General Gordon leaves to-night for Washington to appear vefore tae Ku Klux Comaiitice, CAMDEN AND AHBOY The Railroad Lense in the Court et Chancery— Sharp Legal Vencine—To Be or Not Te Be, The scene in the New Jersey Court of Cnancery at Trenton yesterday recalied the good old ume when many of Jerseys emtnent sons achieved forensic triumphs of which the little State feels justly proud, For many mm the Court there was more of curl- osity than of deep interest, but for many more the thundering deciamation of the legal orators sounded like funeral orations over old Ca:nden and Amboy. To more than one in that court the scene suggested a comparison with the lst session of the Irish Parltament, when Grattan electrified his hearers by the announcement that he was LOOKING INTO HIS COUNTRY’S GRAVE. Pennsylvania has 1ts Tom Scott, or, a3 one of the orators expressea it, its Wiliiam Pitt, and Pitt, having set a covetous eye upon Camden and Amboy, has Castlereagh, who will accomplish the work. Aguiust these agents, inciuding John ?, Stockton, United States Senator; Cortland Parker, ex-Chan- cetlor Wiliemson, Scudder, Vanatta and Green, there stood ex-Attorney General Browning, with his old plack cravat, older than THE DAYS OF CLAY AND WEBSTER, his massive watch chain and heavy set of seals sug- gesting the inevitable ‘‘turmip’’ timepiece, and his toul ensembie, save the knee breeches, the VERITABLE TYPE OF OLD JEKSEY, the fitting mou’ hplece of the generation that nursed and reared Camden and Amboy, ad who still stood by it even in its last hours, Browning looked @ veritable chip of the old block, one of the last links of the Past. No man could be more appropriately selected to give expression to the feelings of the ola stockholders and to pronounce the panegyric of tie Canden and Amboy monopoly, All bis arguments and his declamation seemed noth ing more than a PROTEST AGAINST THE “UNION,” destruction of the autonomy of Amboy, the adsorption of the the ‘stroager—arguments of right against might, With hin were associated Juuge Black and Messrs, wradiord nnn, Attorney General Gilchrist appeared in support of the separate auswer of George Kichards, a director of the Curnden and Amboy. After some debatiug between counsel as to tne order im which the complaints and answers snould groceed, the Chanceilor announced that he was pre- pared to hear arguments on the motion for an wjuncy tion to restrain the delendaats from executing the lease. Mr. Scudder then proceedel to read the answer, tue read ng of the built of complaint having been dispensed with, aud occupied the attention of the court for an hour and twenty nies. He urged upon the serious consideration of the Coury that great cutlays were necessary for wharves, docks and bulidinas, end the defendants were sub- jected to such merce competition with exisung roads, that utless they were permitted to tease the road they could not louger carry on their business to advantage and with profit to the stock- holders. (The business would go to other roads, and to prevenc this they proposed @ permanent lessee, ‘he answer denied the allegations that they were attempting to traMe in the stock, aud subiuitved that 1¢ Was bot might to obstruct the making of the Jease, and that ater the lease snould be made they (the direciors) would be better able to per.orm tavir duties to the stocknoli- ers. The answer denied that the vennssivania Central Ratiroad was & corporation cou- flued to Pennsylvania, and aliewed that tne time had come when there should be one great system of communication from the Atlan- tic to the Pacific. The works ot the anited com- panies were united, and though the river Delaware separated the States, yet that did not destroy the identity, taere Was a connection which marie the communication complete, The power to constract bridge over the Delaware was by consent of hoth States, and this forwed the connection between the companies. The united companies and j@ rat.road companics were owners of neariy ail the stock of the Delaware Bridge Com- pany. Tue connection set forth was passed by a coutinuous tun of road from Jersey City to Pitts- it was true different locomotives were used, same cars went over the whole distance, The estabiisned and continu. ous traMc subject to ove control was ue- manded by the ciues aud villages on the route, and the traffic over the Velaware to the Walnut street Wuarl was but a connection between t ¢ two roatis, while even the Delaware aod Raritan Canal Company were connected with the Philadephia Toad, The lease question had occupied the atten- tion of the directors of the united com- panies, who couciuded that they had the right, with the consent of two-thirds ot the stuckholders, to make tue lease, and that the Penn- syivauia Central Ratiroad hee cage had the right to accepc the lease, and the answer dented that there Was a combination