Whe Kxcive Law—Selling Liquor on Sun- day—The Law to be Enforced—Re. marks of the District Attorney and Judge Moore—The Sunday Liqaor Trafile Imoreasing Crime. Before Judge Moore and Associate Justices Johnson and Voorhees, ‘Thomas Connorton, # liquor dealer at the corner of Columbia and Irving streets, was arraigned for ‘gelling ow Sunday, He pleaded guilty, and his counsel, Mr. Dainty, thotyht that, as this was his first offence, the sentence should be a light one. District Attorney Britton said thut the indlct- ment had been found some time ago, and he had now brought it up for a specific purpose, not 80 muoh personally to the prisoner as generally, Mr. Britton suid he had ‘ound that @ Iarge proportion of the crimes committed in Brooklyn were perpetrated on Sundays or Sunday u ) und immediately” sneceeding — the revels of those days, and a large part of tie crime was traced to sel ing liquor on Sundays, Liquor dealers who violate the law should undorstand that ‘tho Court and prosecuting officer would espectall, make it their business to prosecute them, Ho tool this ocossion to say that he would make jt his especial duty to prosecute every instance of this kind that came under his observa- fion that he was able to find evidence of, and, with the co-operation of the Court, he knew this Offence would be stopped. Wile Connorton should not be punished as a scaperoat, Mr. Britton Selected his case because It aiforded him an opper- tunity to say what he had said, and he gave notice that in the future he would request the Court to nister severe sentences. souge Moore—I wish it to bo understood, in con- formity with the remarks of the District Attorney, Anat this Sanday Liquor law will be, so far as this Court i4 concerned, rmgidly enforced, and any in- fraction of it severely punished, [ want it under- stood as coming from the Court before whom such cases will be brought, and who will havo the disposal of them. I am glad this case has come up, for the purpose of giving me opportunity of saying just what Thave said. The Police Commissioners have time alter time called the attention of their officers to the violation of the Sunday law, and it 13 an Unques- tionable fact that a large proportion of crimes against the person are due to the fact that places where liquor is sold are kept open on Sunday, and people fli themselves with liquor, and put them- selves in a condition to commit almost any crime. Now, tt is against the law to keep these places open, fa much as it is to commit any other crime, an in view of the consequences thai ensue from the violation of this law, I deem it right to gay and I want to say it so that it canuot be misunderstood, that from (iis day forward the men who keep these Uquor places open on Sunday, and are convicted of doing it, shail be punished with all the severity that the ny will permit. This is giving falr notice, 86 that novo “i will be taken unawares by an indictment of prosécution hereaftor, and if Anybody does hereafter mistake this law thev eanhot complain that they have not had notice. In this case the District Attorney has no purpose of haying any particular punishment tnflicted upon this defendant. This being his first offence, we will not proceed to extreme measures in his case, but it must be understood that this trafic must be regu- tated as the law requires it, and [ hope the gentle- men of the press here will make this apnounce- ment, so that it will comé to the ears of all persons engaged in this business. : jonnorton was fined $30, which he promptly pald, Assault on a Wife. Andrew H. Bishop was indicted on the charge of committing an assault and battery, with inteat to kill, on his wife, Mary L. Bishop. The case tor the people showed that the couple separated about two ears alter their marriage, which was in 365, and the wife had not seen her husband for a prior to the ear day of the alleged ausanlt, the 13th of January last. On the evening of that day she left her house, in Wyckoff street, near Carlton avenue, but