CIRCUIT COURT DECISIONS. Judge Woodrud has rendered decisions In the sub- foinec cases:— Taxes on Meney Received in Cott. Wells, Fargo & Co. vs, Sheridan Snook.—The plaintiMs are engaged in the express business, and have received therein large amounts in coined money and large amounts in legal tender cvrrency. They are also engaged In the transportation of pas- sengers, &c., by stage coach, and therein also have received coined money and legal tender currency. Being thereto required by the assessor of the proper istrict, but protesting that they were not bound by jaw soto do, the plaimtufs have made ret such receipts, discruninaung between coin and lega Wender currency, and having refused to pay the tax upon the amount of premium im coin or excess of Value of ihe coin over the same sum im legal tender currency, the proper officer, clothed Witt authority trom the defendant as collector, ap- at (heir piace of business to levy upon their ened so to levy for the collection he taX upon such premiums, whereupon pro- testing that tie execution was illegal, and that they Were ot by law chargeable with such tax on pre- miums, the Ua paid to the defendant the amount on the 16th of Ju y, 1868, $12,598 82, and brought this action to recover’ back the same.’ It is not insisted that the tax was illegally charged if *+hsts or returns of the gross amount receipts” re- quired to be made to the assessor by _s act of 1864, aud “gross Py of such express business” in section 104, and “gross receipis of such railroad, stage coach or other vehicle” in section 103 are within the require- ments of section 9 of the act of 1866. The last named section requires that returns or sis of mcome or articles or objects charged with an internal tax discrimin between receipts in coin and receipts in legal tender currency. Whatever returns are included within this descrip- Yon the Uungs or values $0 returned are subject to the assessment which was made in this case. To that extent, atleast, it is conceded the case of the Pacific lastrance Company vs. Soule (7 Wallace, 485) ls conclusive. The Supreme Court there held distinctly that the person receiving income or other Mioweys Subject Lo tax or duty in coined money, and making bis return under the ninth section Of the act of 1860, is to pay the tax in legal tender currency, and that the difference in value between coined money and iegal teud: cy must be added to his return when money, and the tax or duly must be ad paid on the amount tims increased.

THE BROOKLYN POLI The Question of Salary Agitated. The question of police salaries is still agitating the members of that force in Brookiyn. Under the act of the Legislature, passed when the municipal rights of that city were restored in 1870, it was pro- Vided that the salaries as then existing, under the Metropolitan Police law, should be reduced from January 1, 1871, to the following rates:—Captains, $1,000; sergeants, $1,200; patrolmen, $1,000; Goermen, $300.

