UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT. The Constitutio Application for pilector. ity of the Income Tax— Injunction Against the before Judge Benedict. Daniel C, Robbins vs. James Freeland, Collector, éc.—Mr, Robbins made an application for an injunc- Mon to restrain the Collector from collecting $586 of jncome tax. The case, which has been heretofore published, came up for argument yesterday morn- ing, When Mr. M. Winslow submitted the following pofnts in support of the application:— First—The tax assessed upon the income of plain- ti was uncoustiiational, by reason of its being a direct ta. Scond—The tax was embraced within the words Atlon oF other direct tax,'? In section 9, para. Lof the consutution, Articie 1, i 2, paragraph 3 of the constitution provides hat Representatives and direct taxes shall be ap- ortloned amoung the several States according to their severai numbers, Article 4, section 9, paras grapa 4 of the constitution directs that no eapita- tion or direct taxes sould be laid uniess in propors on to the census or enumeration hereinbefore di- recied to be taken. That such tax was uot laid ac- cording to such census, although tt was taken in G0 by virtue of au act of Congress approved May » 1860, Such tax was, therefore, in violation of the constitution, and the acts of Congress in passing it were unconstitutional and void, aud the Ouliector should i ¢ restrained trom colleoting tt. Third—INat the plato; has no remedy at law suficient to indemnify him if the Collector shoula be aliowed to distrain and sell his property, as he tareatens to do, The Collector is not suficiently responsible, and the law aoes not provide a resourc& vo indemuify ail the judgments which might be ob- tained against the Collector, and that the Attorney General nas advised the Secretary of tne Treasury that the Internat Revenue Connmissioner is not bound to pay the back taxes illegally collected, and that he might advise bim in ake mauner that he was not bound to reimburse the Coliecter for Judgments obtained against him, since it is includea m the same section and under the same words:—‘'That tie Internal Revenue Commissioner 13 authorized to do 80.” : Fourth—The defendant threatens tf this tax is not paid he wili distrain ana sell the property of piain- uit, That tuls is to deprive plainttt of his property Without due process of law. Counsel quoted from Justice Story’s opintons and Kent’s commentaries for the parpose of showiag what was understuod. in reply, the counsel for the Collector called Judge Benedict’s attention to section 19 of the Laws (Internal Tevenue) of 1960, forbidding an action to distrain the agseasment or collection of taxes. Counsel also quoted the cage of Pailen vs. Kissenger, the decision in which gastained this point. Judge Benedict, at the conclusion of the Ge ment, denied the motion for an injunction, The case will provably be taken to the United States Suy preme Coart. SUPREME COURT—SPECIAL TERM. The Charge of Contempt Against Lawyer Birech. Before Judge Gilbert. Judge Gilbert yesterday denied the motion to have lawyer Samuei Hirsch punished for contempt of Court. 1 was charged that Mr. Hirsch had induced the Court to accept straw bail by certain false state- ments. In rendering the decision Judge Gilpert said that he was satisfied that Mr. Hirsch had acted in good faith, and that he conld see nothing in the case vo lnpeach his character or conduct in the particular trausaction, Mr. Hirsch said that he himseif nad been utterly deceived as to the responsibility of the nondsmen. 2 CITY COURT. Connors fer Johu Gass. Before Judge McCue. John Connors, the fireman, who was indicted on the charge of having murdered John Gass in the East- ern District, on the 24th of May last, was placed on trial yesterday morning. It seems that at a late hour on the night of that date, Gass and a friena named Smith were in Ackley's oyster saloon in Grand street, near the ferry, under the influence of iguor. Connors, who was itn a similar con- dition, entered and shortly afterwards a dis- pute arose between him and ass, The latter finally struck him in the face, where- Upon Connors Knocked the deceased down twice. ‘The parties were separated and Connors was arrested by officer Keyser, who subsequently re- Jeased him at the corner of Fourth street, om condi- uion that he would go home. The prisoner, with the ofticer, returned towards the ferry, and both separ- ated at the corner of First street, Keyser sup- posing that he was gol back to Ackley’s with some iriends whom he had just met. After Connors had leit the saloon with officer Key- ser Gass and hisiriend Smith also lef, went up as far as Third street, then returned and finally started for home along First street. When they had reached South Second streeta man approached from benind and knocked Gass down with aclub. Smitp, who was frightened, ran to the ferry and, sum: moning an oficer, returned to the place, where they found Gass lying tnsensible, but still alive, on the pavement. Suitth toid officer Bell that the pe man with whom Gass had been qnarrelling } dealt the blow. The injured man died on the fol- lowing morning. At the inquest Smith testified that he did not recognize the prisoner as the man who had committed the murder, Connors was dis- charged. He was arrested again, however, and indicted by the Grand Jury. The testimony for the prosecution on the tral did not differ materially from that taken at the inquest and tne proceedings before Justice Waish. The case for the people was closed and Mr. Place opened for the defence, after which the trial was adjourned until this mormmg. Connors’ de- sence is Av absolute denial. Trial of Jol the Murder of THE METHODIST MUDDLE. Dr. Cariton’s Resignation Offered id Re- fused=The Committee Express Their Con. fidence ia Him—The “One Man Power” De- noanced—Final Adjournment ‘The Methodist Book Committee had two private sessions