seeing her husband she returned to the house. She subsequently went out again, and while crossing a vacant lot er hnsband fol- fowed and threw a stone, which knocked her down. She did not recover from the effects of the blow for a number of weeks. The defence is insanity. The testimony of the prisoner's sister and of Dr. Perriue was to the Sffect tiat he was & hypochondriac, and believed that he had been poisoned and was belug eaten by snakes. Case still on. ‘see! THE SOUTH CAROLINA CARPET-BAGGERS, Pi shin Act a Meeting of the South Carolina Bondhold- ore—Plenty of Sympathy, but Little Moncy. An adjourned meeting of the holders of South Carolina bonds took place yesterday at the office of Drake & Bro., 66 Broadway, with a view of taking some concerted action for the collection of the over- ue interest on these bonds and the prosecution of the State officers who have misappropriated the funds collected for the carrying on of the State gov- ernment. Mr. A, A. Drake occupied the chair and called the meeting to order a few minutes after noon, There were but thirteen persons present at Hiiteen minutes after the hour named for the meet- ing. "Fir, FE. A, QuINTARD reported there had been some subscriptions made toward the fund necessary to employ counsel to conduct the prosecution. Mr. Drake said they received letters conveying sym- pathy, but no funds, “Others think that we are running this tn the interest of the South Carolina ring. We propose to commence proceedings as soon as the percentage on $600,000 is subscribed,” Mr. Quintard stated that names representing $300,000 had been secured to the list. Mr. Lewis oilered a resolution that the secretary publish a notice in all the leading papers callin; ‘upon ail holders of South Carolina bonds to call a! the office of Drake Brothers and contribute one = cent of the amount of the bonds held by them, When a suilicicnt subscription to | justify it be made a meeting to be callec, and the counsel authorized to commence proceedings, He spoke jor some minutes upon the resolution; deciared that the Governor and the financial agents vof the State were amenable to the law, aud the Governor had property within the reach of the federal court. The résolution was carricd unani- mously. Mr. BROADWELL offered a resolution instructing the committee to ask the co-operation of bond- holders in other cities. Mr. Ciicuester, of South Carolina, said that the word “repudiate” ts not found in the vocabulary of the South Carolinians, who are an honorable People but if $20,000,000 per year is to be added to he debt it is to be expected that repudiation might come. If the taxpayers are allowed in the next election to control their own affairs he had no doubt every dol'ar of the debt would be paid. He felt sure that if these carpet-bag rascals were ex- posed in the courts before election it would have a very linportant bearing upon the election. Nie. DowLrNo addressed the meeting, arguing that it wouid petter to wait until after election, for these men may not be re-elected, and the expense oution would be saved, r. J. if. TivpBARD, counsel for the committee, arged tinmediate prosecution, He declared that the faancial statement for South Carolina was wie up in this city by Governor Seort, Without any retereuce to the books, and was certitied to by the fiuanciasl bourd. | The mocting adjourned, sudject to the call of the Chair, au\ when the invitation to subscribe was ¢x- tended to those present but one signed the list. The meeting broke up into littie knots, and excited- discussed the sitnation, One gentleman declared his belief that the movement Was a stock-jobbing one, as Mr. Dowling, one of the committee, ‘1s coun- 17 he acclared, “for E.

The trio held a secret meeting, and although five | reporters waited in an adjoining room for informa- tion none was given them, It is understood that & object of the movers in this conference is to ke sure incasures to secure the past interest on the bonds and a guarantee that the bonds wili be redeemed.