NOTARIES PUBLIC. The Duties and Liabilities of Notaries Public and Their Importance to a Commercial Communi- ty—Important Judicial Charge end Verdict. A case of considerable importance to the commer- cial community was tried on Friday last in the Marine Court, before Judge Shea. The question at issue tarns entirely upon the duties of notaries pubile and in what cases they may not act up to or exceed these duties. AS @ general thing this Is a Subject not much inquired inte or understood, and from wits eause, perhaps, more than any other, sometimes compels an appeal to the courts for adjuai- cation. ‘The present case arises from an action instituted by Joseph Derrickson and H. A. Bartlett against Henry R. Orvis, The action was bronght by the Pplaintif’s, paper merchants, No. 30 Beekman street, this city, to revover damages against the defendant, a notary public, and clerk im the Security Bank, for protesting a note witheut ofm- cially presenting it for payment. It appears that Mr. Bartlett, one of the plaintiffia, made the note in question, for the sum of $548 86, payable to the order of Wiliam J. Dane, who transferred ,it to parties in New Hampshire. The note was dated July 11, 1870, and payable two months after date at the plaintiffs’ store, No. 30 Beekman street. It fell due on the lath September, and en that date the plaintifs, as they allege in their testimony, were ready to redeem it if presented for payment, and had for purpose a certified check on the Broadway Bank. The note, as the plaintiff's ailegea, had not been presented jor payment, and to their great surprise they learned, next day, that it was protested by che defendant, who alleged in his pro- test that 1t had been presented and payment retased, The plainutls, the payee of the not nd several attachés of the plaintits’ store, were examined as to the presentation ef the note, all of whom testu- fied that no demand was made on the 14th. It ap- peared that the defendant did not present the note personally, but sent it by a youth, sixteen years old, who was clerk In the Security Bank, and not in. the employment of the defendant. Tae young man tes- tifled that he took the note to No. 30 Beexman street and demanded payment on it, and was told by some one behind the counter that Mr. Bartlett, the maker, Was out of town, and that it would be attended to the next day, upon which representation he took the note back to the defendant, who had it protested the nextday. Mr. Bartlett, corroborated by several Witnesses, testified that ue Was not out of town on Uhe idth, but was in and out of the store all day, and remained 1p tne store from three to #ix o'clock in the aiternoon, when, as Was alleged by the defend- ant, the noie was presenied for payment. After the tes‘imony was closed nis Honor Judge Shea de- livered the following GENTLEMEN OF THE JURY—This is a very impor- tant case, and one that calls in a specia! sense for your careful consideration, The deiendant in tuis case 1s a public oficer, and, being such, { charge you that ail services done by him in his omt!cial capa- city should be, priaa /acic, considered as In harigony wi h his oticial oath, The presuinption ts that he is. fit to perform, and has performed honestly and faithfully, the duties devolving upon him, and you dust start with that presumption. A violation of oilictal auty by a@ notary public is by starute made a grave oifence. omces with which @ commercial community has to ao than that of a notary public. Upon the tnteill- gent and faithiul performance of the duties devol ing upon such an oficer depends at times the repu- tation of business men, and any delinquency on the part of such an oficer in the discharge of his duties, hich Occasions Injury Lo ethers, constinuces & of legal redress against him, and for which he should be held responsible. The siatute is very explicit concerning the duties of notaries pubic to the presentation of commercial paper for p: is Chaiged with of his oficial duty, Which misconduct 1s alleged to ye had an injurious eifect, tending to injure tue eter of the pluintuits, young men, 1n their busi- ness relations. I pray you to give prominence to this phase of the case. I charge you, us law, tuat to say of a trader HE IS INSOLVENT, or has permitted an act to be done from whicb in- solvency might be reasonabiy inferred, is hvellous, and in such @ case it 1s not nec ry Wo prove Special damages to sustain an action at law. Where such an inference may injure the business reputa- tuon of atrader he hmseit knows, not. It spreads insidlously and silently in the business community in which he deais, and may aifect his credit to a ruinous degree, and yet no proof may be elicited upon which special damages couid be intelligibiy predicated. The injury accomplished 1s general, seldom special. THE REPUTATION OF A BUSINESS MAN in a business community is one ef the most tender and delicate ré.ations of society with wich we cao deal, the sacredness of which all business men se: silively appreciate. We are not at liverty to trifle with it, because even a casual remark might greatly. atlect it, se tat the notes of a business man might be Ubrown out of bank when lodged there for discount, and yet the cause to him mightve unknown. Should you fund, after due consideration of the case, in favor of the plaintiffs, you will, be careful to look at all the clrcumstances connected with it, so that you may not exceed what might ve considered a fair compensation; but if you tind tuat malice exists then you will go beyond what 1s termed generai damages and give exemplary damages, in order to deter others from committing like olfence THE WHOLE OF THE CASE Di upon the fact whetier payment of the £ mauded at the proper place and on we proy J charge you that to ge into the store where U nove Was inade payable and ask the porter or auy has siore for payment is neither a prese note nor a demand for its pay- ment. The maker must be sought, of the book- Keeper, or Such person in the place as a business man Would call upon to demand payment on a Dbiil or note, Shat and that ouly is-an intelligible ae- mand. I would not intimate in the slighiest degree that the boy who says he presented the note at the in the plainuas’ store told an untruth. The question ior you to consider is, did he go there on that day with the note in question and in a proper busi- ness manner intelligently make his errand Known, So that the responsible parties in the store knew what he wanted. You have heard the evidence upon that point. It isa question of fact for you to determine, and upon which I intimate no epimion. It isnot necessary for me to charge you as to the delegation of power from the notary to the boy; there is no dispute by the respective counsel as to that point, It you find that there was A-PROPER DEMAND MADE, that will end the matter, and your verdict will be for the defendant. But should you find that a pro- or demand was not made, that the attention of tie per parties was not oirected to the demand—aud y 1uiT’s evidence is Lo the effect thata check y to redeem the note When presented—then your verdict will be for the plainturt, [tis for you to say whieh of these conflicting statements is rue, As to the QUESTION OF DAMAGES, no special damages have been alleged. does not require proof of special dat tain @ case like tls, because it is not reasonable to expect other than general damages out of proof fwoin which general injury might reasonably be in- ferred to testthe injury inflicted, The jurisdiction of thus court 18 limited to $1,000. Ido not intend to intimate by that, should you find fer the plaintir any special amount. ‘hat is a matter wich will be enurely governed by your own honest, intelligent convictions a8 business men. There 1s ho evidence, 80 lar as Ihave seen, of express malice or of any intent to inflict an injury upon the plainim The injury, if any, resulted from placing a dependence upou the boy who was entrusted with this important duty, and It is for you to say whether he perjormed thal duty Intelligibly or unintelugibly.

