As soon as the court was opened yesterday his Honor the Recorder proceeded to sentence the pri- soners who were remanded during the week. Bugene Todd, who pleaded guilty to an attempt at burglary, was sent to tne State Prison for one year. George Ferrison pleaded guilty wo larceny from the person, io stealing a gold watch and chainon the 8d inst., worth $200, the property of Algernon 8, Leonard, a citizen of Conncoticut, who accompanied Ferrison to ariuking saloons, The Recorder, in passing sentence, said that the prisoner was @ noto- rious panel thief; that 1t was @ pity that his respect- able father had such @ villapous son, and that he (the Recorder) was doing Ferrison’s wile @ service by sending him to the State Prison for four years and eleven mouths, A SHOOTING CASE IN THE TRIRD AVENUE—A CUS- TOM HOUSE OFFIOBR IN AN UNENVIABLE ATTI« TUDE. P . The first case tried by be jury was an indictment for felonious assault au Archibald, who stated that he had been engaged for the last six years as an engraver by Harper Broth- ers. Anumber of witnesses were examined, who testified substantially that Wiilam Sheenan was in Joseph Snyder’s lager beer saloon, No, 514 Third avenue, on Sunday evening, tho 20th of March. While im the saloon Sheenan Sechanged angry leQuadi words with Charles Archibala and Williain (an inspector in the Custom House), and after the: went out on the sidewalk blows were exchanged. ; As Sheenan was lifting his arm to strike another biow, Archinald, who accompanied Sheenan and | MeQuade to the street, urew a pistol and ' fired, the bail lodging in the back of | mis hand, Dr. Purdy extracted tne ball in | the station house. Two youths named Dennis and Seabury, Who were passing at the time of the dill. culty, saw @ litle man, about the size of Archibald, fire the shot, but they could not positivelyidentify the accused. Sergeant Connelly and oilcer Grace testified that they arrested the parties and found a pistol, fully loaded, in the saloon belonging to nyder, the evidence of the witnesses for the prosecution, Archibaid testified that he never carried frearms in attery against Charles | The testimony for the defence wholly contradicted | The Heavy and Light Weight Champion ship—Mace and Coburn—Edwards and Collins. The supporters of the prize ring are imgreat glee because of the approaching days when Mace and Coburn and the littie’uns, Edwards ana Collins, ‘Will meet im the “squared circle’? to contend for the mastery and the ttle of champion at their respective weighta, The principals frst named have done much toward improving their health—knitting together the muscles and sinews that OOVER THEIR LIMBS that they may be in preper trim for the event of May liy-bat yet they Mave much to do in this the three weeks to make great changes and exercise effect upon their physique. Coburn has varied th monotony of everyday work by short jaunts out the city; yet until the few days preceding the fight he will be found at the Observatory Hotel. Mace will leave his quarters’ on Twenty-third street on Monday, when he goes to NI IGHTON, 8, Toy there to remain until he leaves for the scenc of the anticipated condict. He will be suitably introduced to the Isianders, as on Monday evening his frends have arranged for him @ complimentary exhibition at New Brighton, which without doubt will be well attended by all who love a feast of boxing. The match for the Ugut weight championship be- tween Billy Kdwards and Tim Collins is also pro- greasing nicely. Neither has gone intd active maine: as yet, but Tim has been dolug a good amount of work daily, aud has already decreased his weight several pounds. He has been tendered two or three exhibitions recently, the last at boston, where he had a OAPITAL AUDIENCE to witness the sparriog, which is spoken of as having been very fine. Shortly he will go into Wwalning quarters, where, under the eye of aa ex- perienced mentor, he expects to suitably ft himseif Jor the work in prospect. Kawards will leave tho city on Monday and go to CYPRESS HILL GROVE, L. 1., to commence preparatory work under the care of Dooney Harris. ts last bow to the pubite before he is seen in the ring will be atthe New York Ca- sino, Mott and Houston streeis, this evening, when an entertainment gotten up for his beneiit wil take place. ‘Ibe feature of the occasion will be an en- counter between the beneficiary and the newly ar- rived britisher, Arthor Chambers, which promises his life, and never was arrested tn his life, On the evening iu question he was in the saloon waiting for his wife, Who was visiting Soyder’s sick wife; Shee- han came in, and being so much under the intluence of liquor the saloon keeper re- fused to give him any more drink, which led Sheehan to be very noisy. McQuade then came down stairs and succeeded in putting him out; but Archibaid positively asserted that he re- mained in the saloon during the altercation between Sheehan and McQuade, and did not know anything about tne shooting until the officer came in to arrest him. In bis cross-examination Archibald said that he got work from Harpers on Saturday to have finished on Monday morning, which necessitated bis working on Sunday, which he did the mostof the evening of the shooting. ‘The Recorder observed that it Was not material to the case what, the custom of the Harpers was in Tespect to giving out work. Joseph Snyder, the proprietor of the saloon, con- firmed the statement of Archibald, and reiterated the important stacement that the accused remaimed in the saloon all the time. ‘Wiliam McQuade swore that Archibald was not on the sidewalk, aud just before be leit the stand stated that two men were also endeavoring to get Sheehan out of the salovn. ‘The Assistant District Attorney recalled Sheehan, who velementiy and unquaiifedly contradicte MeQuad: Witnesses were examined to show that archibald was a qaiet and inoffensive man, Mr. Sullivan, in his argument to the jury, com- meated in severe terms upon what he believed to be the gross perjury comiuittea by McQuade, The jury, aiter considerable deliberation, ren- dered a verdict of gulity of an assault with @ dan- gerous weapon with intent to do bodily harm. Archibald protested that he was Innocent, and told nis Honor that Sheehan attempted to extort money from him, bathe said he would stand his t before a jury. The Recorder postponed the sentence ull next week. AN ACQUITTAL.

