Judge Pratt's Arguments for the Proseoution— Injunctions and Receiverships—The Erie Railroad Litigations. a SanaToaa, August 12, 1872. ‘The Court of Impeachment reassembled at ten ‘o’clock this morning, twenty-six members present. WHAT 18 IMPRACHABLE. Judge Pratt, of counsel for the prosecution, proceeded to open the argument presenting tthe legal aspect of the case. He first no- ticed the claim on the part of the counsel for the defence, that only crimes which ‘were indictable in their nature were impeachable, and insisted that misbehavior on the part of a Judge, conduct whicn was a complete perversion _ Of the duties of his office, were, according to high authority and precedent, impeachable. To support hhis position he read from Russell on crimes by per- sons in oilice. POINTS OF LAW. The Judge next, for the benefit of lay members of the Court, detailed proceedings in actions at law, «showing provisional remedies, and explaining ob- fects and purposes of the issue of injunctions upon this head. He cited authorities to show that the right to an injunction was not absolute, but was left almost entirely to the discretion of the Court, which should carefully examine Into the facts and circumstances and eee if the party applying should have it. The com- plainant must show that he is entitled to it, and that there is danger pressing upon him which delay enhances, He then referred to the -case of the election of Erle directors, and said it “would take three years under the operation of the classification act to do what the complainants claimed was danger- oon preasing upen thelr interests, There could have been no im te danger, and, there- fore, it was — 8 pl case for an injunction- ary “injunctions, and sald. "no" cases?” could no cases Col ‘be found {in the books where such tnjunc- in for ti of investigation, and were not ore to do an act i bat in viola- tion or ents gad tice we find these CAUSE FOR INJUNCTION, Another well established practice was that cause for an injunction must be established upon Lpomey all ions, and not upon information and belief. He noticed that in some of these cases the alle- ‘ were absolute, when, from the nature of the seircumstances, the facta were from information and* belief. He next noticed the object of the appointment of a receiver, Which was that the property might be preserved from waste. It was requisite, according to tho tice, that the party making application should ve an interest in the property to be put in the fags of a receiver. But Fisk had no interest the property for which. he asked a receiver in the Erle case. eee ee must always be ap- inted in open urt. Counsel thought it strange that a New York city judge only could hold court anywhere and at any time for this pur- pose, Jucbscs in the country could-not do it, and he ‘was unable tosee why a New York judge should have the privilege. He also criticized the power to grant a writ of agsistance prior to 3 Gecree by Court ren@ag suthori for execution, and he had never cries eae ied in bp A sion of perso: . These rutes,he shid, were made for the of courts and j bave jurisdiction to tasue such ordors, and the ques- tion comes up here before this Court of Impeach- ment, has not there been violation in every case cited in the articles of impeachment? He said it “was possible for a Judge to make errors, but in these cases it waa cleat that these orders were issued in direct defiance of these rules. BARNARD’S AVAILABILITY. Counsel then criticised the complaints, claiming that Swe were insufficient. He then examined the action of Judge Barnard, and insisted that for ali <our Judges to pursue such 4 course as he had would result in destruction of all our Uberties and in the establishment of an tule, Ho asked why it was that these shre ee bad men always went to Judge Barnar ir these orders, and said it was because ey knew their man; and they went to him in the street, at the opera house, at Miss Mansfield’s; they called him away from the deathbed of his mother to perform this service for them; they used him at the very ortals of the grave. Why, he asked again, was this Judge selected to perform this work, and why did he always perform tt? He closed by appealing to the Court to ooo ie its duty fearte and without favor, a3 upon i! decision, he sald, rested the main principle which upholds our government—the maintenance of a pure and unspotted judiciary, THE COLLUSION OY BARNARD AND FISK. Mr, Stickney, of the counsel for the Paperldecd then addressed the Court in review of the circum- stances connected with @ number of the cases in which orders were issued. The counsel apoke some two hours, passing in review every circumstance as detailed in the evMence, with a view to show that Judge Barnard acted irre; rly, with- out jurisdiction and in collusion with Fisk, Gouid and others with whom he was in cogaizecy. Before Mr. fe had concluded the hour of three o’clock arrived, and the court adjourned till to-morrow morning. ATTEMPTED ROBBERY OF A POLICEMAN, An attempt was made ou Stinday night to rob Doorman George MeClary, of the Nineteenth pre- cinct, of a gold watch, worth a good deal of money. It was shortly after twelve o'clock, and he was just in the act of turning off the sidewalk to enter his own house, when two young men rashed against him. One of them made a grab for the watch, but caught only half the which broke, and the watch was a ey then rao uway. McClary attempted to follow, but was without etther pistol or club, and as a jen when one of the thieve turned roun ‘and Rneras him of their track, he did go, and turned as go back to home. After they had gone & short distance however, took up their trall again, seein, they separated and ran in different di ong. He followed one, who ran yap into the arms of OMcer Sheehan, of the Nineteenth precinct.

