He did not consider the language of the address too strong when it said that there was reason to hope that the Treaty of Washington will form an era ty the history of civilization and of the Bugs nation. “He said that he did not gu as the advocate of British or as the opponent of American claims. “We are to consider,” sald he, ‘every rt that is brought before us, without considering for a single moment by whom that claim is pre- ferred or oy whom itis opposed, and in so doing 1 believe I shall bé best consulttog the in- tereste of both countries. It is a matter of very email importance to a counwy like Great Britain or the United States whether ® smaller or larger sum of money be paid or received by one country or the other; but what 1s important to both of them is that the people of both countries should believe that the questions that Dave arisen between thew have been fairly and justly de- cided.

The hands ot | the corpse were crossed upon the breast, and as the feet was piaced a eross andanchor, composed of camelias and tuberoses. A long line of sympathizing friend: passed in single file through the parlors and turned around the cozin to take a last look at the dead friend and associate. Among the visitors present were District attorney Garvin, Judges Bedford, Larremore, Jones, Curtis, Cardozo and Dowling; James Hayes, Michael Tuomey, Thomas Whalen, Henry Hill and several prominent lawyers, ‘The Kev.

Judge Stuart was born at Branchville, Sussex county, N. J., at that time a hamlet lying at the toot of the Blue Mountains, and tweive miles, or there- abouts, this side of the Delaware River. He received @ common school education at his native place, unuer the instruction of one Simeon Bishop, @ man of superior education and abilities to those usually found in those days iollowing tie avocation of ‘couniry schoolmaster.” When young Stuart lext school he learned the trade of sadder and har- ness maker, Which, as apprentice and journeyman, he foliowed until about 1832 or i833, When he crme to New York aud for several years thereafter was salesman in an aaction store on Pearl street. So Jar from his being unable to read or write at the time of his coming to New York he was, during the first year, the author oi a piay, which was, I think, produced at some one of the minor tehatres. His subsequent career is well kaown, and 1s as stated in your ovltuary notice, R.A. H, MRS J. J, CONNOLLY. She ie a Raviog Maniac and Removed to an Asyinm. Mrs. J. J. Connosy, wife of the late Dr. Connolly, who a short time since destroyed two of his ciil- dren and subsequently committed suicide, was yes- terday afternoon declared by Dr. Willard Parker to be a raving maniac, and an order was demanded from Judge Dowling to have her forwarded to Bloomingdale Lunatic Asylum. It will be remem- bered that about @ fortnight since Mrs. Connolly Was in the French cathedrai at Montreal, and while the service was being performed she was seized with a sudden aberration, and bas since lost all control of her mental powers. She returned to New York a few days ago, and put up at the Metropolitan Hotel; Dut she has gradually become worse, until her friends apphed for an opinion from Dr. Parker as to her case. The Judge Was desired to call at the hotel jast night, when an order was signed for her removal (o the asylum. The Doctor stated that hers was an almost hopeless case, and in his mind grave doubts arose whether she could ever recover. THE VAN BUSKIRK CASE. Madam Van Buskirk and “Doctor” Renjamin Perry, o1 New York, Who were mdicted on the charge of having caused the death of Misa Emily A. Post, of Somervitle, N. J., were arraigned in the Brooklyn City Court, before Judge McCue, yesierday morning. Mr. Cooney, for tne de- fence, asked for postponement. in consequence of the recent deain of e: Stuart, the sentor counsel tn the case, ne Oooane said that he was unprepared to go on with the trial oi the case by himsels, and, therefore, he wanted a delay of a few days before entering pleas for the Mie as nd District Attorney Morris, tor the eople, aid he would be ready to proceed to-day (Wednes- day), but Would consent to @ delay until Thursday, Mr, Cooney asked tor @ postponement until Monday, but the Court relused to grant it, and the trial was finally set down for Friday. HUNTING HOBOKEN HOGS, At the Common Council meetung in Hoboken, last evening, @ resolution was introduced recommend- ing the Immediate prosecution of several citizens residing on the meadows for harboring hogs within the.r doors, A crowd of hog owners was in attena- ance, and evidently made an impression on tne Alaerm as the jatier postponed action on the resolutio!

