He ts charged ‘with having, in the early part of September last, opened two letvers that had been deposited ia the Post Ofice, one ef them being a money letter, con- taining a Post Ofice order for $2, addressed to Taylor & Co., of the Havana Lottery, Wall street. As this case presents some features of interest we ebail refer to them in brief detail, Ii appears Svat some time before the charge in question was made a clerk in the department named Zolnson had informed Mr. Gayler, special agent of ‘the Post Ofice, that he had seen Mr. Moon on seve- Fai occasions open lettera. The clerk was ordered by Mr. Gayler to watch Mr. Moon and seize bim the mex time he saw him opening a letter. This put Johnson on the qui vive, and, according to bis testi- anony, le saw Mr. Moon open a letter and soon after that anotuer letter, which contained the Post Ofice order referred to, At the time of this transaction Jounson states that tf be had been attending to his duty ms back would have been to Mr. Moon, but ‘hat his back was not turned to him; he was stand- ang about eigut feet from where Moon was, aud when the latter took the letter out of the envelope and opened it he (Johnson) could see that it contained a Post Office order, Moon, according to the evidence, then tore the envelope in 3wo, aud, putting the pieces together, was about to tear them agai, when he was rushed upon by Johnson and another clerk, named Stone, ‘Who (ook the jeter and the fragments of the letter from him, The testimony of Stone elicited the fact that he had on some occasions, at the request of Mr. Moon, addressed letters iu new enveio, the old ones having become very inucb torn or almost de- stroyed in their e through the Post Oftice, and be couid not say whether or not ue cavelope ol the letter m question had been torn before Mr, Moon removed the letter from it, Counsel for the agience cross-examined the witnesses very closely and With great particularity, aud put questions to 2 with a view of suowing that an inierence drawn that he was an interested witness, tuasmeeh as the questions implied that Mr, Moon ba’ refused torecommend him for promotion; but johuson’s replies negatived this. After the letter jad been seized in the possession of Mr. Moon, he ‘went luio the office of Mr. Gayler, admitted that he had done wrong, and wished to send tn his resigna- won. ‘The case bas excited a good deal of interest among the clerks in the Post Office.

