A GENERAL REVIEW OF THE FIELD PENNSYLVANIA. eecceseens The Quaker City Preparing for the Re- ception of Delegates to the Republican National Convention, PHILADELPHIA, May 9, 18 Letters and telegrams fromall parts of the dd asking for accommodations at the different hotels denote the eve of preparation for the Republican Convention, The first meeting of one of the city executive committees has been held, and means \adopted to insure, as far as possible, the comforta- Mle accommodations of delegates from different ‘parts of the country. Philadelphia has but six really good hotels. Not more than three of these would be designated good by a New Yorker; but Buch as they are they are entitled to the credit of purveying to the satisfaction of their guests, The Continental stands first; then the Colonnade, at Fifteenth and Chestnut; then the Lapierre, on Broad street, near the Academy of Music; the St. Cloud, the Girard, opposite the Continental, and the St. Lawrence. Even now nearly all the accommodations at these houses are secured for tho use of delegates and lobbyists; for there will be lobbyists in number nearly equal to the delegates, in influence possibly overriding them, WHAT THE PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION PROMISES. Pennsylvania promises to send to this Convention delegates quite as “protective” in their feelings as she aid to Cincinnati, and they will differ from their Uberal brethren on one point only—viz., they think that Grant has earned the right to another term in office by his reduction of his public debt, and the marked tendency he has manifested in be- half of a protective tariff, and, knowing this, they ask, ‘“‘What better can Mr. Greeley give us, or the democratic nominee, whoever he may chance to be? All is peace at home and abroad, the manufactures of the country are in a flourishing condition, and manufacturers are making more money now than they ever did before.” And that 4s just where to put the question. Ask @ man how much money he is making, and if he is flourishing better now than he ever did before. He will not change these practical benefits for a promise of bet- ter; and tnis is the reason Pennsylvania is for Grant, and this is the reason the East and West and North will unite on him. While he has promised nothing, his administration has protected the in- terests of the manufacturers, OBSTACLES TO GRANT IN THE STATE. But there isone serious obstacle in the way of Grant’s carrying Pennsylvania. I refer to the nominations for State oMicers. Unless Hartranft can be carried through in October Grant's chances are decidedly slim. John W. Forney regards the nomination of Hartranft as a very unwise pro- ceeding at this critical juncture, for the reason that Hartranft is not a popular man with the people. He is a man of somewhat undecided political standing, and there are many people as yet unsatisfied of the purity of his course in the vans affair, is not claimed that he failed to “come out all right,’ but it is evident that he had a sub rosa connection with Evans, and told what he knew of others to save himself. Otherwise Mr. Hartranft’s record is all right. He was a brave officer in the war, and commanded his men on more than one prea ie hotly contested fleld. But there is dissatisfaction in the ranks of the faithful, and the liberals are doing allin their power to fan the ame. McClare is the leading liberal here, and if! were to attempt to sum his qualifications as a politician I should say he is the best disorganizer in the State. His principal occupation at the present time is dis- organizing the party that failed to appreciate his talents, and, if present indications are trustworthy, he will make the job a success. THE DEMOCRATIC STATE NOMINATIONS. The democrats will nominate State officers at a Convention to be held at Reading some time this month, It is believed that Senator Buckalew will be the nominee for Governor, and Judge Thompson, of this city, for Judge of the Supreme Court. Both are gentlemen of excellent records, honorable, up- right and able; they will combine many elements of success, and will have a decided influence in har- monizing the party. In the event of the democrats carrying the October elections, and itis one of the possibilities of the day, the national re- publican party will lose much prestige in Pennsylvania, and the liberals and democrats, although not united in fact, will be in Influence. Their combined efforts will’ lose the State to Grant. This, I learn on good authority, is part of McClure’s programme. He told me before he went to Cincinnati that “should the Cincinnati Convention prove a failure, we have our arrange- ments so far perfected with regard to the State, that we will carry it in spite of Grant and Cameron and ail the rest of them.” MR. GREELEY’ NoMTNATION is regarded here as the best that could have been made, although no one supposes for a moment that he will be elected. ‘The democrats will not suppor!

Mr. Gree- ley has always played a very strong hand for Penn- Sylvania patronage by bis pet polley of protection. He will find when he needs their votes most he will receive the fewest, for the democrats propose making It so warm for both Grant and Greeley this coming fall that neither will get a majority of Penn- bylvania's votes. ~ “In another month we shall have the National Re- publican delegates with us, and the country will ‘men have an opportunity of judging from the »tton of the Convention and the expression of f ing dt develops who is the fittest to rule our nies for the next four years.