The market closed higher. Cotton wes quiet and steady at 20%c, for low middling and 21%<c. for middling. GOLD 115% A 11554. The gold market ranged on extreme quotations between 115% and 115%, the principal business of the day being at 11544. The quotation was made of 11534, but it is doubtful if any sales occurred at that figure. The closing figure of the premium was 115%, the market ruling dull throughout the day. Cash gold was in free supply, from 2 to 4 per cent being paid to have it carried. The Assistant Treasurer paid out $8,000, gold, on account of five- twenties redeemed, and $74,000 for interest. The customs receipts were $573,000, The operations of the Gola Exchange Bank were as follows:—Gold balances, $2,747,809; currency do., $3,165,247; gross Clearances, $32,881,000, The following table shows the movement of the gold premium during the day:— FORRIGN BXCHANGE WAS DULL, but firmer, with actual business at 108% for sixty days and 109%; for short sight.

The chief interest of the street centred in the stock market, where the bears made a sharp raid early in the day, carrying prices down through- out the entire list. Western Union led the decline, going off to 6934, but recovering later in the day to | 2 72. The recovery is attributed to the correction, semi-offictally, of a false impression that the com- | {i pany had been selling their own stock, the sales being stated to be by outside parties intimate but not connected with the management. With this rally in Western Union the whole list reacted the market, leaving off dull but strong. The other favorites were Union Pacific, New York Central, Lake Shore, Ohio, Rock Island, €. ¢. and I.

Action in the Nisi Prins Court of Philadelphia to Prevent the Con- struction of the Stanhope and Other Portions of the Road. PHILADELPHIA, August 12, 1872, The National Railway Company, a regularly char- tered organization which professes to construct a double track railroad from Philadelphia to New York, is meeting with much opposition from the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, who now have the exclusive control of the united railroads of New Jersey. The National Railway leased the right on July 1 to construct the Stanhope Railway, a road which is designed to run from the Pennsylvania Railroad through some parts already designated, As some stockholders of the National Rail- way have brought an action before the Supreme Court, asking that tribunal to restrain the National Railway from collecting the recent assessment of five dollars per share, levied for construction pur- oses, on the ground that the lease of the itanhope’s Railroad Company's franchise to the National Ratlway was illegal, the piaintifs in the case bring forward a document, signed by tho President of the Senate and Speaker of the Assembly of New vipa alleging that the charter of the Stanhope Railroad Company was surreptitiously altered, and that the charter in the original manuscript and that in the ofice of the Seoretary of State are diferent. —The National Railway deny these COREEEE, and state that no matter what the opinion of the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania By be the construction of the road will progress without interruption. THE STREET BANNER LAW. An Interview with Commissioner Van Nort and Mr. E. B. Shafer—Interesting Statement of the Law on the Subject— A Private Banner to be Hauled Down in Howard Street as Being @ Nuisance. In conversation with Mr. E. B. Shafer, Superin- tendent of Street Encumbrances, yesterday he stated :—“The political banners so far crected have been under permission from the Commissioner .of Public Works, bat no permits for private or trade banners have in any cases since Commissioner Van Nort came {nto ofice, last Fall, been granted by him. In considering the question as to whether | banners floating in the air in the streeta were en- cumbering or obstructing the light and air I came | to the conclusion that all people siiould be allowed the free use and enjoyment of the streets from the ground to the heavens, and that no person or per- sons without lawful Pinay could infringe upon | e this right. In this i Judge Koch. ‘The matter of hanging private banners, while a means of extending or advertising business, is in a great Many cases an obstruction and an interfer- ence, by preventing people hi their windows and occasionally interfering with ventilation, as ———— effect to alter the current of the air, Uundoubtedly hereatter, when p:oper Ihave been sustained by complaints are made to this department for the re- | moval of encumbrances of the like nature, the | decision of Judge Koch will be accepted and the | encumbrance removed, Several complaints are now on file in the oMce of the Bureau of Encumbrances, and action will be taken upon order of the Commissioner of Public | Works.