A Professional Rargiar Sent to ° Sing—Auother Emigrant Swindling Ca The Jury Locked Up for the Night. | Before Recorder Hackett, | ‘The first prisoner callea up to the bar yesterday | by District Attorney Sullivan was James Suapson, | who pleaded guilty to burglary, On the Sth of August the premises of Karl Klein, 167 Kast Sixtieth street, were entered and $70) worth of jewelry | stolen. In view bf the pnsoner giving important | information to the District Attorney, which led to the recovery of a large amount of property, Mr. Sullivan suggesied the propricty of mitigating the punisnment, | The Kecorder, in passing sentence, said that Simpson was indicted on three distinct charges of burglary, and that during the summer he entered twenty-five houses through scnttles, pretending to be a painter. Hut asa iarge amount of property, through the exertions of the prisoner, had been re- covered, he modified the sentence to two years and 1X Months in the State Prison. The remauder of the aay was occupied in the trial of Henry McDermott, jomtly indicted with ‘Wiliam Berry for swindung Aaron Johuson, on the 2ith of July, out of the sum of $391. 1t appeared from the statement of the complainant that while he was on a Jersey City ferry boat an unknown man—whose name was afterwards discovered to be William berry—askea him if he was going to Eu- rope, and, upon Johnson answering tn the afirma- tive, he said he was going too, and offered to take him to an office at 505 Canal street. When they ar- rived there the agent (McVerimott) said that the best thing he Johnson) could do was to change hia greenbacks into coin, Whereupon he gave him $560 currency aud received a check for it. Berry and Johusou went to a hotel, and upon the following e day (Friday) he took Johnson to th Central Park and other ‘nice’ places; they returned to the office on Saturdi morning, having purohased a ticket for $38 to sail upon the steamer that day, and McDermott pat the gold on the counter, counted it, Di: it in @ belt, and requested John- son to come round the desk in order that he might adjust it upon his person. He put the leather belt around the waist of the iano. cent Jonnson, who proceeded to tne steamer and embarked, his friend Berry making a convenient exctse about his baggage being misiuid at the depot. When out on the ocean three or four days Johnson began to have misgivings about his money, and upon examiming his belt discovered that it only contained twenty-seven $5 gold pieces and a 2 bill. As soon as he arrived in Glasgow in the gieamer India Johnson returned at once to New York, and upon the description which he gave of {he prisoners they were a . Berry was de- tamed in Jersey City, bat he was cunning enough, while the vilicer was in New York, to escape, an has not since been caught, He mautpulated Jonn- a oy @ very ingenious way so as to secure bis con- ence, Onicer Freeman, detatied to look after bogus ticket offices and emigrant “runuers,” testtiled that on tae 26th or 28th of August Johnson made known his loss and pointed out the ofice 508 Canal street as the place where he was ilecced, and on the 7th of Sep- tember McDermott aud Berry were arrested in Jer- sey City. Johnson was sent to Ward’s Island, and when McDermott was taken to the police precinct, in the City Hall, @ number of citizens was put in the same room with him, and yet the moment Jonn- son Was ushered into the room he promptly ident- fled McDermott as the man who swindled him out of his pile of greenoacks before he started for Sweden. The officer stated that McDermott was a partner in this ticket office, and remembers seeing im around West and Canal streets during the month of July, but could not positively swear that he saw him in New York the last week of July, The erence made by the accused was Mr. Weller’s famous one—“a halini.” Mr. Sullivan requested u the men who were 1a Court lo swear for the prisoner might be :emoved from ihe room and each ed and examined in the absence of the other. Corneiius Mahoney, Thomas Ford and Wiham Huat swore that they accompanied Mebermoit fishing excursion down the bay. ‘hey stax the J00t of Desbroxses strect on th vw | catch blue fish, and were kul | Mme ist of August, and that McDermott was with them all the time, salllug beiween Sandy Hook and Rockuway. It was amusibg 10 listea to the conira- | ; dictions im ther testimony during the searching | crose-eXamination of Sr, Sullivan. ‘The Recorder reviewed the tesiimons in his usual | Impartial aueer, but while calling the attention of the jury to the defence reminded thes of what he | considered to be & very unportant plece of teat- { mony given by the olicer, Who swore that when | McDermott and Johnson were in the station Reuse | McDermott asked Johuson if he dia not see him sit- | ung in tie office wilh red siippers on. Johnson re- | plied, “You were behind the counter.” Johnson | Turtner said, “You did not expect me to come | back? whereupon the prisoner said, ‘i dia.”? The case was given to the jury ata late hour m the evening, and, failing to agiece, the Recorder | locked them up for the nigat. it was rumored among the knowing ones around | the courtroom that a certain juror had been “seen.” | ANOTHER ALLEGED EMIGRANT SWINDL NG CASE. 1 Charles Moore, another alleged notorious emigrant | ticket swindler, Was on the calendar for tiiai, but when he was called neither he nor his bonasman | answered, nor did the prosecutiug witness, ‘he Recorder ten ted ordered the bali to be iorfeited, sna issued bench warrants for the arrest of Moore and of the Witness agaist him. ‘hus 1 will be seen bat the presiaing judges of this court are doing all | iu tuear power to break up the gigantic sysiem of | swindling poor emigrants that is a ioul biet apoa | our cily.

According to a statement made by Joun Palmer, an employe of that establishment, be- fore Judge Hogan yesterday, the two women com- Meneed by examining every article in the lower part of the store, but, nding there were so many eyes upon them, gradually ascended higher, with | the hope of meeting with better success, Arriving at the ribbon department they examined a quantity green tarlatan, whten was secreted about the per- son of Lanigan, Having made this seizure they were descending again, when Thompson saw ao splendidly worked worsted cap, made up for an in- fant, which was carried away by lier, tm addition to @ quantity of pointed black lace of an expensive quality.

According to previous ansouacement Dave Kent- | ley, alias James Wilson, the condemued murderer of Warden Willard, was to-day removed irom the State Prison to the jail, where he will remain until his exccution on Friday hext at noon, Tt wil be remem- bered that the Court in passing septence on Wilson reraanded him to the State Prison mstead of to the jav, a8 Was usual. This was because Wilson was under sentence for tree burglaries. Since he has been in prison he bas spent his Ume in studying the | Jaw, and has tried in every way to have @ new trial or in some other manner to avoid the execution of | the Senience of the jaw. He still beieves that he | may be abie to avoid the scafiold, at east for the | present. He has strenuously refused to name any spiritual adviser, But it is probable that he will repent this Week, set his worldly aifaus ia order aud prepare | for the life to come. ‘The announcement in the Tinws on Faturday that he Was to rile through the city 1n the opea carriage of Jailer Fenn, from the State Prison to the jail this Morving, caused an unusual excitement.