yesterday in the morning, at one of which Dr. Carlton offered lis resignation, to take effect at once, but the following preamble and resolution was promptly and unanimously adopted:— Whereas Dr, Thomas Carlton has tendered his 1 tion, to take effect immediately, Keaolved, That in view of our responsibilities as the giiardi- ans of the interests of the Book Concern, and the importance of hia contiguing at ite head, we cannot consent to accept bie resignation. The Rev, Mr. Van Cleve, who has had very little to Say during’the entire triai, Was so indignant at this exercise Of what he characterized as the “one man power” by Bishop Ames that he delivered an ad- dress strongly against it, He had been, he said, a bfshop man up to this time, but this action nad thoroughly converted him, and he would be hence- lorth in favor of modifications of the E; opacy. Such an exercise of power as Bishop has Toanifested could not be founa anywhere outside the Churen of Rome, ani be was amazed at 1 by a Methouist bishop, Other members also spoke in the same strain, After o brief recess the committee again as- sembled and adopted the following resojution, which shows what they think about Dr, Carlton:— Resolved, That nothing has occurred in the investigatior throush which the Book Committee has passed to tnsette o in ang wise Impatt out eontdenes Im the ebllty, integrt and faithfulness of Dr. Cariten, Agent of the Metbodiat Hook Concern, and that we do moat fully endorse him asa Chris- Uinn gentieman and Church oflcer, whose character is above reproach, This also was unanimonsly adopted, and, alter some litte details had been completed, the commit- igna- vee adjourned without day. And thus we hope the “Methodist Maddie” is ended i uu it comer before Whe General Vomicrence In 184% THE ST. ALBAN’S CHURCH CONTROVERSY, A Church Fair in Which a Fair Contributor Claims To Have Been Treated Untairly. ANEW WAY TO PAY OLD DEBIs. A case of considerable interest to a large portion of our readers, more especially of the fairer and more sympathetic portion of them—the poiuts of which we published some weeks ago—came up be- fore Judge Joseph F, Daly in the Court of Common Pleas yesterday. It was a suit instituted by MRS, ELIZA L. CONSTANT AGAINST THE RECTOR, WARDENS AND VESTRY OF ST. ALBAN’S CHURCH for the recovery of $4,500, which she (plainttf) claims to bave furnished the defendants to make preparations for a fair—to procure goods, &c, The proceeds of this fair were intended to be devoted to the purchase of a lot and subsequently bullding a piace of worship. Mrs. Constant was, it would m from her counsel’s statement, waited upon by Myr. Alburtis, @ warden of St. Alban’s, and he told her of the intended fatr ana expressed a wish that she would take an active part in managing it, ana promised that for any sam she might expend on the project in carrying 1t out to a successful issue she would be recompensed OUT OF THE PROCEEDS. The lady accepted the proffered task and the fair Was begun, goods for which were ordered by ber from various stores, where she had been previously herself acustomer, amounting to the sum for which the suit has been brought. Just as the fair was about to oper news reached here of PRESIDENT LINCOLN’S DEATH. The sad intelligence completely paralyzed the project, and, it was supposed, all the more so be- cause the then rector of St. Alban's was réputed to entertain opinions utterly foreign to the feelings of most Americans. As a result the fair was tempo- rarily suspended. At Its subsequent carrying on, in- stead of realizing some $20,000 or $25,000, there were but $8,000 received by the management. At this second fair, mstead of having fuil management of it, as originally designed, Mrs, Constant found that the vestrymen had appointed Mrs, Albartis, which action of course put the contro! of the funds in the fatter lady’s hands. These funds were passed into the hands of Alburtus & Constant, bankers, cor- ner of Fulton and Water streets. Bills for the goods procured by Mrs. Constant were sent to her unmediately after the c of the fair and payment of them demanded. e sent them, alter examming them and finding them correct, on to Alburds & Constant, the treasurers of the ‘lair funds, her own Mrs, Constant, it appears, kept PRIVATE BANKING ACCOUNT mie fru, aud it Would seein that the bills rp ed by Mrs, Constant were paid out e) YR account instead of from the funds of the The knowledge of this only became known to . Consiaut some Ume after, Abont to leave for a trip to Europe, she called on the bankers for an ar- raugement of her account, Finding how her money had been misappropriated she protested and ap- pealed to the wardens of the church to refund her the money. They, she says, taformed her somewhat coolly that they had gratelully accepted the $3,400 drawn irom the bunk as her contribuuon to the tair, Mrs. Constant states that not only did she strenu- ously exert herself to promote the opject of the fair, but that sne mduced very many of her Jady friends to do likewise, aud at the close of their exeruous she gave them AN ENTERTAINMENT AT DELMONICO'S, at the cost to her of $800. This she paid herself, and as she had rurntshed a large number of small articles for the fair ste thougit her contribution ‘was, on the whole, considerable, The testimony was chiefly ocenpled in investl- gating the reai amount of the bills for goods fur- nished to the fair by te parties from whow Mrs, Constant nad ordered. Defendants, through their counsel, contended that though Mrs. Constant might nave had an unde standing such as she stated with soine of the vestry Toembers, yet that 1t Was not of such a character or feta & Shape or formas the law required to make It binding. The court room during the bye yesterday Was crowded, and a great deai of interest mani- fested. The further nearing of te case will be re- sumed this morning. CREIES AND CASUALTIES BROOKLYN.