Morton VIRGINIA. csiracaerathnieaei The Greeley-Brown Ticket Fally En- dorsed in the State—General Growlers on the Political Warpath Against the Administration. RicuMonp, May 8, 1872, Three or four days have now passed, during which the people here have had time to fully con- sider and weigh the exact political value of the Cin- cinnati nominations, and I have yet noticed no abatement of their determination to give them a cordial support. To be sure, the enthustasm of the first day has blown over, but this has been followed by a sober earnestness to vote solidly for the ticket which promises reformation in the ctvil service of the country and general amnesty and freedom from the alleged military rule which has been tmposed upon the South during the present administration. Of course, I allude particularly to the democrats, but a large number of republicans might be classed as having precisely the same views,’ Of all the lead- ing politicians of the North, Sumner not excepted, there is no man with whose record the Southern people are so intimately acquainted as that of HORACE GREELEY. They know that he was a free-soiler, an aboli- tionist, and a protectionist, and they Know lus crotehets, but they know besides that he is an honest man, who will adminiéter the government | for gard the good of the to any party alone will ensure him support. Added to these, Greeley’s magnanimity towards the South since the close of the war has won the affections of the people. Of course they do not forget that he became the bondsman of Jef- ferson Davis at a time when there was no political capital to be made out of it; but, on the contrary, he received the universal condemnation of his entire party. Then his enlogy of Lee and Jackson, when he was at Vicksburg, Miss,, is a strong card with the southern people, Though THEY MAY REJECT HIS THEORIES and ideas, they know he is not tainted by political corruption; that he is a man country without affiliations, and — this their most cordial re- ; of generous impulses, and, If elected to the Pre- sidency, will discharge the duties of that ofMfce in an honest and impartial manner, What has most disheartened the people here since the nomina tions vere made is the manner in which thev had been received by the copperhead press of the North, which has, with few exceptions, endeay- ored to throw cold water on the Cincinnati move- ment. This is conceived here generally to be a most unwarranted assumption of political authority on the part of the copperhead press and an inva- sion of the rights of the democrats of the South. They argue, and with great force, too, that the South is more tinge 4 interested in the next Prest- dential campaign than Py, other section of the country; that in epee ofit that sacred fight of the American citizen, the writ of habeas corpus, has been suspended; that citizens have been ar- rested and imprisoned by the military without war- rant of law; that the best citizens of the South have been deprived of the right to hold office, and that the federal offices in this section have been filled by the most unprincipled set of men that ever cursed a country. IN THE CAMPAIGN that is to ensue the cause of the South is more deeply involved than that of any other section, and hence the South being willing to endorse and sup- port the Cincinnati nominees, it was at least to be expected that the Northern democracy would vol- unteer their support, instead of, as they are about doing, involving the country in greater disaster than it has yet known. This is the universally ex- pressed Nee of the people here at the position assumed by the Northern democratic press, and it is having its effect in making them more careful as to how they shall follow any political suggestions in the future emanating from the same source. On the other hand, the press here which at first un- equivocally endorsed the Greeley ticket—most of the papers enthusiastically—became alarmed at the decided position assumed in opposition by the Northern papers, and, half fearful for the results that might happen in the future, many of the PAPERS HERE ARE NOW INCLINED TO BACK DOWN from their first endorsement. 8) ing of this dis- satisfaction among its Northern democratic contem- poraries, the Engutrer, which at first was very en- thusiastic, concludes an article to-day as follows :— We regret this exceedingly, because in the South we 'y to make almost an: are read ‘compromise that will in- Jical party and rescue us e beheve Greeley and Brown would be as good Instruments for our redemption as any that could be selected ; but they seem so distasteful to the Northern democtacy that wo fear there will ‘be wreat dimeulty in rendering them acceptable by that party. Areaction may take place, but we cannot conceal our apprehensions that what we look upon us the very strong- est ticket for the South ly likely to prove the weakest at the North. Hoping for the best we shall await the action of the conservative party of Virginia and be governed en- tirely by its decision, The Dispatch, however, sticks zealously to its first sition, and is, perhaps, the best exponent of feel- ing here. It says to-day :— In Horace Greeley we have a man whose national devo- tion is as comprehensive as t of Mr. Monroe was; and he is as ardent in his desire for a thorough reunion of the eople and the States as ever Mr. Monroe could have been. He has been the main instrument in the formation of a new party out of the cruel and unrelenting war party, Whose relgn excludes all possibility of peace and good feeling. Its disruption affords the only hope of the resto- ration