Is To Be Taken Care of and Released from the Tyranny of Masters and Landlords—The Act to Go Into Ope- ration August 6. The office of the United States Shipping Commis- sloner of the port of New York, Seaman’s Exchange, as? Cherry street, was opened yesterday morning, but not for the transaction of business. The act creating this Commission states that the law shall go into effect on the 6th of August, so that all ves- sels Clearing on and after that date will have to ship their crews from the oMice of the Commission. Cap- tain Duncan, the Commissioner for this port, says what the enforcement of the act will meet with much opposition from the landlords and shipping Intelligence oMices, for the reason that it will de- ‘troy the business of both. And this the captain thinks very necessary for the improvement of “JACK’S" CONDITION, Jnasmuch as he is “bled” and imposed on by both these parties. Heretofore these agents and land- jords used to make ar ement for the shipment of “Jack”—who, acco: ¢ to law, is entitled to ne month’s pay in adyance—and draw his first money for him. When ack” applied for his money from the landlord he was presented with a trumped-up bill for board, gin and extras which he ever received, If the poor tar denied having re- celved the things charged to him the clerk of the house was sent for and asked to explain, the one hackneyed explaination all the time, “You were arunk when you called for these things and what do you know about it?’ With this explana- ition “Jack” has to content himself as best he can. He ships and when he ts discharged he never gets ‘what has been promised im, and 60 he is always cross and unwilling and sometimes MUTINOUS AT SEA, ‘The act entitled Ap act to authorize the appointment of sbinping. com> Pissioners by the several Circuit Courts of the United tates, to superintend the shi ping and discharge of sea- men engaged in merchant ships belonging to the United States, and for the further protection of seamen, 4s almost a transcript from the English law, and ‘was gotten up by the American Seamen's Friend ciety about three years ago, and placed before the United States Senate by Senator Cole, of Call- fornia. The Seamen’s Friend Society have labored very hard for the passage of this bill, and on the 7th of last June they saw their efiorts crowned with success. About fourteen of the landlords have banded to- gether for the purpose of resisting the law, as far as it relates to forcign vessels, but their most earnest efforts wili be without avail, inasmuch as the Custom House oft clearance unless xy have passed the Shipping Commissioner. Notwitistanding this opposition of the landiords there aro many, in fact, a majority of them, who are working with the Cominissfon. ‘When men are shipped both the men and master have to sign an agreement, of which there are three copies, one for the Commissioner, one for the Custom House and one for the master of the vessel. ‘The Commissioner will not ship a man unless he “is sound and healthy, and all men going before the Commission wili be examined. Another measure adopted by the Commissioncrs for the saicty and benefit of “Jack” is that wien he is discharged he shall get a CERTIFICATE OF CHARACTER, capealty, &c., and in a short time men will be shipped on the same basis as they are in England, Captain Duncan says that this isthe reason so many seamen who are shipped from this country are dis- charged in England, where no seaman will be taken unless he has a certificate to show. Hereafter the men wiil be paid off in the office of the Commissioner, who willsee that they are not cheated and that justice is done tothem. All theem- ployés of this bad phn ave required to take an oath that they will not receive any bribe, gratuity fee or present from any one other than the salary they are to receive from the Commissioner. \. All crews shipped on and after August 6 will have to be shipped irom the Exchange, otherwise no Clearance can be obtained. DEPARTMENT OF DOCKS, The Department of Docks held their weekly ses- sion yesterday. Acommunication was received from the North Shore Staten Island Steamboat Company, applying for a lease of a pier at the Battery now in process of construction. The application was denied. Superintendent Westervelt presented a report stating that an addition of 112 feet by 20 feet had ‘been made to pier 50 North River; that a portion of anew pier at pier 59 North River is finished; that @ new pier at Oliver street, between piers 3u and 34, is completed, and that repairs are being made to various otier piers. ‘The report was ap- proved. other pit pe 8 ap- report and suggestions from Professor Henr; Mitoliell regarding deposits of dvedging matter tf the harbor was then read. It recommended that the Board enjoin upon ail persons having charge of depositing the proceeds of dredging, under orders of the department, to empty scows in lines ag nearly parailel with the shore as practicable, and begin as close in shore as they can, so that when the sea sweeps down the ridges the whole ma: merge into the natural opening of the shore, ani leave no Isolated shoal to bewilder vessels,” ‘The report was adopted and the Board adjourned, THE FAT BOILING NUISANCE, To THE Epiror or THE HERALD :— Will you oblige one of your many readers by stating ifthereis any possible way to put a stop to the fat beiling establishments on the North River side, between Thirty-fourth and Fifticth streets? Every evening, in particular, the smell seems to increase, Last night some friends and myself were out on the balcony smoking, and the stench being so at it drove us in. The HeRawn, I notice, is in- defatigable in its efforts to inform the heaith authorities of the situation, (out they seem as reti- cent as cver) and the danger of allowing such places in close proximity to Las populated portion of the city. Thanking you on belaif of myself and others for your cflorts, I remain, ONE OF THE VICTIMS, Baw Yons, Sist July, 1872, NEW FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. The Features of wall Street To-Day.

