Tho Collector of the Port ond the Marshal of the District on Their Musele, Important Decision by Judge Blatchford. THE COLLECTOR TRIUMPHANT. We give below the decision of Judge Blatenford, rendered yesterday in the United States District Court, on the question, recently argued, whether the Collector o1 the Port or the Murshal of the Dis- trict shall nave custody of goodsand property seized under government process:— THE COLLECLOR TRIUMPANT. The United Slates vs, One Case, coutaining Sitks and other Property.—Judge Biatcniord yesterday rendered his decision in the above case, Tie learned Sudge says:—The libel of information in this case ers tiat the property proceeded aguinst was geized Ob Waters navigabie from the sea by vessels of ten or more tons burden by the Collector of Cus- toms tor the Port and collection district of the city of New York, as forieited to the United States for vio~ tions of the 24th and 6sth sections of the act of arch 2, 1799, in relation to duties on imports aud nage. The prayer of the information is, that due process issue in that behalf, as well of attach- ment, to bring the said property within the custody of the court, as of mouition, to all pares in i- terest, to appear on the return of such process and auly intervene herein, by claim and plea to the remises,’’ and that the property be condemned by ecree of forfeiture to ihe use of the United States, On the filing of the libel of information a writ was Assued to the Marshal of the Southern district of New York, commanding jim to attach the property and to detain 1 in his custody until the further order of the court respecting It, and to give due notice, &c. The writ wus returuable September 27, 1870. The return toit made by the Marshal on that day ‘was as {ollows:— THE MARSIIAL’S RETURN, I certify that after due diligence I have been Gnabie to attach the property described in tho within monition, and to detain the same in my cus- tody. GEORGE H. SHARPE, United States Marshal. An afidavit 1s now preseated to the Court on the part of the United States made by a deputy collecior ‘of customs al the port of New York, lt sets ferth that such deputy coliector has, under the Collector, the care and custody of all goods seized within this Plager on account of alleged violations of the cus- ms revenue laws, and of the institutions of pro- ceedings for the recovery and enlorcement of tues, forfeitures and penalties under such laws; that there been ever since April, 1869, aud was for @ long time prior thereto, the Custom House at the port of New York, a room especiaily assigned for the storage Of setzed goods; that there are employed In said Toom # storekeeper, an opener and packer anda lsvorer, all under salary; that until recently, ever wince April, 1862, and for a long time prior thereto, ib was the custom, where goods had been seized ud placed in the seizure room and a sult had been itituted for their condemnation, foribe Marshal of fhe district to call at the Custom House and make in- Quiry if the goods were in the possession of the Col- lector, and thereupon to make return upon the monition of the attachment of the goods proceeded pgainst; that some few months since the Marshal Made claim to remove from the seizure room and Es the custody of the Collector goods against which ie held & monition; that thereupon such deputy collector was led TO INVESTIGAR THE LAW, Bod to consult avith the District Attorney of the Dnited States; that such investigation and consultae tion resulted in the Collector's deciding to retain ssion of the goods until final adjudication, un- leas otherwise ordered y the Court; that after some time had elapsed, and after varieus attempts to procuie the submission of the question to tne de- cision of the Court, the Marshal, on the presentation Of a monition, and in one or two instances of an alias monition, demanded possession of the goods therein described; that thereupon said deputy col- lector gave to the Marshal a certficate signed by bim im substance as follows:— ; COLLECTOR'S CERTIFIOATE. ‘This may certify that the goods (giving marks, &c.) described in the monition now exhibited to me by the United States Marshal, dated , are in the seizure room of the Custom House, and in the cus- tody of the Collector of the port of New York. In accordance with section 31 of the act of July 18, 1868, nd act under the advice of the United States trict Attorney, the Coliector declines to deliver the same to the order of the United States Marshal, at Holds the same to abide adjudication, subject to e order of the Court; that a certiticate, the same Jn substance as the foregoing, was given in the resent case to the Marsnal or his deputy upon os agherttcot 3 the monition and demanding the foods proceeded against; that a like certificate has mn given in like circumstances in other cases which have been instituted since this ques:ion was Qrst raised; that all the goods seized are kept na reproof room, without any charge for storage or insurance, the only expense being cartage to the selzure room and cooverage fer ieaking casks; that it has been the practice of such deputy collector to fe in all cases where goods for which a suit as been commenced ave been for any cause released a direction for their release from the Marshal; that such was the prac- tice in April, 1869; that the deputy collector has continued to require such «direction as being evi- dence of the direction of the Court in the premises, and also evidence that the Marsialhas received all Tees aud coats to whic he is entitied, aud that it has been the practice to deliver goods which have been condemned to the Marshal or his order for sale. An alias monition, with directions like these in the ori- inal motion as to the attachment and detention of he, property bas been issued in the case to the Mar- shal. On the records 10 the cause and the foregoing affidavits motion 1s now made to the Court, on the t of the United States, for an order that such alias monition be so modttied, in respect to the clause therein contained, commauding the Marshal to attach the property and to detain it in 4s custody until the further order of the Court respecting it, as to coniurm to the provisions of the thirty-first section of the act of July 18, 1866 (14 U. 8. Stat. at Large, 186), or that he make return thereto, Stating the that such property was found in the custody of the Collector, and is left in his custody mader the provisions of said act. Such motion 1s made on notice to the Marshal, and 1s opposed by the Marshal. Judge Blatchford then enters upon a review of the course of legislation and judicial decision on the subject Involved. fle conciudes at fellows:— JUDICIAL REVIEW. Nor is the question one which involves the juris- diction or authority of the Court over the ves that is Ri osecuted, or its jurisdiction over the suit 1n rem, ‘he property having been seized as forfeited, and the seizure having becn adopted by the United States by bringing the suit im rem to enforce the ferieiture, the Court has jurisdiction to decree such forfeiture, and jurisdiction and authority to order the property, under the sth section of the act of 1799, to be delivered to the claimant on appraise- ment aud bond and tiie payment of duties, and to cause the property, under the vith section oi the same act, if not bonded, to be, when condemned, gold by the Marshal or other proper officer of the Court, even though the property remains in the possession ot the Collector until adjudication, Tue views of Mr, Justice Story and of Chief Justice Taney are sound in reference to a case where, in fact, the Collector, aud not the Marshal, is to have custody after proces. ‘The preperty is, in contem- plation of law, efter process, in tle custody of the Court, although the Marshal does not take it Into his custody, provided it remains in custody, under a seizure for forfeiture, while the proceedings in court against it are pending. ‘(he Collector is ITS OFFICIAL KEEPER for the Court, after process, and the Court has after process as full control over it in the hands of the ry ‘or, and as full power to compel obedience by the Coilecter to all orders of the Court respecting it, as if it were in the hands of the Marshal under pro- cess, Such appears to have been the view of Judge Bet's in respect to custody id the Collector after process under the rules of tuls Court in regard to the summary proceedings in rem iu behalf of the United States where the matter in demand did not exceed fifty doliars: and it is a necessary view in respect to all property prosecuted for forfeiture, where the custody after process is given by statute to ihe Collector, It follows that not only is the provision of the fourth section of the act oi 1792 abrogated by the act of 1506, but the ninth rule in admiralty, in view of the provision of the act of 1860, does not apply to cases like the presentone. Such cases are, in the lapgugge of the rule, “otherwise provided for by statute.” THE MARSHALS DUTY. Such being the interpretation of the act of 1866, what reilef isto be granted on the motion in this case? [think the proper course ts to amend the ailas mouition so that it shail command the Marsial to attach the property by leaving with the Collector, or other person having the property in custody, a copy of the monition, and also a notice requiring such Collector or other persou to detain such pro- perty in custody until thetfurther erder of the Court respecting It, and to giv3 due notice, &c. This will be the proper monition to be issued in all cases where property is under siezure as forfeited for vio- fations of the customs laws, and is in custody of the Be Oollector.or other principal officer of the cus- Ooms.