All the courts adjourned yesterday out of respect tothe memory of Mr. Bernard Hughes, the well known member of the bar, who died on Thuraday. In the General Term of the Supreme Court the death of Mr, Hughes was announced by ex-Judge D. P. Barnard, who made a few eulogistic remarks on the life and character of the deceased. He was followed by the eloquent Corporation Counsel, William C, De Witt, who said:— May it please the Court—I cannot let pass this last and only opportunity without saying a few words of aflectionate remembrance of Bernard Hugbes. I have been so long and so intumately ac- quainted with him; £0 often the recipient of his wit and humor, and he 18 60 conspicuously associated with such pleasant scenes and memories in my lite shat 1t does not seem right that I sheuld let him sink into his grave without some formal acknowledg- ment of my bereavement, Mr. Hughes was & product of mature.

STONE The Fatal Riot at Tivoli, Dutchess Cousty— Particulars of the Adray. PovGUKERPSIB, April 14, 1871. You have already received oy telegraph the fact that @ young man, eighteen yeara of age, nained William Marley, has been stoned to death at Tivoli, Dutchess county. The particulars of the affuir did not reach the authorities tth yesterday, altnough the fracas, or, rather, riot (fora number were engaged in 1t), occurred last Monday evening. As yet the name of the murderer has not trauspired, though it is believed to be one Edward Hawver, ‘That individual cannot be found, Yesterday Coroner Andrus commenced an investigation of the brutal agair, and below 1 give a condensed report of all the evidence thus far taken. Laurence Waters testi- fled that on last Monday evening he saw Marley standing in the roadway, near General Lasner’s store, at Tivoll, with several others, He heard some one say, “I can lick them Irish sonsof —.” f suw Wenater Smith strike Patsey McAlister, and then as Wiiness ran away he saw some one runing north with @ club. Penander Stickles testified that at nine o'clock last Monday eveniug he saw de ceased in General Lasher’s store and im an hour and a haif afterwards saw him = tying in the roadway motionless. Patrick McAlister testi. fied thaton the evening in question he was with William Mar Jr, at Garchica Hotel and drank a couple of glasses of beer, and soon alter witness and deceased went to Lasher’s store. They stood taikmmg with Michael Mariey and Lawrence Neannae han, when a crowd einerged trom Rogers’ Hotel crying, “You Irish sons of —-, we are ready for you;” they had their hands behind backs; witness went imto the mid- the road; when some one knocked at him, and he knocked somebody down and thea fell himseif, when he saw three or four approaching with clubs; William Marley was then settiug on & horseblock in froat of Lasher’s store. Lawrence Monnahan testified to seeing some one strike Pat Mcallister; Webster Smita ran down the hill towards the crowd, saying “he could lick the whole party.” A brother of the deceased testiiled he saw Ed. Haw- ver with a club in his hand; when he was near me he sald, ‘Where is that son of a ——?” he then went on down the road; saw some one dressed in black pick up a stove and throw it; he was about 81x feet from me when he turew it, and immediately my brother William, who was standing beside me, cc Cg his back: he aid’ not know who threw the ston i ‘Thomas J.