A A Woman Marries One Man and Claims An- other as “Her Own”—Six Years’ Separa- tion Causes Court Courting—Mis taken Identity-A New Method of Obtaining a Husband. Karly in the spring of 1864 two youn? aspirants, who had passed through that stage of lite known under the common tulle of “courting days,” de- vermined to secure that desired desideratum of all human beings, “happiness,” by becoming united in the holiest of holy ties, and join their hands in wed- lock. The little town of Vestietin, in Poland, was the scene of the festivities, and Louis Goldschmidt, son of one of the tallest Poles, with Chenes Lapitzowi, @ healthy looking brunette, naving all the fervor and impetuosity of vigorous maiden- hood, were the couple who were to act the princi- pal parts of the drama. As in all, or at least most, marriages, Chenes did not improve in her temper- ment after she had adopted ber irusband’s good name. They were BOTH OF THE SEED OF ABRAHAM and the troublesome question of theology, as in some imstances where the parties are each of a differmrt creed, was settled, leaving no room for controversy. In a short time Louis discovered that his wife wes too near faithfully chronicled to his friends to be either ple: sant er conducive to his bappmess—so, after the birth of a duaghter, in 1866, he resolved to remove to London, England, and thus at once take his young wife from among her troublesome friends, secure his own peace of mind, and also secure a po- sition among the learned in matters of law and Jurispradence.

Chenes was now thrown wpon her own resource Selling her chattels, she returned to Poland; but not finding the heartiess Louis after a year’s search, sue returned again to London. Here she remained antl tive we ago, Wien, learning from some source considered to be authentic, that her husband Was In America, She took & passage in the steain- ship Peunsyivauia for herseli und daughter, and came on to New York, landing here on Moaday last There are few more responsible | at Castle Garden, Being lower ip her purse than in her determination, she applied to good natured Casserly to assist her tn her seareh for ber husband, After a deai of labor to ascertain the whereabouts of some friends, who were iormerly domestics in her tath house, and who, she stated, saw her married, certalued that a man bearing the name of Wolf Goldstein could be sound at 182 For- sytu street, Thither Chenes went, and at once declared the in- dividual to pe her ewn beloved, Great, however, was her surprise to learn that he repudiated the idea of such a thing, declaring that he nad only been im vis country lour mouths from Poland; be had .