I Know periectly well, from informa- tion that has already reached me, that the causes which will be brought hefore us are numerous; some, no doubt, will be of a complicated nature; some Will involve difficult questions of maritime and international law; but I have very great fatth in our honest evdeavors to do right.

COURT OF SPECIAL SESSIONS. Humanity Versus Horsofiesh—A Warning to the Strect Railroad Officials—Bergh Will Defend Travellers Against Suffocation. Before Judge Dowling. The question of overcrowding the street railroad cars has frequently been discussed, but no practical results have ever been arrived at to prevent the city railroad corporations from carrying more than three times the legitimate number of passengers in their cars—much to their own profit, but greatly to the Gisgust of the general public. About two weeks ago the indomitable Bergh, Chief of the society for the Prevention of Crueicy to Animals, saw @ car be- longing to the Forty-second street and Crosstown ine loaded almost to suffocation, and, in addition to the load, he saw that the horses were lame. The Jatter fact at once called for his services as an oM- cer of the society, and he had the car stopped for the purpose of releasing ihe animals. The crowd stepped of the car and Mr, Bergh counted the passengers, ascertaining thelr num- ber to be seventy-five, ‘his struck the humane Bergh as being monstrous, not so much against the horseflesh as agaiust humanity, and he immediately arrested the conductor and driver— Thomas Boyle and Peter McLaughlin. Generally Mr. Bergh’s arrests aré of minor im- Portance, anu the proceedings in the courts unwor- thy of much public comment; but in this case he maintained that tt involved a princ.ple as to whether human beings should be subjected to treat- ment such as men would scarcely inflict on horses, withont the offence being visited with condign pun- ishment, He maintained that to pack SEVENTY-FIVE PERSONS ON A CAR made to carry about thirty at the outside was a gross violation of every social and humane la‘y. ‘The two prisoaers were taken before the Court of Special Sessions last week, but as the Court wished to ascertain exactly the bearing of the Jaw upon the case they were remanded until yesterday, so that a proper investigation might be instituted and a judg- Went rendered according to the statute, The Court of Special Sessions was closely crowded before the proceediags commenced by conductors and otner railroad officials, who evinced a lively in- terest iu the cage, When the case was called Boyle only answered, the other defendant being sick—at ieast according tocounsel engaged to defend him—and on this a mowoa to adjourn the case was made and promptly jenied. Judge DowLina—It would be useless to prolong a case Oi this sort, involving, as 1t does, 80 much that 1s of general interes! to the traveiling public, and I therefore procced to state my decision in the mat- ter:— JUDGE DOWLING’S JUDGMENT, The defendants have been convicted for viola\ing & most humane law. . it is true, as has been urged m their behalf, that the law does not restrict them as to the numyer of passengers to be conveyed ina single car, and, as lar as the Court 1s informed, the conductors and drivers have no orders to that elect trom the superintendents or others having the man- agement and control of the city ratiroads. But this cannot shield them from the consequences of a vio- lation of law. ‘Their own sense of what was jus aud proper and the common feelings of humanity most assuredly would have taught them that com- pelling @ pair of horses to draw a car containing over seventy passengers was A MOST UNNECESSARY ACT OF CRUELTY. Of all animals the horse is most usefal to man, and when men so far forget themselves as to abuse or ll-treat tiem they deserve and should be severely punished, It would be well, if possibie, if those having the management of the city railroads could regulate the number of passengers to be carried in each car, 80 that the conductors and drivers might act understandingly, and if orders were then dis- obeyed they would have no excuse. » The quesiion of punishment in these cases is one surrounded with embarrassment to the Court. The couductors and drivers are usually poor men, almost entirely dependent on their situations fot the support of their families, and in nowise inter- esied in the amount returned to their employers as the reguit of each trip. To inflict @ punishment or penaity upon them would, it seems to me, be great injusuce and bardship. But if, in any case, it can de shown to the Court that these acts of the conductors and drivers are SANCTIONED OR AUTHORIZED BY THE OFFICERS of the railroad companies, or if any of these officers are shown to be upon the cars, countenancing a violation of the law, the Court will visit upon them the severest penalty prescribed for such offence. Under the circumstances of this case, belleving that the defendants did not act wilfully and maliciously, but heedlessly and without due thought or consid- eration, I have concluded not to punish them at this time, but to discharge them with the cautiou that if again brought for a hke offence they must expect no mercy.