of harmony. It cannot be dethroned in any other way and if the movement thus begun by Mr. Greeley is sustained by the union of all patriotie and liberal people the object hie had in view in separating Roret will be effectually acomplishes he from the party In —viz., the re-estab- ishment of the Union in the hearts of the people and the 1 lard of harmony and good will throughout the and. THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION VETOED. The only apprehension felt here for the success of the Greeley-Brown ticket is the calling by the Na- tional Democratic Committee of a National Demo- cratic Convention. I think that if a vote of the entire Southern democracy could be taken for or against the calling of this convention there would be an overwhelming majority against it, and in fact the minority would be so small as to make scarcely a respectable baker’s dozen, and these old impracticable secessionists. This is now the pre- vailing subject of discussion in political circles, It is canvgase very negivable shape, and the universal froprt marvel als that in the pres- ent political situation it would be fatal to the oppo- nents of the Philadelphia nominees to call that convention, and would inevitably insure the success of the latter. THE LIBERALS, which here are classed as the repnblicans who favor the Cincinnati movement, are both numer- ous and influential in the State, Some time ago I was informed by a leading Grant republican that alarge number of the most prominent democrats in the State had pledged themselves to vote for Grant and to use their influence for his election in the event of a Tha fd Bata democratic ticket bein, nominated. This information was corroborate: from other authentic sources frequently since, but since the nomination of Greeley and Brown all of these gentlemen have expreased themselves as staunch ge of that ticket against any other that may be placed in the field. With the large liberal republican element in the State, the mass of negro voters, which the name of Horace Greeley will draw from Grant, and the undivided support of the conservatives, Virginia will be carried over- whelmingly in November next by the liberal noml- ees, OFFENCE AT GRANT'S APPOINTERS. A main objection fn this State to General Grant is the bad taste with which he has selected some of his appointees to the federal offices. A large num- ber of them are exceedingly unpopular, even among republicans. Rush Burgess, @ Petersburg secessionist, who afterwards turned Union man, ‘was rewarded with the office of Collector of Inter- nal Revenue for this district for his conversion; and General John E. Mulford, a Union soldier, was ousted to make room for the newly born republican. Mr. Burgess has made a very good officer; but few can see the justice of putting a man like Mulford out to make room for Burgess. THEN MISS LIZZIR VAN LEW, the Postmistress here, has kept matters lively in that office since her appointment. She has proved herself, according to her subordinates, a petticoat tyrant of the first water, and through her misgov- ment has kept the mails in a most irregular and disorderly condition. The first result of her tyranny was the resignation of all the mailing clerks in the office, which for a time threw that de- partment of the office into chaos. Then the city couriers struck because of the unwarranted dis- charge of the city distribution clerk, and then there was a letter epidemic in the cit, for over a week, ilmatters were again final usted. Now comes the discharge of andther mailing clerk for some whimsical caprice of this Postmistress, | threatening another panic among all classes of the community, Altogether such appointments give general dissatisfaction, and these are but instances of the generality in the State. MICHIGAN. Grant Still in the Ascendant—No Oppo- sition to Him Outside the Democratic Ranks—The Liberal Republicans Dis- appointed—Adams and Greeley Should Have Been Nominated. : Derrorr, May 5, 1872, To say that the people of this city and State were astonished at the result of the Cincinnati Conven- tion scarcely expresses the feeling. Those inter- ested more particularly in the liberal movement, a8 well as nearly everybody else, thought that Greeley would have the least strength in the Convention of any of the candidates, and they had their hopes fixed in another direction. The delegates from this State undoubtedly refected the true feeling of the lberala whom they went to represent in voting so unitedly and steadfastly for Charles Francia Adams, and regret has been frequently expressed that he did not get the nomi- nation. But Greeley, “old farmer Horace,” good ‘a8 he is, is not strong in political friends in this sec- tion of the country. How he may be taken up by the farmers of the interior can hardly be estimated yet; but his few friends have sanguine hopes for him in the rural districts, THE NOMINATION FELL FLAT HERE. No enthusiasm had appeared in behalf of the Movement at any time; but yet of course great in- terest was taken by all parties in the result. More conservative democrats than one would have had any idea of two weeks ago were secretly hoping that some one would be nominated that they could heartily support, and yet be in accord with their own party. Adams, Brown dr Davis they could easily have come up to; but the present candidate is too ultra for them, at least at present, except as the one alternative for Grant. Now even the most weak-backed are in favor of a democratic candidate, one with a good record, upon whom the party can unite, and they think that with the re- publican