Murphy's Wheelbarrow Bet—The Latest Political Move—The Grand Ball at the West End. Lona BRancn, August 12, 1872, ‘The arrival of President Grant on Saturday after- noon restored to the Branch its missing magnet of attraction, He was accompanied by General Shert- dan, Lieutenant Frederick Grant and General Porter. General Sheridan remained the guest of the President until this evening, when he loft for the West, Little Phil is as full of fun asever, He is becoming quite fut and wicked. Tho chivalrous- looking soldier of yoro has changed into a jolly- looking bon-vivant, His legs seem to staggor under the increased weight of the upper man, I saw the General! at she West End Hotel yoster. day. His merry eyes gave me a knowing wink, while his right hand grasped mine most cordially, He expresses himself quite delighted with his trip. to the Thousand Isles—siys he never caught 8o many fish or enjoyed fishing so much as he did on hia excursions from Mr, Pullman’s place. He at- tributes his piscatorial success to his belng a pa- tient fisherman, After I left him he fell into along conversation with Mr. H, R. Gratz, lately Secretary of the Amert- can Legation at St. Petersburg, whom he had met during his travels in Europe, and subsequently had a talk with General Wilson, the captor of Jeff Davis. Wilson en parenthése 1s very bitter on Uncle Hor- ace for having bailed out the rebel Chicf Magistrate after he had accomplished the arduous task of catching hi, General Wilson fs for thia reason, if for no other, a zealous supporter of President Grant, General Sheridan will make a tour of about two thousand miles in an ambulance through the Far Weat to inspect all the military posts and eatablish- ments. He haa invited Mr. Thomas Murphy to ac- company him, but the latter has thankfully de- clined, A WHEELBARROW BET. Speaking of Mr. Murphy, I may as well mention the amusing bet he has made with Mr, Larry Jerome on the Presidential election. The condl- tions are as follows:—if Horace Greeley is elected in November Mr. Murphy undertakes to pay $500 ta Mr. Jerome. If he ts defeated and Grant receives: the Presidency for another term Mr, Jerome under- takes to wheel a wheelbarrow seventy-five times. round the race track, @ distance of more than seventy five miles. Thero is no stipulation as to whether the wheelbarrow shall be loaded or as to the time in which Mr, Jerome fs to perform his task in case he should lose the bet; but Mr, John Chamberlin is to provide all the refreshments he might need during his weary pilgrimage round the. race course, A TALK WITH THR PRESIDENT'S PRESIDENT. I had aconversation to-day with the President ot the United States by proxy, that is, with General _ Porter, General Porter is sick—has neen saci 4 from dysentery, with which complaint Lieutenant! Fred Grant is likewise allicted. President Grant him~ sell feels a general soreness all over, from the rou; handling which he reccived ey the handshak- ing ordeal, Hisright hand has been grasped by about twelve thousand persons, many of whom were sturdy farmers, who “punished” the Preat- dential wrist most soverely. Little Phil has even outdone him in handshaking. In fact the President. says in a bantering way that it was he (Sheridan) who drew the crowd to the exhibition. ent Grant, accompanied by General Porter, will probably leave on Wednesday for Washington to attend a Cabinet meeting.
