14 SS _——eee—xX—O—_O REAL ESTATE MATTERS. Ganse and Effect of Stagnation in Improved Property—Fictitious Values—Sales at the Exchange’ Yesterday—A Light Day's/ Business—Extensive Legal Sales to, / Take Place This Week—The Effect of the Columbia Col- lege Purchase on Washing- ton Heights Lots. ‘Whenever a defeat occurred duriag our late “un- plcasantness” vo the Confederate side the leaders termed ‘the same a “blessing in disguise.” At present, when we have no war except such as sup- ply and demand generates, any little calamity is ‘taken advantage of, either to give an impetus or a ‘drawback to commercial and speculative industry. Thus the late Boston fire is made a hook to hang ‘upon any fluctuations or depressions, not alone in ‘stocks and bonds, but also in real estate. Dealers in the last named commodity ascribe the stagna- ‘tion in improved property to the confagration at ‘the “Hub,” but whether their judgment is based ‘mpon the insecurity of buildings generally or wish «merely to display a spirit of “bearing,” docs not ap- pear. Others, again, coutend that our Fire Depart- ment is not as-efficicnt as it should be, also that the inadequate supply of water, in case of an extensive fire, would ravage for an indefinite period without Deing subdducé; hence buildings, even if fireproof, are not the equivalent to exchange fer greenbacks san investment. ‘This and similar lame argu- ments are advanced by operators in real estate, and the consequence ef all is that no reliable quota- tion of improved property can be ob- tained upon which to base any calculation for future referenoe, The valve of “adjoining” land, at one time, used to be a criterion to go by in order to estimate the price of a house or lot, or both. As it is mow every owner makes his own valuation, and mo matter how absurdly high the Agures are placed, there are still those who are de- mented enough t0-become the victims of a foolish man’s fictitious. appraisement, and in this manner uptown property has been screwed up to a tension whieh some fine day will certainly snap on the Blightest additional pressure. While it is no more than just and proper that a Jot 25x100, located in a first class Jocality, should ‘Bring $40,0004f Mr. A. can afford to pay for it, Mr. B. who comes afterwards and wants to secure the ‘adjoining plot, is made to pay $50,000, merely be- “cause Mr. A, bought his property, and gave the weighborhood a respectability; hence the latter pays penny @ high price. This is no fancy ketch. Uptown lots have jumped in price in the ratio here quoted without any justifiable cause that canbe assigned for the emormous rise, ex- cepting such as was the advice of the showman, “who proposed that “You pay your money and you ‘take your.choice.” A stringent money market has had considerable infinence in retarding real estate operations— otherwise there would not be so many Court sales of Pa pal 3 atthe Exchange that have occurred and are announced to take place during the en- suing week. Scarcely a day passes but some piece of property is disposed of at auction by orderofa referee for some cause or another. The following legal sales were effected yesterday ‘at the Real Estate Exchange, 111 Broadway :— By E. H. Ludlow & Co., by order of.0...A.Jackso1 Referee, the four story house on the south side ot East Filty-fourth street, seventy feet west of Third avenue, to Henry J. Burchell, for $28,000. By James M. jer, under direction of Nathaniel Fs ty Jr., Referee, No. 83 Carmine street, to Ber- n&ra Armend, for $26,800; No. 85 Carmine street, to Frith & Hitchman, for $26,100; No. 81 of the same street had also been advertised for sale, but before the auctioneer received the first bid the de- fendant to the suit settled nis liability and the property was withdrawn, A house and lot, north side of Filtieth street, sixty feet west of Lexington avenue, lot 20x49, was sold ‘to William Joyce ior $15,800. Beyond the sale of a afew shares of miscellaneous stocks the above were all the transactions had at the real estate mart yesterday. Several valuable pieces of property, located east and west, contiguous tothe Central Park, Grand Boulevard and Washington Heights, will come into market this week. Negotiations are now bending, which purchasers are desirous to have kept secret. Messrs. Aufenger & Ehrenreich, 33 Pine street, offer at private sale nine first class three-story and basement brown stone houses on 123d street, Detween Fourth and Madison avenues, each 19.6X50x100, These houses, being located so near Mount Mor- vis Park, will readily find purchasers, as this vicin- ity is rapidly filling up with the best class of resi- dents. The same firm reports the sale of four lots on 120th street, between Fourth aud Madison ay- enues, 856x100 feet, for $35,000, The real estate transactions by order of referees uring this week bid fair to be very heavy, judging from the numerous lots advertised by decrees of he Court. The anmexed list willbe 1ound valuable for reference, as it includes the sales for the ensu- Ang six days:— MONDAY, DECEMBER 2. 20th st.,8.8., between avs. B and CU, house and lot. oe w24see ss. 256x923 20%th st., n. 6., 75 tt. w. from corner Ist av., house ‘and lot.