COURTS. The Pet Halsted Murder and O:ber Notorious Newark Crim‘anlities. The September term of the Essex County Courts Opened yesterday at the Court House in Newark, Mr. O’Fake, a colored man, was among the Grand Jurors, Juagé Depue delivered his charge, a lengthy document, the most important parts of | which are those bearing on THE “PET” HALSTED MURDER by George Botts, and on the frightful slaughter on the Newark and New York Ratiroad. The inquisition taken first in order was upon the body of Oliver 8. Halstead, Jr., a known citizen of this city. The charge in the inquisition is that the said George Botis Is guilty of murder. It is suMcient on this occasion to say that if the same testimony shall be produced before you in an indictment for the grave offence indicated py the Coroner's jury tt = be found that the accused may be put apon wi TUB BRILLS SWITCHES SLAUGHTER. The second of these inquisitions was taken upon the bodies of five persons who came to their death uvon the Newark aud New York Railroad on the 9th day of July last, in a collision between two trains on that road, caused by a misplacementof & switch, which was then in charge of one William Thompson. The Coroner's jury find that the acct- dent resulted from the carelessness of the switch tender. Tne law on this subject has recently Tecetved consideration vy the Supreme Court and is ‘Well settled, If the omission to perform a duty such as devolves upon person having charge of a switch apon a railroad 1s wilful and death results therefrom, the crime is murder. If the defautt is | the regult of negligence the offence is manslaugiter. THE TRIAL OF BoTTs .