strength divided they stand a very fair ohance in the general election. But it is with the result to the republican party itself that the politi- cal world is most interested. THE FRIENDS OF THE ADMINISTRATION, who are strong, and, in fact, control the State of Michigan, affect to consider it “not much of a shower"—a farce ridiculous from beginning to end—and say that no weaker nomination could have been made, If all the States of the Union were held as strongly in hand by Grant and his friends as is this that would undoubtedly be | true, and each must necessarily see the situation from his own standpoint, colored at least by the predominating influence in his own locality. LIBERAL LEADERS DISAPPOINTED, | The leaders of the liberal movement here are by no means elated with the result of their labors. After voting for Adams as long as a chance re- mained, they finally gave a reluctant acquiesence in the will of the majority, but not without @ strong suspicion that all was not exactly as it | should be. Their enthusiasm and most lively in- | terest in the movement have been seriously damp- | ened, and tt will require extraordinary energy to arouse it again. As far as heard no steps have been taken to ratify the nominations, nor has there been any public’ demonstration of satisfaction whatever, As the chairman of the State Commit- tee of the liberal movement informed your corre- spondent yesterday, the ticket was “A WET BLANKET ON OUR HOPES.’? The same gentleman, Duncan Stewart, althongh always a republican, 18 an out-and-out free trader, and takes exception to the platform adopted} especially the compromise feature on that subject, which he characterizes as “a slippery plank.” He is more outspoken than most of his colleagues, but probably they feel very nearly the same way. THE GERMAN KLEMENT. Asregards the German element here, which was the greatest strength of the liberal movement, the ticket will probably divide it. Brown they would gladly support, but Greeley is not in favor with them. But influence may quite likely be ous to bear upon them which will overcome their dislike for the head of the ticket. Carl Schurz was for- merly a resident of Detroit, and has influence with the Germans greater than any man who could be found. Earnest appeals from him would decide the wavering, and turn back those who had strayed from the way. The Irish vote is pretty well divided, a Greeley could probably take the republican part of it. But taking it all in all, with Grant on one side and Q Straight democratic ticket on the other, Greeley would stand a poor show in the State of Michigan. The State can be depended on, almost without uestion, for Grant in any event. The Republican State Convention will be held on the 16th instant. and will endorse him as the choice of the party in this State, The democratic idea is to wait for the result of the Philadelphia Convention, hoping something favorable may turn up. GEORGE W. JULIAN ON THE POLITICAL SITUATION. The following letter from Mr. Julian, who was a Vice President of the Cincinnati Convention, was addressed to the méeting of the American Temper- ance Commission and Reform League, held at Stein- way Ilall on Tuesday, the 7th inst. CENTREVILLE, Ind., May 5, 1872. Dean MR. PowkLt—I have Just recelved your letter Ms ine to attend and address the anni- versary meetings of the American Temperance Com- mission and the Reform League, to be held in New York, on the 7th inst. I would gladly do so, but have only just returned from Cincinuati, and am obliged by imperative business to leave home again at once, having time simply for a brief word in re- sponse to your desire that I should say something respecting “the political situation and prospects.”’ To a man like yourself, who has put on the whole armor of reform, the path of present olitical duty may not seem very well deflned. The situation is certainly somewhat novel and peculiar, As to General Grant, the thought of supporting him and the men around him, whose instrument he {s, has seemed to me 80 morally preposterous that I have never entertained it. Asan alternative I shalf co-operate with the ltberal republican movement. It is by no means all that I want. The action of its Convention at Cin- cinnat! shows that it will not fully meet the de- mands of the hour, It was clearly not prepared to confront the first question involving the disputed right of one-half the citizens of the republic to a voice in the government which they are obliged to saphor’ and obey; and I sincerely regret also the unfriendly spirit manifested by a portion of the Convention towards two representative women, whose earnest and resolute demand to be heard was dented them. There is room for criticism as to other points. But the liberal movement is not yet an organized political party, fully equipped for action, and does not pretend to be. Itisonly the clear sign that such @ party is needed and the transition to its formation through the rupture of old parties which {t must produce. The situation to-day reminds one of the nebulous condition of our politics in 1854-5, out of which org emerged the star of republicanism that lighted our way’ to national salvation. As practical men we must take the material at our disposal and do the attainable work which is nearest and most immedediately pressing, and that is the breaking up of old organizations whose work is done, whose tyranny is fatal to all independence and manliness, and whose existence threatens the moral life of the people. We must destfoy the military aut and organized thieving which find their congenital home under