Competition Among the Trunk Lines. The Treasury Situation and Re- duction in the Public Debt for July. REVENUE RECEIPTS. WALL STREET, Trrspay, August 1-6 P, M. On ’Change to-day wheat opened firm but quiet, with moderate offerings. Winter is scarce and in demand, the market closing with a fair export in- quiry. Flour is more active upon slight arrivals and a small stock. The market closed steady, par- ticularly for medium and high grades of extra. Cot- ton was tame and dull at 20%c. for low middling, and 21gc, for middling. The interest on the street was most largely attracted by the applica- tion of the new tariff, which went into operation to-day. Elsewhere will be found particulars of scenes at the Custom House when the importers commenced to get their goods out of bond. The point is worth stating here, however, that THE LARGEST CUSTOMS RECEIPTS ever recorded at this port were obtained to-day, amounting to $2,318,000, This is but the commencement of this rush upon the Cus- tom House, it being a physical fact that the clerical force there is not equal to the work of discharging the bonded warehouse for days yet. To-day they surprised not only themselves, but the merchants; but this was only a spurt for which preparation had been made. To-morrow or next day they will be fatigued, and some delay in delivery must be expected. The principal point outside of its effect upon gold connected with this sudden movement of merchandise is TPS INFLUENCE UPON THE MONEY MARKET. Two million three hundred thousand dollars of duties represents & large amount of goods. When these goods are drawn out of bond, of course, they are to be distributed, This will agitate capital, transportation will have to be paid for, although from the promised reduction of the freight tarit this consideration is not so material; but, with the maturing of notes due upon delivery, and the gen- eral movement that will result therefrom, in con nection with the meeting of contracts, it is safe to expect some excitement. GOLD 11534. Gold touched 115% to-day, a natural consequence of the conditions above mentioned. The customs receipts to-day were the largest ever received at this port upon any one day before, but the circum- stances were exceptionable, hence the excitement. If Congress had only made the Ist of July the day on which the new tariff would go into operation they might have saved the business community from the present agitation, but the 1st of August is so near to tne busy season that merchants are anxious to get hold of their goods as soon as pos. sible in order to meet their orders. The rates paid for carrying were 2, 3 and 1 per cent to flat. The prices of gold were: + 15% 12:15 P.M... 1:36 P. 2:51 P. 2:57 P. 3:15 P, 4P. M... The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as follows:—Gold balances, $2,687,632; currency balances, $3,265,723; gross clearances, $58,166,000, The Assistant Treasurer paid out $397,000 on ac. count of interest, and $70,000 in redemption of five-twenty bonds, Outside of gold, which fur- nished the principal topic of discussion in conse- quence of this tariff sensation, ERIE WAS THE ONLY FEATURE OF THE STOCK BX- ERzez! CHANGE having any personal movement. This arose froma break on the other side, the result, it is confidently stated, of a growing distrust in the new manage- ment. Bischofisheim & Goldschmidt are credited with being sellers and anxious to relieve them- selves of the incubus of this security, which pays no interest and is not readily convertible into cash, It is also said that the Atlantic and Great Western interest is seriously disappointed after having spent a million and @ quarter of dollars to capture Erle, that it is found like an endorse- ment, “without recourse.” The fire, too, has hurt Erie, and it is FILTERING THROUGH THE BRITISH MIND that they have been badly sold im this whole busi- ness. None of the men connected with the reform movement can command the confidence of the people. To enumerate them we may particularize the leader, who is simply @ purchasable politician; next comes the greatest failure in the railway history of America, & man who built a road commencing nowhere and ending no- where; again, an Assistant Secretary of War of an administration that never punished a defaulting naval agent and an adventurous Bohe- mian on the press of New York. These things tell in time; the public may be moved by enthusiasm for a week or month, but eventually they become critical, Thus is Erie settling. THE GENERAL STOCK LIST was heavy and lower upon the announcement of a Teduced tariff for Westward bound freight, the re- sult of competition between the different lines to catch the business likely to immediately follow the operation of the new tarif, It is sald the Baltimore and Ohio were the first to lower their rates, but have not yet declared their tgtlm The following all-rait rates of freight from New Work have been adopted by all the leading trunk lines, excepting the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and will go into effect to-day. These rates are a reductiowof about twenty-five per cent upon the former figures :— First Seconda Third Fourth Class, Class. Class, Class. From New York to— Fort Wayne, Ind. Grand Rapids, Mich.