Foreign exchange was lower for sixty day ster- ling and steady for sight bilis, On the first intelli- gence of the advance of THE BANK OF ENGLAND rate of discount to 83 per cent—a raise of \ per cent—sixty day bills sold at 109% to a small extent and closed 1094 a 109%. The sight quotation re- mained’ 110% a 110%. The continued absence of cable advices concerning the offering of the new French loan has given rise to a surmise that the offering of it has been postponed until later in the month. GOLD “OFF"—114% A 114, The gold market opened strong and sales were made at 114% just as the board began business; but it soon became evident that the clique had been selling, and the market weakened in a surprising way, considering that the Bank of England rate had done the alarming thing that was expected—viz., advanced the discount rate. The lower quotations for sixty day sterling and tho influence of the smaller shipments of specie—tnat of to-day being only $769,000—occasioned a gradual decline to 11434, Our bonds in London were also reported to have stood the change in the discount rate and remained steady. Indeed, i THE GOLD “BULLS,” inclusive of the clique themselves, who are yet heavily ‘‘long’’ of gold despite their efforts to make @ turn at 114%, are sorely disappointed at the in- herent weakness shown by gold to-day, and a good deal of cold water has been thrown on the gold speculation, The mystery of the refusal of gold to go up, as the clique desire it to do, is puzzling and provoking in the extreme. Despite specie ship- ments, the raising of the Bank of England discount rate and other influences usually calculated to en- hance its price, gold is stubborn and unsympa- thetic, justas if some unseen but all-pervading Power were operating the other way. This OCCULT INFLUENCE ig, Of course, public sentiment, which cannot be made to entertain a belief that gold is “a purchase” at higher than prevailing quotations. The high estimation of the national credit 1s also an obstacle to an advance in gold, not to speak of the com- mercial reasons, such as lie in the readier export higher gold allows to our domestic products and merchandias. THE GOVERNMENT GOLD SALE elicited twenty-one bids for a total of $4,195,000, at prices ranging from 114 to 114,523;. The million advertised was awarded at 114.463, a 114.5334. The Assistant Treasurer patd out $432,000 on account of interest and $41,000 on account of redeemed five- twenties of 1862.

Tho London papers received by the last mail con- tain along advertisement of the Western Union Telegraph Company, inviting proposals for $1,500,000 thirty year seven per cent first mortgage building bonds, principal gold and interest May and November, the proceeds to be devoted to the erection of the new building, on the corner of Broadway and Dey street. The loan is offered at 92 percent, less a rebate of 5 per cent for cash, which brings the price down to, as nearly as may be, par. It seems curious that a corporation of over $40,000,000 of capital, with a claimed NET REVENUE for the past year of $2,697,816 should seek to bor- row abroad and mortgage Hs property as security for 80 small af amount as a million and a half of dollars. This question aside, the advertisement 18 interesting to usin this country for the narrative which it contains of the operations and business of the company, the details of which are Usually made a profound secret by the officials here. The adver- tisement comes, therefore, in the light of an | ANNUAL REPORT, 0 = and as such will be highly interésting to the stock- holders and the community generally. England hears of Livingstone through America. New York learns of a local corporation through London. The company in offering the loan to the London public have loosened their long silent tongue. We give such paragraphs of the advertisement as tell the story :— The Western Unto Btates of Aineri: the kind in the wor the vast telegrapiric absorbed nearly Company of e largest “unde iness of te United States, having r competing lines, forming the whole into one great and powertul system, equal in im- ortance to the English telegraph service a# now adminis. ered by Her Majesty's Postmaster General. Some idea of the extent of its business may be formed trom the fact that it has in operation no less than 00,502 miles of line ‘and 133,890 miles of wire, being about 40,000 miles more than the total telegraph wires of the United Kingdom. The business of thix great underiaking is ycarly increas- Jug, as will be geen by the following table, certified to by r.