The latest tnstance of the effectiveness of the club was given in tne case of officer Melis, of the Tenth precinct, who cnarged three Johus—Sarr, Finegan and Donerty—with having assaulted him on Saturday morning. ‘The poltceman’s story was that he saw a man lying on the sidewalk, He asked him to get ap and move on, The recumbent figure answered with a grumble and did not stir. A friend of the sleeper who was standing near took nmbrag® at the request of the official, and, picking up. a piece of stick that happendd to ve lying near, attacked the oificer with It. The man on the sidewalk at this moment returned to consciousness and set to work to assist his iriend in the meritorions industry of belaboring a “cop.”” Melis shouted for help, and a fireman (one John Doherty) came over to him; but usted of rendering him any ald he WENT OVER ON THE OTMER SIDE. Another policeman then arrived upon the spot and arrested Doherty, who broke away from him. Another and another came and performed the same oftlce for Doherty, bat with the same result, until a Hercules came up and collared the victorious fire- man. The reinforcements then made eary work of the other two, and all of them brought up at the station house. With the exception of a limping leg, Melis showed no other wounds recetved in the fight. Doierty, however, and the other two men were very much injured, The fireman was pet upon the stand and told an entirely different tale. He said he was cailed by the oiticer to help him.

Beecherites at Iona Island. The Plymouth people are such jolly people, as everybody Knows, that they find it dificult to be solemn even tn church, The pastor’s mirth overflows into his sermons; the good nature of ‘he pews responds to the geniality of the pulpit, and the. moral pills that it is supposed everybody needs, are so sugared with kindness and spiced with wit that they are taken without ever & wry face. If sermons and hymns and prayers (usu- ally submitted to for the sake of avoiding a worse evil), can be made attractive, what must be a Plym- outh picnic? What must people be in the woods who can LAUGH IN CHURCH? A reporter's pencil, although well sharpened, fails to do the subject Justice, and leaves it to the tmagi- nation of the indulgent reader.

The Kekiongas Beaten By the Eckfords— A Fine Contest—Score, 6 to 1. Greatly to the surprise of almost every one the | game yesterday afternoon between the Eckfords and Kekiongas resulted in an overwhelming defeat of the latter, the score at the close of the contest standing—Eckford, 6; Kekionga, 1. To be sure the Fort Wayne boys played without | the assistance of their efficient catcher, Lennon; but | it 1s doubtful if they would have done better had ne participated in the game, as his place was most ad- mirably filled by Wilhams. The betting, before the game commenced, was two to one on the Keklongas, with any number of takers. That the Eckfords won is due wholly to the superior pitching by Martin and the superb fielding of their whole nine; for not ® run was earned on either side. From first to Jast they played like veteraus, never once “ietung up’? on the steady, deliberate manner with which they first started off. From the very moment when “play”? was called they each and every one showed @ firm determination to win. Every point which could in any way beneft them was taken advantage of and at once turned to their account, and had the Matuals evinced haif as much spirit in their game the day before they need not nave lost 1t, ftven mint.tes past three o’clock the game commenced, with the Kekiongas at the bat, and Mr. C.

Through an error by Martin, who dropped an easy fly which Mathews sent him, the visitors succeeded in getting the run which adorns their score. After this, althongh they struggied manfally, they could not ‘‘work @ man around” the bases to the home plate. Martin's pitching was, b: ali odds, too much for them. in vain did they wali up and try to bat the ball in the most vicious man- ner imaginable. if they chanced to hit the ball it | wos almost certain to result in a foul, which efther Hicks, behind the bat, or Nelson, at third base, was sure to take, [The coiumn headed “R" indicates the number of runs ” es on good hita; “T," total bases on <P,” put out by the player opposite whose name “A,” aasisted to put out, and “,” errors made.} KEKIONGA. 1B.T.

It was a neat job neatly done, At olice every means was set on foot to get on the TRACK OF THE ROBBERS, Detective skill was employed, including Eider and!