the sheiter of the present administration, and this preliminary work will open the way fora reconstruction of parties on the real issues which the course of events and the logic of politics will necessitate. The master is the builder, The work of destruction must precede that of construction, and [ would summon to tt all who will labor, feeling certain that this is the chosen and sure way to any real progress, now or hereafter. Very truly, yours, Sere GEORGE W. JULIAN. NEW HAMPSHIRE. Sawyer's Nomination in Jeopardy. Cc ORD, May 9, 1872. The nomination of George Y. Sawyer, of Nashua, for Attorney General, by the Governor, has been rejected, the Council refusing to confirty it. THE ALABAMA OALL. MONTGOMERY, May 9, 1872. The Democratic Executive Committee has issued a call for a State Convention to meet on the 19th of June. FATALLY ORUSHED BY A RAIL CAR, On Wednesday morning, Peter Ebelina, an Italian boy, left his home, 223 Varick street, to play with some other boys, and later inthe day took a freight train of cars belonging to the Hudson River Railroad Gompany and rode up town, At Thirty-first street and Tenth avenue Peter attempted to Jump from the car while it wasin motion, and in doing so fell before the wheel, which passed over and crushed his body most fearfully. The poor boy died in the ambulance, while en route to Bellevue Hospital. Coroner Herrman, who has charge of the case, gave a permit for the removal of the remains to the residence of his parents. FATAL STREET RAILROAD CASUALTY, Yesterday afternoon, while Mrs, Abby Christian was on her way to Calvary Cemetery; for the pur- pose of planting flowers on the grave of her de- ceased husband, she accidentally fell off the front of an open car on the Grand street railroad, Williams ae and was instantly killed by the front wheels of the car passing over her breast. The remains of the unfortunate lady were cohveyed to her late residence, 281 South Fifth street, 88 than @ year oe, the husband of the deceased lady, Mr. Andrew Christian, was killed by being thrown from bis wagolk s THE COURTS. ) Madame Fraloff's Laces—The Whiskey Bing In- dictments—Liability for Payment of Stolen Coupons—Action to Recover on a Mort- gage—Decisions—Business in the Court of General Sessions. UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT. Mme. Fraloff’s Laces. Before Judge Shipman. The further hearing of the case of Olga de Maluta Fraloff against the New York Central Railroad Com- paby was resumed yesterday. It is an action, as already stated in the Heraxp, by the plaintia, who is a Russian lady of distinction, to recover fromthe railroad company damages for the loss of a large quantity of antique and valuable laces, which she claims were worth over $100,000, and were stolen from her trunk while she was travelling in the train between Albany and Niagara Falls. Mr. Buck- ley and Mr. Girard, of the firm of Platt, Girard & Buckley, were counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. Strong and Mr. Shepherd for the defendants. DEPOSITION OF MADAME PRALOFF. The deposition of the plaintiff, Madame Olga de Maluta Fraloff, was read by Mr. Girard. It covered several sheets of manuscript, and was an extended and detailed account of her visit to America and of the character and description of the laces she had lost. She valued them at abut $115,000. According to the traditions of her family, these laces had been in their possession over two hundred years, and had come to her by gift and inheritance. Her family line was stated to go back for a thousand years, she being descended from one of the Tartar chiefs conquered by John the Terrible. TESTIMONY OF BARON DE BODISCO. Baron de Bodisco, late Secretary of the Russian Legation, and now Consul General of Russia, was called to testify to interviews that he had with Mme, Fraloff and also as to the right, under the law of Russia, of a married woman to hold a sepa- rate estate and a right of recovery. TESTIMONY OF LOUIS VON ‘HOFFMAN. Mr. Louis Von Hoffman, a banker, gave evidence with regard to the standing and credit of Mr. Vou Webber, who was Mme. Fraloff’s compagnon de voy- age in this country, TESTIMONY OF MRS. ESTHER CARTER. Mrs. Esther Carter was further examined, Sho stated that in order to give the value of old English point lace and point d’ Alengon, it would be neces- sary for her to have the articles or samples of them before her, for there were a good many quaiities of these laces, the difference being In the texture and fineness. A great many other questions with reference to the Value of laces were put to the witness, but they were ruled out by the Judge as inadmissible, As yet no specimens of the laces owned by Madame Fraloff have been exhibited in Court, It appears, however, that when she made her deposi- tion in this city, before a United States Commis- sioner, specimens were offered as exhibits, but owing to their value, which was considerable, the Commissioner declined to be responsible for their safe keeping. The further hearing of the case was adjourned till this morning. UNITED STATES COMMISSIONERS’ COURT. The Whiskey Ring Indictments. Before Commissioner Shields. Simon Steinfeld, who is indicted for alleged con- spiracy to defraud the government in relation to the payment of the tax on whiskey, appeared before Commissioner Shields yesterday and gave bail in the sum of $5,000, his surety being George Horn, 20 Madison strect. Edward W. Welke gave bail in a smilar amount on an indictment for a like charge, his sureties being Jacob W. Frank, 828 East Forty-first street, and John Hupfeld, 253 West Thirty-first street.