The cost of this nite (as certified by Mr. William Orton, the President of the company) waa $4),000, and the estimated cost or the building and ittinks is $400.00, to- gether $1,510.00, to provide which the J. seven per cent uilding bonds how tor subscription have been created. As special security for such bonds the Western Union Tele- graph Company have executed a deed of mortage of the above property to the Union Trust Company, ot New York (the well known trust company, and which is of the highest standing), on behalf of the bondholders, which has been duly registered, thus effectually protecting the latter in their legal claim on such estate. In addition to such special security, holders of the bonds will have the general security of the Western Union Tele- raph Company, the amountof whose share capitai is $i 510, or £4214,302 sterling, and whose bonded debt— «inclusive of the now for subscription—only amounts | to $6,080, $60 sterling. To meet the interest on | sucn bonded debt the sum of $422,798, equal to £54,559, only | is required annually; and, ay the ‘net profits earned by the company tor the year ending May 1, 1872, amounied to $2,698,716, equal to £59,568, or upwards of six tines the ntrequired for the payment of such interest, the tionally first class character of the security wiil at once be seen, apart altogether trom the special aiid abso- lute security possessed by the boudivolders in we Valuabie property in Broadway mortgaged by the Leleyraph Com- pany in favor of the bondholders. In addition to payment of the Interest the Telegraph y undertakes to place in the ands of.the Trust Company on the Ist of May in each year, for the period Alter mentioned, the.sum of $30,000 hy the way of duking fand, to be applied in the purchase by the Trust Company of a portion of the bonds now for subscription, at su prices as they can purchase the same up to ten per ceut premium way ($1100 per bond); and on such purchase e honds &0 acquired are forthwith to be cancelled. ‘The Telegraph Company may also Iteelt purchase and hand over for cancellation the said amount of bonas. Should, however, the Trust Company not be able to purchacd bonds atten premium, a higher price may be paid with the consent of the Telegraph Company, aud the suid sun of $30,000 is to continue to be set aside ‘annually until the amount of the bonds outstanding shalt be reduced to $1,000,000; and as the entire secur! ty we 1 still remain to ey, 039,900, o¥ 1, ed mo exce| the holders of the remaining bonds they will thus become still more valuable. ‘The remainder of the bonds not so purchasea will be paid off at $1,140 in gold in New York on the I-tof May, 1902, Au important option is reserved to the holders of these bonds, by the terms or which it is provided that they may be converted into the share stock ‘of the company at par, any time belore the maturfty of the said bonds.

Yesterday, the 18th of July, 1872, was the one thousandth anniversary of the establishment of the Kingdom of Norway, and the Norwegian natiom celebration of yesterday was the grandest holiday in the life of a people, all over the country, but espe- clally by unveiling a great monument to the memory of the man who, one thousand yeara ago—~+ §72—united tho then divided nation into one. Nor- way was before that me split in twenty-nine amalf kingdoms, which were called Fylkir; but one of the kings, Harald Haarfager (the Fair-haired), subju~ gated all the others, and placed the golden crowm of the whole of Norway around his fair locks, Im memory of thia event the Norwegians have erected the above-mentioned monument, which consists of an obelisk, with a golden crown on top, and twenty~ nine smaller stones (one for each “Fylki") around&k it. Each “Fylkt’ has sent its own stone, but the monument Itself is erected by contributions from the whole people, The unveiling of the monument, which is situated on the great tomb (Gravhang? | of . Harald Hoearfager at Gaard, in | the parish of Skaare, near Haugesund, was io take place yesterday, under the auapicns of the hereditary Prince Oscar, brother oi the King, Charles XV., a deputation from the Norwegian Par+ Nament, one member of the Ministry, and repre- sontatives feorm every “Fylki,” from the Supremy Court and the University of Christiana, As the resulta of the union of the whole of Nor- way under one man’s rulé had o very great influ- ence on the other parts of the world, we suall felt the story of Harald Haarfuger and his time. Harald Haarfager, who lived ty the ninth cen- tury, found himself, at hia fatuer's deatf, a king of one of the above-mentioned Fylkir. He was au energetic and strong man, Many circumstances were brought to bear upon him before he madeup his mind