The Committee from the Board of Aldermen ot Brooklyn Confers With the Kiepresenta- tives of the Union Ferry Company. At noon yesterday Messrs, Morse and Smith, Preal- dent and Superintendent of the Union Ferry Coin- pany, met the committee from the Board of Alder men of Brooklyn to confer with them in regard to the’ question of encroachment of the new ferry house at the foot of Fulton street on clty property. Measrs. Smith and Morse were seconded by the counsel for the ferry company, Mr. Benjamin D. Silliman, That gentle- man opened the proceedings with a lengthy argu- ment in support of the ferry company. He de- clared that the company had no selfish or mercenary motives in the construction of the ferry building to its present line, and that It was the desire of the { company to harmonize with the city government | and to respect the city officials, ‘the substance of Mr. Silliman’s argument bore upon the acceptance by the committee of a proposition from the ferry company to pay to the city the nominal sum of $1 for the privilege of using the ground en- croached upon by the ferry buliding. The structure, he’said, had cost the company $100,010, and the company would not rec:lve an adaitiénal cent more fare by its construction. The city ought to be satisfied to yield the strip of land encroached upon for the public interest and for the nominal sum of $1. The counsel assured the committee in a posi- tive manner that the ferry company was not organ- ized or operated for the purpose of money making. That with its capital of $1,000,000 the directors of the agg 4 hold less than $28,000 worth of the stock, Their interests were in Brooklyn and they felt a pride in the growth and prosperity of the city, Of the 10,000 shares but 2,000 are held in New York and Brooklyn; the larger portion of them are held in Queens and Suffolk counties and other localities. Coporation Counsel De Wirr replied to the argu- Ment of Mr. Silliman, and considered it a ‘‘vemark- able address,” but he supposed that an examina. uon was to be held between the ferry company and the city. Tue company, he remarked, had re mained in the Same position with their old building for twenty-five years, and when the officials of the Brooklyn departments were absent from the city 1n the summer the ferry company deliberately en- croached upon the street and claimed ownership. He did not appreciate their interest as Brooklyn men nor the nominal sum proposeu by the company. The company ought to pay rent for the ground en- croached upon in accordance with its worth. New York, in yielding up ber claim for @ nominal sum, obtained one cent ferriage for a portion of the day, and he would suggest that the one cent ferrlage be _ continued through the day. Mr. SILLIMAN sald the ferry could not be run for one cent fare, and that of the five ferries of the com- Pany the Faiton ferry alone pays expenses, The committee adjourned ana will report the re- sult of their conference at the next mecting of the Board of Aldermen, WEDDED WOE. Another Complicated Divorce Case—(ruel Treatment Alleged on One Side, Extrava- gance on the Other—A Thirteen Years’ Mar- ried Lite To Be Dissolved—The Case Re- ferred. The divorce suit in which Maria F. Nooncy ts plaintiff and Robert B. Nooney detendant, came oir yesterday m the Court of Common Picas, betore Judge Cnaries P. Daly, on aMdavits of the parties, The facts as detaiied in the aMdavits present ihis as one of those singular cases which of late years, owing to “the progress of the age,’’ have become so Dumerous as to occupy the attention of courts and urles to a considerable extent, Both the husband and wife, ag appears by the papers, are parties moving in the “first society’ of this city, and lived in @ style of fashion and splendor up to the time of the separation. The plaintiff 1s a ladylike and accomplished looking person, and the motier of thirteen children, four of whom—three boys and a girl—are still living with her. The plaintiff’ now ap- plies to the Court for alimony, on the following statement of facts set forth in her complaint:—On the 21st of August, 1854, the plainuf was married Jo the defendant in this city, and has lived here since with him until he deseried her a year &go this coming Uctober. Almost immediately AFTER THEIR MARRIAGE the defendant commenced a series of cruel and in- human acts towards her and her children, which continued until he abandoned her, using the most ob- scene and shameful language in presence of his children. In January, 1860, the mother of plaintitr being but two weeks dead, and the plainufl having a nursing baby two weeks old at her wreast, her hasband asked her for some papers relating to her mother’s estate, and because she did not forthwith produce them he beat her, DRAGGED HER BY THE HAIR along the floor through the house, nearly killing hert and causing a severe fit of sickness, by which she lost the proper nourishment for her baby, who died soon after. On another occasion he took two of the children out in the street at one o’clock in the mornin g, in thelr night clothes, during @ severe snow storm. In 1862 he dragged his wife down stairs py the hatr, In Sep- tember, 1864, the house in witch they lived took fire, leaving only the ceilar for them to live in, and for three weeks the plaintiff and her children were compelled to live in this cellar by tne defen«- ant, who would not allow them to go to the house of his wite’s relatives, where they could find com- Sortable shelter. The defendant then removed them to the first floor of a house in Twenty-seventh strect, the other floors of which were occupied as a house Ot prostitution, and during the time they lived there he was absent five nights oonsecutiveiy, and on his return home he threw dirty water on the plaintiff. On Christmas Eve, 1864, he stabbed her in the shoulder with @ penknife, hit her in several parts of the faco and tore her clothes. At another time he threw her on her back upon the stairs with such violence as to cause the premature birth of twins. One evening he burned her in the bed with @ lighted cigar. Alter continuing this an OTHER KINDS OF BAD TREATMENT until the 27th of Octover, 1870, he wholly deserted her and her chiidren, leaving them without any means of support, and on the ilth of the same month had @ bouce published in the newspapers forbidding any one to wust heron his account. He has never since madeany provision for her support except toa very small extent. Alter leaving his Wile thus he came to see her on two or three occa- sions, when he renewed his brutal treatment. The laintif threatening legal proceeding, he induced her to enter into @ written ment with bim on the 28th of last March by which she agreed that they should live separately, she to have the custody of the four children, and that the defendant should allow her ONE-THIRD OF HIS INCOME to live upon. ‘Tne plamtir says she has fulfilled her part of this agreement, but tiat the defendant has ———— THE NATIONAL GAME.

The mam ager of the troupe, whose name, I think, is Whitta- ker, sald to the son of the landlord that the boy had been ailing for some time. During the day, how- ever, the suspicious circumstances which have been related in the HERALD occurred. Toward evening J went down stairs trom my room and nappened to meet one of the showmen, In conversation with him 1 spoke of the sick boy, and he said;— “Dve just been up to see him,” ‘How ts he?”? ‘The man shook his head and said, cue 1s very cold and is about dyiag.