The banks are certainly largely impover- ished, and this demand, connected with the move- ment of merchandise so long held back, is likely to give them some trouble. We are also behind in the movement hither of the various crops. Wool should have come forward before; next comes grain; next pork, and after that cotton. Prepara- tions are in progress to meet the demands of this vast trade; hence the growing stiffness of money. The discount market has not yet felt the effect of these forward influences, and is still steady and casy.

SUNDAY LAGER. . Brooklyn Beor Mon Aroused—Indignation Moose ing Yesterday—The Police Commis sioners Denounced. ‘The German lager beer dealers of Brooklyn an@ the lovers of that beverage are highly incensed over the action of the Police Board of that city im ordering their saloons to be kept closed on Sum- days. Last Sabbath tho Excise Police “ukaso" was enforced with great severity, as they contend, and several dealers in the Teutonic beer were arrested and fined. They feel the action of the Commia- sloners of Police all the more bitterly because they have heretofore believed that the representation of their nationality in that Board, in the person oO Commissioner Sigismund Kautfmann, would secure to the Germans of Brooklyn the “priy- lege of enjoying their lager with their families on the Sunday—the day of rest with thens from the labors of the week. But the more fact of the arrest of many dealers was not the only outrage with which they had to contend. By order, an arbitrary ‘‘ukase’’ they hold, the Captains of Polico were forbidden to allow the Justices of the Peace the privilege heretofore enjoyed of going to the station house, and bailing out those who were ars rested on charge of violating the Excise law. The consequence was that every dealer and barkeeper taken into custody was compelled to pass the night in the cells of the station house, aud march with the prison horde to the courts on Monday morning. The Germans who felt thus outraged met om Weinesday and determined upon giving public ex- pression to their indignation. A call for a masa meeting, signed by Colonel Urban, Joseph Strauss and other prominent Germans, was accordingly promulgated among those who are most interested in redressing the wrong. The meoting was heid at 436 Fulton avenue yesterday afternoon, and waa wellattended, Among those present were Captain Schwitzer, Albert Adler, John Kissel, Henvy Miller, Join Kern, John Brown, Bernard Kiein, H. Moby, ex-Sergeant Ulrich (of the police), Frank Schmidt, I, Jack, H, Brechtel, H. Davidson, John Wunder, The meeting was called to order shortly after ol, who explained he then elected y remarks 1p German, during which jated an indignity to which he had been subj: dby the police on Sunday last. He said he had opened the front door of his saloon to allow the milkman to enter, when an oficer sneaked in and arrested him for violating the Excise law. Subsequently, however, he was re- leased at the.police station. His saloon, he ag- serted, was not open at all for business, The mecting then elected Mr. Karl Vollman Vice President and Mr. B, Degenkolb Secretary, after which a series of resolutions denunciatory of the actton of the Police Commissioners was read and adopted, Mr. JosErit H, Strauss being called for, responded promptly, and addressed tie meeting in the Ger- man language. He said that he felt sorry that there was any occasion for a meeting of this kind. Hie had suffered enough in his own country and did not think that he would have to again in this free land, Mr, Strauss referred to the recent order of the Police Commission- ers as oppressive and tyrannical, and remarke: in connection therewith, that the ditference be- tween New York and Brooklyn was, that in the former city the Excise Commissioners issued orders while in the latter the Police Commissioners did that. He was also very severe upon the German Commissioner of Brooklyn—Sigismund Kauff- mann—and claimed that Kauifmann had not done his duty towards his fellow-countrymen, He also contended that it was the duty of the democratic Commissioner, Mr, Briggs, to oppose such an order as the one that had been issued. Mr, Strauss referred to the actions of the police in sneak into saloons by the side doors and insisted tha' they had no right to do so. Why don’t they arrest other parties—political rowdies and law breakers ? “Ah,” said Mr. Strauss, “there isa nigger in