Van Ecten, whose remarkable torgerios have been the talk of Wall street for some months, Itwas well understood that other arrests of persons con- nected with Van Eeten*would follow. A prominent mem- ber of the wring,” George W. Chadwick, was caught on Thuracay night and lodged in the Tombs.

On ‘Change to-day wheat was unsettied and lower, and any attempt to press sales would have resulted inadecline, The cottou market was more active, but without change in prices, MONEY THREE TO FIVE PER CENT. Money continued easy at four to flve per cent ‘There was very little shifting of loans, and old en- gagements wero generally allowed to stand, In fresh business borrowers on governments were usually supplied at four percent, with some ex- ceptions at five, Onthe other hand, while borrow- row on stocks generally paid five per cent, good houses, with che better class of miscellane- ous collaterals, were accommodated atfour per cent. ‘Toward the close of banking hours there was some pressure to lend money after accounts had been geverally made up, and balances under such cir- cumstances were not placed at better than three percent. The general rates of the day were, howe ever, as firstindicted. The paper market is about cleared of the strictly first class grades, but the de- mand still continues, the would-be buyers being the country banks which have large balances with their correspondents in this city. Occasionally a “gilt- edged” banker’s acceptance passes at 6 per cent, but the regular quotation is 61 a7 per cent for the ordinary run of prime notes and acceptances, FOREIGN EXOHANGE ADVANCED. ‘The forelgn exchange market was fairly active, owing to the demand for remittances by Saturday's steamers and in the absence of commercial and bond bills (particularly the latter, which used to form a large portion of the supply) the leading bankers advanced their rates an eighth per cent, The following were the quotations at the close: — Sterling, sixty days, commercial, 108% a 10914; good to prime bankers’, 10934 a 109%; do. short sight, 1103¢ alloy; Antwerp, 5.161{ a 5.1234; Switzerland, 5.15 a 5.11%; Hamburg, 35% a 364; Amsterdam, 4076 a 413; Frankfort, 4074 a 413¢; Bremen, 78% a 7934; Prussian thalers, 7144 a 7174. GOLD STRONG—L11 A 111%. ‘The rise in foreign exchauge started gold up from 111 to 1114, at which there was a pause, owing to advices of a slight advance in the London quotation for five-twenties, which were reported 9114. Eventu- ally the latter settled back to 9134, and, the full force of the original induence asserting itself, gold advanced to and closed at 111 7-16. ‘The course of the market Is shown in the taple:— -il il A.

The Southern list was mere active and generally higher. It seems to be settled that the acting Goy- ernor of North Carolina cannot defeat the wish of the Legislature and people for a State Convention, and hence North Carolinas were in good request at @ further advanee tn prices. The Ku Klux outrages hear Columbia seem to have their depressing tndu- ence on the South Carolinas, which showed a strong Tecuperative tendency, and were 134 per cent higher than when the news of these outrages reached the market. The Tennessees were firm on the farther reduction of the State debt by the transfer to the ‘Treasury of several millions of bonds, tendered by railway corporations in exchange for mort- gages on thelr roads held by the State. Tne Louisiunas maintain a steady, firm undertone, and are still in favor with Investors 1n Europe, whence orders are received by nearly every steamer. The Virginias also show more strength and some activity on account of a growing belief that the State will resume payment ere long.

Judge Curtis patiently listened to allthe evidence, and after having made fair score, ceclared Rudolphe the winner, So ended the first contest of billiards in the Marine Court. WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE.