Chenaes and ber soliciter had brought all the “fraternity” irom Baxter street to swear that they Knew the defendant, and three of them posi- tively swore they saw the “Rabbma” joln their bands in wedioci There were gesticu- lauous and smothered curses by hundreds, but Chenes made but poor headway. Chenes swore that the reason he had changed his name from Goldscamidt to Goldstein was to marry anotacr woman and the better to elude her vigilance. Goldstein, hewever, produced a passport showing that he did not leave Polund until last Sep- tember; that he was a supject of THE EMPEROR FRANCIS JOSEPH OF AUSTRIA, and had never been in she had tives as residents oftuat place. Fimally Chenes pro- duced @ photograph which it was said represented her husband. It was not Goldstein, the de- fondant, however, and in a few minutes a German came forward and said the person represented by the picture was an old friend of ms and was not a Poie at all, but a thoroughbred Teu- ton, with all the Teutonic qualifications. This was what Howe, defendant's counsel, was waiting fer, and in a few moments he showed that THE POOR WOMAN WAS ALTOGETHER MISTAKEN; that she did not know her husband, and that’ it would be better for her to “try again.” After a hearty laugh at Chenes’ confusion, the Judge inumuted that to mistake a stranger fora imend m_ the* street was an excusable error; but for a wife not to know her own husband was beyond even his comprehension. He supposed that she had married somebody; but he advised that Mr. Casserly should send her back across the Atlantic, as he thought she would be nearer the tracks of her peculiar spouse. Chenes leit the court m great agony of mind, followed by the host of perjurers who had come to swear poor Géldstein inte a singuiariy hasty marriage. DRY GOODS MARKEL. The season is supposed to advance, though to all outward appearances it goes backward, Rallroads have been again blocked with snow, and commerce, that to a greater or less degree at this period of the year is influenced by fine weather, waits for the harmony of the elements. There 1s still delay on the part of Western buyers, because of high rates of freight and the advanced prices of do- mestic cotton goods. AS the ruling prices in this department are caused by deficiency of supply it is not likely that there will be any declipe immediately, Taking all things into con- sideration, the condition of the market 1s fairly ac- tive. The opinion that New York can be greatly injured by the cheaper freight rates of railroads centring in Philadelphia would seem to have little Toundation, since, wh lay be done to AWAY from the metropolis, New York remains the great centre of commerce. Manulacturers, agents and importers are bringing out their new styles of spring goods, and from ail appearances there will be a brisk movement within a few days. In domestic cottons there is no decided change, though the tendency is upward. In printing cloths there is a slight decline. Unbleached sheetings and shirtings are firm, with considerable acuvity for standard, Bleached sheetings and shirtings show no decline and are in cood demand.

Woollens required by the clothiers for their spring trade are active; there 1s not a large supply o1 light Weights, and the mills are chiefly occupied with seasenable goods. There are some new styles of cassimeres shown by agents. Prices are firm, and stock not large. The importers are busy with their spring importa- tions of dress goods and silks.

Two Brathers Go on a Spree—One Finds the Other Dead by His Side in the Morning. About a week ago John A. Dalrymple and his brother, Hudson Dalrymple, natives of New Jersey, returned from California, where they had been hiv- ing for some years, and secured reoms at 71 Cort- landt street. They soon commenced drinking to excess, and floated about between Newark and Mor- ristown, N. J., and this city. On Friday the brothers returned te their hotel from Newark, Down occupying the same room, During the evening John made repeated visits to the par, drinkin heavily each time, and aiter ten o'clock he was no! seen again below stairs. At six o'clock yesterday morning Hudson Dalrymple awoke and ‘made an effort to arouse his brother, but without success, and, calling Thomas Levis, the barkeeper, they FOUND THAT JOHN WAS DEAD, Coroner Hermann was subsequently motified, when John Beach, M.