the fence.” (Yah, yah.”) When a man’s front door was closed the ‘police had no right to enter his place and arrest him and take him from his wife and family, A man’s house was his castle, The speaker suggested the appointment of a commtt- tee to ascertain how far the Police Commissioners really had a right to proceed, Then Strauss wandered. He discussed politica, and took occasion to express his preference to Grant over Greeley—the latter of whom he said had once asserted that democrats were vagabonds and thieves. He also spoke of the oupreas ion Germans Were subjected to, and finally returned to the Ex- cise law, which he declared was unconstitutional, He closed his speech by asserting the rights of Ger- mans to have thelr lager beer on Sunday, as well as any other day, a8 long as they were quiet and not disorderly. Mr. Wounpzr ignored politics in this matter, but claimed the right to Sunday beer drinking, Mr. KxssEL, a delegate from the Eastern District Soclety, briefly related the result of a visit of their committee to the lixcise Commissioners, The Com- missioners said that they had not prompted this order, but that it was the work of Kaufmann and Jourdan, He urged a union of all the lager beer sellers in this matter, for unless they were united they could accomplish nothing. aR Other speakers followed, and the meeting ad- Journed about five o'clock, REAL ESTATE NOTES. The Vanderbilt enterprise has given an impetus to enterprise in Westchester county, and several large property owners are stimulated to offer their property this coming fall on the market. Among the estate to be sold at auction in villa plots are “Larchmont,” better known as the Collins’ estate, Huguenot Park, and soveral tracts at Throgg’s Neck, Fordham, Rye, White Plains and Mount Vernon are likely to be well represented. There is a great deal of activity in real estate at Nyack, on the Hudson, which town has recently been brought into more accessibility to the metro- polis by several new lines of railroad and improved ferry accommodation. The initiative sale of a series will be given by A. J. Bleecker, Son & Co., on Saturday. The estate is known as Court Bril- liant, and is situated within a few minutes’ walk of the railroad depot and steamboat landing. On this occasion about one hundred lots will be offered, The tendency of population to seek residences in @ northerly aii ion is becoming every day more apparent. New Jersey will now have to enter into direct competition, This sole interest demon- strates the fact that property-owners along the line of the Hudson feel that the market is opening for them with more activity and promise than im former years. The fall season will witness an ac- tive movement in prop up the river. A considerable transformation is now going on between Kighth street and Canal and Broadw: and East Broadway. The whole region has almog' entirely been filled with wholesale stores, and the streets between South Fifth avenue and Broadway, north of Canal, are being rapidly transformed int a business district. The new avenue 19 itself set- ting the adjacent streets a food example by the erection of fine substantial brick, stone and trom buildings along its whole length. This region will eventually become the new site for the wholesale trade. Grand Park, Westchester county, on which the late Andrew Wison, Jr., expended so much time and capital, will soon be brought into the market. This tract, on which the deceased neta ex- pended $300,000, comprises about six hundred acres: of villa property. It was paces in the hands of a trustee to be disposed of. The title claims to be first pald amounted to $240,000, next the claims of certain Western creditors, amounting to $60,000, and after that the proceeds are to be divided pro rata among the general creditors. The system of long payments for suburban lote, and especiaily the monthly instalments, finds favor with the laboring classes, and several new enter- prises in Long Island and New Jersey will soon be announced, The recent number of successful sales indicate a reviving demand for suburban homes and restores confidence among persons Of moderate means in real estate as an investment. Prices for lots, say within hgh and of the City Hall, have ranged from $69 to $400, except in the cittes. average las been about $160 per lot, payable abous thirty per cent cash and seventy per ceut on bond and mortgage three years, THE WEEKLY HERALD.