co altect the lease. The answer further set forth that outof 7,000 shares all but 25 ov0 were Owned Out Of the State. These were tie potent and cogent reasons advanced, outside the re- view of the lezisiution, which, it was alleged, did n. Uprevent the lease, Atiorney General Gilchrist then read a separate answer on behalf of George Richards. He submitted tuthe Court whether the jease could ve effected without (he consent of all parties concerned. He also submitted Whether any State law authorizing the taking of such lease without the consent of ail interested 18 a iaW Mnpalring the obligations of ang Cuntract between te stockholders themse.ves or ve- tween the lessor and tue lessee, in Violation of the constitutions Of this Stace, of Pennsylvania and of the Untied States, Also, 1! the lessee had # right to take the lease, had he @ rigit to take against the will of the owner thereof the stuck of its non- assenting stockholders and the inierest of ite said partuers (Lf any), 8o a8 Ww prevent all dissent as to the taking of such lease’ Also whether, until such law!ul taking of such stock or faterest, said lease can be taken bY suct lessee Without the Consent of all its stockboiders. ‘Ihe rights and powers of the legsee sould be Tully ascertained, Whe Chancellor asked if any other defendant wished to be heard, ut received no repiy.

Cheating Between Lobbyists---The Penn- sylvania State Agency Scandal. Tnereased Duty on Petroleum in Italy. Favorable Condition of the Sugar and Tobaceo Crops. Ku-Kluxing a Congressional Committee in South Carolina, WASHINGTON, July 25, 1871, A Silppery Customer—Lobbyists Cheating Each Other—Penvsylyania War Claim, A short time since one of the Presidential ap- pointees, who occupies a position on the Board of Public Works of the District, called upon the Secre- tary of the Treasury, requesting that a war claim, amounting to nearly three nundred thousand dol- lary, due the State of Pennsylvania for arming and equipping troops durng the retvellion, should not be paid to the State agent, for the reason that he had not acted fairly with him and his Triend who had secured him the appointment. It Was alleged by the official that the appointment of the agent was mainly through the influence of a for- mer editor of one of the Wastington journals, who now occupies a nigh government position in the cy of Brotherly Love; that the agent was to receive five per cent as his commis- sion for collecting the war claim of the S.ate, one-half of whch was to be divided between the Panadelphia oficial and himself; that the agent had fulfivled his contract only in part, and having reasonable grounds for believing that he would not act fatrly on che receipt of the amount to be paid they thougiit it the better plan not to give him the opportunity of haudling any more of the State funds. The Secretary declined to toterfere tn the matter, Just as the second and First Comptrol- lers had before this recusal. About the same time the »tate Auditor of Pennsylvania filed a protest against the payment of any more money to the agents, on the ground that imstaiments already paid to him bad never been deposited at Harrisburg, while there was reasouable suspicion for stating that the funds had deen dep sited in Jay Cooke's bank, in Phiiadeiphia, and were being used tor pri- vate speculation. The request of the Auditor Was com- phed with, a drait for $.9°,00 being sent direct to him, But it appears that the State agent not only Weat back on bis Piuladelpata and Washington friends, but that an ex-clerk in the Third Auditor's ofice, who had given him valuable information con- cerning his particular cases, has also been swindled out of his share of the spous.

There was no violation of tne law except in one case. A number of negroes threatened to punish another negro for voting the democratic ticket, but the row was suppressed. A Bothersome Congressional Glunder, One of the suolime works of Senator Chandler during the session of Congress in 1870 was the framing of a bill that has been, since its passage, a greater torment to Collectors of Ports on the Lake frontiers than could be all the Chinese puzzles west of tne Rocky Mountains. One of its features was that any vessel touching at an intermediate port between the ports of clearance and destination should not be required to report at the custom house, and if the vessel stopped at any port not an intermediate port, without reporting to the custom house, the masier should be flned $22. A Case 1s now pending where a vessel cleariug at Racine for Buifalo, stopped at Chicago without reporting to the Collec- tor, and he subsequently exacted flaes, amounting to $12), for this derelicuon of duty. An appeal was made to the Secretary of the Treasury for refund, and the Collector was to-day ordered to return the money, 28 Chicago was certainly an intermediate port.