Action to Recover on a Mortgage. Before Judge Joachimsen. Laura E. Miner vs, Charles Seeley.—This was an action to recover $990 balance on a bill of sale of a billiard saloon amounting in the gross to $2,000. On the execution of the bill of sale defendant paid in advance, as part payment, $500, giving a mort- gage on the property for the balance of the pur- chase money, which plaintif claimed was by con- sentof the defendant to be paid within a given time. Failing in this the mort; was foreclosed, the property seized, and was sold for $500, deduct- ing fees, leaving a balance of $990 due, for the re- covery of which the ion was brought. The defence set up was, that the defendant at the time ofthe alleged sale and bi in was intoxicated, and was entrapped into the transaction; that the transaction was one In which the defendant in- curred no personal lability, after having given a chattel mortgage to secure the payment of the balance, beyond whatever goods selzed brought at the sale. Verdict for the plaintif’ in the full amount. MARINE COURT—PART 3. A Gold Transaction. Before Judge Gross. Alfred Dawson vs. Morton, Bliss & Co,—This ac- tion is brought by the platintiif to recover the price, in gold, of fourteen coupons which were bought by the defendants under the following circum- atances:—The plaintiff? was the owner of fourteen Union Pactfc Railroad bonds, from which he cut the coupons to have them cashed. While riding down town he had the coupons stolen from him. The defendants being the financial agents of the railroad were notified not to redeem them, but in @ few days, as they were Whaat by @ respectable firm of Wall street brokers, who had bought them without any know!l- edge of their being stolen, they redeemed them. The defence is that the bonds having been bought regularly without any knowle of the theft, and the defendant having acqui his title to them from the brokers, had @ good title, and also that as the bonds and coupons were payable to bearer joey were ne “able justrumonta and coyld be Passed from hand to hand like bank bills. The Oourt reserved its decision. COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. The Legislature Upon Concealed Weap- ons—The Recorder Disapproving of the Act. Before Recorder Hackett. During the summing up in the case of John Cor- coran, charged with shooting at James Simpson with a pistol, which took place in this Court on Wednesday, resulting in the disagreement of the Jury, Assistant District Attorney Fellows alluded to the fact that a law was passed by both branches of the Legislature including pistols among weapons which citizens are prohibited from carrying about their persons. His Honor the Recorder, in cl the jury, made some well-timed ‘olee! btisae ef this matter, regretting that such a statute passed both houses of Legislature and was now sent to the Governor for his approval. There were, he said, in this community about wat thousand men who were daily Violators of the law. They robbed, they murdered, and committed all crimes known to our laws; and the effect of such a law prohibiting aceable citizens from carrying Weapons Would be to render good and respectable men utterly defenceless. Any gentleman going home at night, met by the rufans who will c weapons whether the law forbids it or not, would be exposed to their depredations and murderous designs. He thought that men who were so impul- sive as not to be able to govern their tempers ought not to carry weapons; but, in his opinion, the Leg- islature had committed a gross error in passin, such a law, for, so far as he himself was concern: he had repeatedly received threatening letters and had saved his life three times by having a weapon in his possession. : Burglary. Michael Donohue and William Asselford, jointly indicted for burglary in the third degree, pleaded uilty to an attempt to commit the offence. On the 2ist of April they broke into the liquor store of John White, 83 Baxter street. Asselford was sent to the State Prison for two years and six months. His confederate was remanded for sentence. Absent Jurors Fined. Asthere has been some difficulty experienced since the commencement of the term in securing the prompt attendance of jurors the Recorder directed the clerk to fine a number of absent jury- men one hundred dollars each. Acquittal. Alfred Loweth was tried and acquitted of a charge of assaulting’ Samuel Clark on the 8th of March with some sharp instrument, the testimony for the defence clearly establishing the fact that ie complainant and his two brothers knocked him own, Judgment Suspended. James Casey, John Hunt and Richard Bowen, | charged with stealing $75 from Herman Bunzer in June, 1871, with force and violence, were convicted | of a simple assault and battery, The defendants having proved good character and other mitigating | circumstances being shown, the Court suspended | judgment. Assault and Battery. James Johnson ‘was tried upon a charge of felonious assault and battery. Daniel Buckley swore that on the 2ist of March the defendant, who was employed in a gas house with him, had | some words with him, after which Johnson struck him two blows on the head with a shovel, inflicting serious injury. Before the complaintant was ex- amined he said that he wished to withdraw the complaint, but the Recorder would not permit him todo so, The jury rendered a verdict of guilty of simple assault and battery. His Honor remarked that that was the most extraordinary verdict, under the testimony, he had ever heard. Pierce Welsh, a youth, was tried for stealing a ocketbook containing $50, on the 15th of April, rom Casper Lieif, in East Broadway, The jury failing to agree, were discharged from further con- sideration of the case. Emma Couch Bailed. Just before the adjournment of the Court Emma R. Couch, indicted for writing blackmailing letters to the Rev. Dr. Carter, was brought from the Tombs and bailed in the sum of $5,000, Philip Kearney becoming her bondsman. It is said that her father was in Trntbing £6) take the erring daughter to his home, in Dutchess county. COURT CALENDARS—THIS DAY.