to become the only king of Norway. tile mother, Ragnhild, dreamed once that she saw hor beloved gon Harald as king of the whole country. She told him the dream, which he, like the other superstitious people at that time, thought to be a true prophecy from the sialGniy Odin, given ta his mother while she slept, As he came to man- hood he fell in love with a princess named Gyda, aud sent au ambassador to ask her to become his wife. But the princess answered :—“When Harald has bocome King of Norway, and not before, I wilt be his queen!" It also peaneues that some yeara before King Gorm the Old had united. Denmark into one Kingdom; Harald thought that he might do the same thing in Norway which Gorm did im Denmark, So at Yuletide, 862, Harold in the midst of hia warriors made &@ most solemn vow not to cut his hair or beard before he alone rulea Norway, And he kept his promise, He fought the othér amait kings for ten years until he at last, at the battle of Hatrsfjord, tu 872, compelled the whole of Norway to obey him aa king. When the battle was over and victory was his he told one of his jarls (earls) to cut his hatr and beard, This was not a very j easy task, because it had been oe ten yea but the Jarl Ragnoald did it and when it was done he sald to the King, “Now js your hair fair, my King!’ And after that time he’ was called Hanpfager—the Fair-haired, Now he again wooed the Princess Gyda, and she became his queen. Ag before said, the results of the union of the whole of Norway under one man’s rule hag very great influence on the outer world, The small Fylki-kings, who were defeated at rcyptreof ol me would not bow thelr head¥ under the sceptre King Harold and preferred to emigrate. them—they called themselves ‘Vikings’’—went to France, which etd jaged in the most merciless way. They went so far up the Seine that they be leagured Paris, but they did not succeed in getting possession of the capital. The fear of them was so great that in all the churches of France there were sent fervent prayers to heaven to free the country from these barbarians:—‘‘A furore Normannorum ridera nos, 0 Domine Deus.’ (Free ud trom the Meo of the Normans, 0 Lord.) tlast the King of France, Charles lo Fainéant— the stupid—did not ‘know any better way than to ‘ive the Normans a partof France to settle in, and ‘hia they called Normandy. The mighty sea kings Ganger ‘Rolf, was created Duke of Normandy, ai | lis descendant was Willlam the Conquerer, Who 1066, af the battle of Mastin: crushed the ol¢ Anglo-Saxon kiuys of Wngiand and divided the country among his warriors, WhO Were meo a: counts and baronets, and got their names inscribe in “The Doomsday Book.’’ From Normandy also other expeditions went out one of which, under the command of the sons Tancred de Hauteville, succeeded in getting pos session of Naples and Sicily; and one of the sons, Roger, was created Duke of Naples by the Po who desired his powerful alliance against the peror of Germany. Some of the Hylki-kings, who emigrated fre | Norway. went to Iceland, which they settled. ways unruly, preferring adventurous voyages the great ocean to a quiet, ‘icultural life, 801 of the settlers of Ice! went out on discov: and found Greenland and Vineland, This Vinelan 18 so clearly described in the old chronicles of Ice- land that there can be no doubt as its identity with the eastern coast the United States.

In the midst of wild scenery, with the picturesque mountains in the background, looking out over the rolling, heavy- | breaking Atlantic Ocean, is the place where King , Harald Haarfager was buried and where he has now been interred for so many centuries, At | this place yesterday the representatives of the nation which hé formed were assembled | to pay their Lictte to the great man who gave them @ united Fatherland, Yesterday mem from all the fylkis were standing there—the men fron*ystridalar, Alfheimar, Vingulmork, Vestfold, Hadafylki, Haddingjadair, Valdres, Raut hkl, Heinatyiki, Gudbrandsdaler, Grenafylki, Egdefylkt, Rygiafylki, Horda, Sygna, Ferda, Sunnmara, Raumnsdala, Orkdala, Gauldala, Stjordala, Strinda, Nordmara, Eyna, Skeyna, Vardaia, Sparrbyggia, Naumdala and Haleigjafylki—thanking God for hia mercy in the past thousand years, and earnestly praying for the prosperity and glory of their coun- try In the future, From 872 to 1307 Norway was a wholly indepen- dent kingdom, raled by the successors Of Harald Haarfager; but in 1397 the Queen of Norway, Mar- aretha—the Norwegian King Akon's widow, who ad inherited the crown of Denmark, because she | was the only child of the Danish King Valdemar At- terdag, managed to get a union constituted between: Denmark, and Sweden, which last coun’ had elected her for their queen.