The above was all the evidence of importance taken on Thorsday, when the inquest Was adjourned till Saturday noon, at twelve o'clock. A man named Oscar Potts has been heard to say that Edward Hawver struck the fatal blow, and has therefore been subpenaed to attend the inquest, Tne evidence thus far does not seem, however, to fasten the crime on Hawver; nevertheless he cannot betound, The village 18 greatly excited over the case. AN inhabitant there describes the fracas as an Irish and American fight. A YOUTETUL ForGun, Arrest of a Metropelitan Criminal in San Fran- cisco and Arrival nt the Central Office.

THE LEG. S AWD CHANGES OF AUCTIONEERS, New York, Aprii 13, 1871. To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD: — Without, of course, invending It, your article of {his morning in reference to auctioneers 18 calcue lated to misicad, Of the merits of the case to which you refer I am not conversant, bat presume it must have been decided upon a technicality. The law allows two and one-half per cent for selling goods at auction, and for transacting this business it have an office, which might be in his own residence, | But the services of an auctioneer are seldom asked for merely crying and Knocking down to the highest bidder in @ great city ike ours, although such is the case in country places and in Amal towns. The necessities of trade have made it necessary forthe auctiuneer to assume a much jnore important an’ responsibie position than the law originally contemplate, as witness our trade sales of almost every species of merchandise, For these the auctioneer must hire salesrooms, provide labor, turnish catalogues ana do the advertising, He must aiso guarantee gaies, Could he do all this for two and one-hall per cent? Impossible, No business man asks or expects it, But anotier con- dition. Mr A. has @ house fail of turniture which he Wishes to sell at Auction. He of vourse wante it ad- vertised, He wants a catalogue inate of it for ihe convenience of bidders. fe must have labor to handie and deliver the gooda, ac.

It frequently happens that in sncb sa the advertising dione aiounts to over ten per cent, and Ido not think the average proiits of the auc: tioneer are over two und # ail per eent.

At the Stock Exchange the day was characterized by the greatest buoyancy and activity. In fuct, the dealings were tlie largost for any day since the inau- guration of the present extraordinary bull cam- paign, ‘here are perhaps as many as a dozen well organized cliques in the market ranging in power and wealth from the heavy guns of the Vanderbilt pariy down to the small fry who form the pools in Mariposa and like low-priced stocks, Moreover the speculative mania |s spreading throughout the community, and not only are the ‘lame ducks” and veterans of many @ campaign back in the street again, but hundreds ‘Whose faces are new to the Long Koom and brokers’ | ofices. The upward current of prices assumed new Strength under the continued operauions of me cliques and the large purchases of outsiders, The “bears” shake their heads and point to tre inflation of prices, bat ail to no purpose, for every venture they make in hopes of a oreak | turns out futile andaloss, The outsiders, whom | they argued into reailzing weeks ago, ud that they have sacrificed a great deal of money by selling at that me. In fact, the rise has been so steady und prolonged that speculators have in mauy instances taken a profit of a few per cent, only to buy back at a@bigher price and sell out once more and return at a stil liigher stage, netling ten per cent when they might have got twenty.

In fact, the whole market 1s under control of the cliques, now that all danger of a spring stringency | in money has passed by and that the summer pre- sents a clear field for their operations. There will | be no end of rumors of extra dividends and favora- ble leasings. If the cliques own the stocks and the | public are out of them the dividends and leases Will be made. If the public get the stocks at high prices } the dividends and jeasings will be indefinitely post- poned. HIGHEST AND LOWESr PRICES.