A HUNGRY BURGLAR. He Breaks Into a Seminary, Helps Htm- self to a Supper, and Ransacks the House. At an early hour yesterday morning William Shan- non, @ red-headed, dissipated-looking individual, forced open the basement window of the Theologt- eal Seminary in West Twentieth street, and, finding his way to the dining room, struck a light. Hunting around the place he found plenty of provisions, and placing them on the table sat down and enjoyed the first ‘square meal’ he had devoured in many a day. After filling himself to his heart’s and stomach’s content he took the cloth from the table and filling it with silver forks, spoons, clothing, &c., packed it up ready for removal. Not content with the plunder he: had secured he ascended in his stocking feet to the room of the Rev. Dr. Seabury, one of the professors in the col- lege, on an. Cod floor, and commenced “cleaning” that out, While he was thus busily engaged Mrs. Seabury awoke, and, beholding & strange man standing in her room, gave a scream, which so frightened the midnight intruder that he took to his heels and made bw strides for the front door, followed by Mrs. Seabury, shouting “Watch! Stop thief!" The young man, however, succeeded in making his way to the street; but the shoutin; Mrs. Seabury attracting the attention of Officer Killer, of the Sixteenth precinct, the latter began a search for the burglar, and succeeded in fmding him crouched down tn one of the small windows along- side of the seminary, he having in his possession a few articles of clothing, which were recognized by Mrs, oor as her property. The prisoner was arraigned before Justice Cox, at Jeflerson Market, esterday morning, and denied the charge, but wes ily committed for trial. AN ACTOR OHARGED WITH LAROENY. Charles Manly, an actor, playing at the Bowery Theatre, was arrested by Oficer McCormack yester- | day morning, and. arraigned before Justice Cox, at Jefferson Market, upon complaint of Michael Shannahan, of 691 Greenwich street, who charges that on the 6th of Lied Wadd he stole a boat from valued at $100. ie com- plainant testified to finding the rooeery, = the eae of the prisoner, Who 1 to deliver it up.

WIDENING BROADWAY. } The Case in the Supreme _ Court. Objections to the Report of the Commissioners of Estimates and Assessments—The Grievances of Property Holders—Argument of Counsel, An application has been made on the part of the Mayor, Aldermen and Commonaity for confirmation of the report of the Commissioners of Estimates and Assessments in the matter of widening Broadway from Thirty-fourth street to Fifty-ninth street. The case came up yesterday in the Special Term, Sa- Ppreme Court. It appeared that all the Judges be- fore whom the question could be discussed were more or less interested in the matter, many of them residing in the vicinity of the localities proposed to be widened, and consequently did not take part in the proceedings. Judge Gilbert, of Brooklyn, pre- sided, Quite an array of legal talent appeared to oppose the confirmation of the report on the part of prop- erty owners who complained of grievances, It will be remembered that the report of the Commission- ers, Just appointed under the act of 1869, was set aside, on motion of Mr. Richard O'Gorman, Counsel to the Corporation, acting under the law making provision for such motion passed in 1871, The de- cision of Judge Cardozo set aside the report and referred it back to other Commissioners, It was ap- Ppealed from, but was supported by the decision of the General Term and recently by that of the Court of Appeals. Counsel to the Corporation (with whom was Mr, Vanderpoel), in opening the case yesterday stated that he presented the report of the majority of the Commissioners appointed, and as he saw counsel representing parties In the matter in attendance, and was not aware whether they intended to ob- ject to the report, and, if so, what was the nature and extent of the objections, he would suggest to the Court that the proper mode of conducting this discussion would be that those gentlemen should proceed to state their objections, and after they had done s0 an adjournment should be taken, so that the Counsel to the Corporation, act- ing on behalf of the city, should have time to eXamine the objections made and act thereon as ie should be advised, In this case there was the peculiar embarrassment that the Commissioners, after signing the report of the majority, had om- cially notified the Corporation Counsel of an inten- tion to present the minority report, setting forth wherein he differed from the decision of the major- ity. This report, he was informed, was now in Court, and he believed it to be his official duty to lay it before the Court. Although acting in a capacity subordinate to the Court, he (counsel) be- lieved his duty in this proceeding was similar to that imposed on the Court—namely, to advise such a course of discussion as seemed best for the city and fair toward the parties whose property was taken. The Court decided that the discussion should be conducted in the manner suggested, Mr. Anderson, on behalf of fifteen property own- ers, then proceeded to open the case and point out the objections they entertained in reference to the report. He contended that the Commissioners had not the jurisdiction claimed. He also objected to the insufficient awards made, upon the ground that the Commissioners had erred in the principle upon which they made their awards. He had no doubt that the Commissioners were desirous of doing their duty in a faithful manner, yet proper estimates had not been made of some portion of the real estate in question. Counsel then gave a history of the law under which the Commissioners were appointed. To the principles of assessment he broadly objected. The improvement of Broadway in that portion which is to be widened was, he urged, of no advantage to the owners on the improved street, but only to those above and_ be- low—that is to say, to those entirely in favor of the proposed widening and straightening, 8o far as value Was concerned, The assessments, however, were made to a much further extent be- low the commencement of the alteration than above. He claimed that other rules governing the area of assessment were ridiculous—one side of an avenue intersecting the improvement bein, assessed and the other not assessed. The city ai large, in his view, was the chief party benefited and that the special advantages to owner were com- paratively small. He called spectal attention to the roperty of Mr. Maas, which was assessed nearly 1 25 a square foot, while the next block was as- sessed just about half that rate without appreciable difference. He also called attention to property leased by Mr. Lawler in 146th and 148th street stating that in the assessment he was allowe simply the value of the buildings and not the lease- hold,” He urged, in conclusion, that all that the property owners asked was fairness and equity in making out the awards and assessments, Mr. Delafield said that two reports were submit- ted—one called a majority and the other a minority report. The majority report was prepared by Messrs, Wood and Jones, two of the Commissioners, and the other by Commissioner Hennessey. Having defined the points of difference in the two reports, he re- viewed the laws governing the assessment of dam- ages in cases like the present. He insisted that it was a firmly established point of law that the three Commissioners should meet in consultation and then prepare their report. In this case no notice was sent toCommissioner Hennessy. He called atten- tion to the resignation of Mr. A. T. Stewart and the subsequent action of the Commissioners. A meet- ing of Commissioners Wood and Jones he pro- nounced illegal and high-handed. They struck off from assessment a large area, from Sixty-sixth to 100th street. He would not say that either of the Commissioners was corrupt, but it was a singu- lar fact that one of them owned a whole block exempted from the assessment. Mr. Hennessy was 80 Cae ages that he entered his protest against it. He spoke at length of the action of Commissioners Wood and Jones in regard to the $1,500,000 assessed against the city, and stated in this connection that they saddled $300,000 upon the city through simple misinterpretation of their orders. He called the attention of the Court to the difference in the arrears established by the former and the present Commissioners. As to Fifth and Madison avenues, he insisted that they were in- jured rather than benefited by the roposed widening of Broadway as it opened a rival thorough- fare. He insisted that Mr. Hennessy’s report was the only one that should be confirmed, Mr. Ritchell objected to the area of the assess- ment, and insisted that the report should be sent back for correction on this account. The assess- ments on different portions were assessed on differ- ent principles and unequally, and they had not as- sessed city property. ie gave numerous cases in corroboration of these statements. * Mr. Martin called attention to the assessments in other cases, claiming that gross injustice had been done, and that the report should be corrected in this regard, He made a strong point also of the dis- cordancy of the Commissioners. Various counsel in turn called attention to specific cases in which it was claimed injustice had been made, either in awards or _ assessments, or both. Among these Mr. Gratz Nathan, called attention to property on the northwest cor- ner of Broadway and Thirty-fourth street. This prop- erty has a front of forty and a half feet on Broad- way, and belongs to G. W. Pell. He claims that the property is worth $80,000. If the harassing subject of widening Broadway could be forever set at rest, and the street be allowed to be what it strictly should be, a business street, this property, it was urged, with the portion of the building, would to- day readily rent for $8,000, making a principal of $114,000. Tt was afact well known that property | on the west side of Broadway for retail business purposes commands twice as much ren& It seems to have escaped the attention of the Commissioners that the block between Thirty-fourth and Thirty- fifth streets sustains a greater injury than any other block on the entire line of Broadway affected by the widening, in consequence of the already excessive width of this part of Broadway. At this point the street 1s 141 feet wide, and {t is proposed to increase this twenty-five feet, making it 160 feet wide. Altogether it was claimed that the award was inadequate, and should be $80,000 instead of. ir, R. H. Cudiip stated that he. owned the block between Forty-sixth and Forty-seventh streets, ou the east side of Broadway, alsa the southeast cor- ner of Broadway and Forty-elgan street and Broad- way and Forty-tuird street. The awards given him amounted to $138,000. If the same percentage had. been allowed him as to his neighbors on the oppo- alte side of the way he claimed he would have been allowed $300,000. All the objections to the confirmation of the re- port being heard Mr. O'Gorman desired an adjourn- ment to.enable him to have an interview with the Commissioners to ascertain the correctness of otherwise of some of the statements of counsel. The Judge ordered aa adjournment till the 20th inst., when he will hear the answering argument of Mr. O'Gorman, CASTING BREAD ON THE WATERS. On the 15th of February last Charles Colden, a colored man, visited the house of a colored friend named George Mills, of 531 Broome street, and, rep- resenting he had no money, nor any place to sleep, wasfarnished with @ meal and allowed to remait allnight.