Considerable activity has been noticed in Wash- ington Heights property during the past week. Although it was expected that the purchase of nine and three-quarter acres made through Messrs, Potter Brothers, of Nos, 4 and 6 Warren street, to the Columbia College, would improve Jots in that vicinity, yet the most san- guine did not dare to anticipate such @ decided advance in price and value. ‘The deeds for the new Columbia College site were beer a few days ago, and it is rumored that the ‘faculty will soon adopt energetic measures louk- ing towards the erection of a magnificent edifice, Buch @ One a8 will reflect the highest credit upon 8o Wealthy and renowned a corporation, and at the same time be an ornament to the classic and enchanting locality upon which the college is to be situated. THE TARRING AND DEATH OF ORAIG. 4 Contumacious Witness—His Arrest. Coroner Herrman yesterday commenced an in- ‘vestigation in the case of John Craig, alias “John- ay No-Coat,” a vagrant, whose death in the Charity Hospital, it had been alleged, was the re- sult of violence received by being beaten in the groggery 76 West street on the 8th ultimo, then itched headlong into the street and subsequently his head and body besmeared with tar by some hangers-on around the rim shop. The at-mortem examination made some days ago y Deputy Coroner Cusiman proved conclusively that death resutved trom natural causes, and not by violence. As tie tarriug of Craig Was @ gross out- rage Coroner Herrman summoned witnesses with tre view of showing who the guilty Seay ties were, and among them was fob Kyan, of 102 Washington street. Ryan, it is represented, wasaware who applied the tar to deceased, and when summoned to appear as a wit- ness treated the matter with deciied indifference, Lng told the officer he might come or not as suited convenience, that he had not reecived his fee, &c. Coroner Herrman, to show that his mandate uid not be treated with con- tempt isstied a warrant for John Ryan, and he Was subsequently arrested by OMicer Slavin, of the ‘Twenty-seventh precinct, and held to bail in $500 fo appear and give his testimony on Monday next, orneling McQuate, alias Hays, was also brought up by Officer Siavix', but released by the Coroner on pay thatJie would be forthcoming when wanted, ‘ CUSTOM HOUSE AFFAIRS. —_—_—e—_— Respect for the Memory of Mr. Gree- ley=Pay Day Among the Employes— The Receipts for November for Duties, $7,299,000— Refunded as Over-Paid, $102,560—The Surveyor’s Vacant Desk ‘To Be Filled by Civil Service. As soon as the hour for business arrived yester- day at the Custom House Collector Arthur ordered the United States flag hoisted at half-mast, out of respect to the memory of the late Horace Greeley. ‘The death of the great journalist visibly affected everybody, and those who a few days ago were his most inveterate opponents sadiy deplored his untimely end and paid all due praise to his great- ness. ‘The regular monthly pay day of all the govern- ment employ¢s occurred yesterday, As each man received his check from Assistant Auditor Jacobs he looked his happiest. Many of these men had very little to shew after liquidating the petty debts accumulating during the tmrty days they had to wait for the paymaster to come along. While it is conceded on all sides that tae govern- ment employés—especiatly the clerks in the Cus- om osu are very poorly paid, yet the rush of Sepionat for positions under the civil service rule has been immense, The Board of Examiners for the Collector's office—Messrs. cist decker and Benedict— have been in session during the past week exam- ining invo the proficiency of candidates competing for promotion. Their recommendations have been handed in to Collector Arthur, who will make the ‘appointments in a few days. ‘ne receipts di the past menth, as reported by Mr. William D. Robingen, the venerable Cashier, amount to about $7,289,000. Considering the re- duction in tariff, backwardness of vessels arriving, and that there were ony, Mat ge age working days during the month of November, the income of the government for this period, as compared with last year this time, may be said vo compare more than favorable. ‘The following amounts were refunded on over- pea @uties during the past month ‘or warehouse. - ae $31,410 Fer consumption 71,160 WOU... cesecpnsssiecconvembiarongescsepe eG h@nOOd The vacancy in the Surveyor’s department in Place of Mr. Cornell is creating a lively excitement ‘among office-holders and seekers generally, The number of aspirants jor Mr. Cornell’s desk is legion, but itis currently reported asa fact from Washington that President Grant has determined to apply the civil service tactics to this vacancy, as he has to the Philadelphia Post Office, amd pro- mote one of the present de) uty surveyors. Other- wise everything is very quiet in the Custom House and likely to remain so for some time. BROOKLYN AFFAIRS. Police Arrests. There were 861 persons arrested in this city by ‘the police last weck. Buildings Blown Down. During the prevalence of the high wind about one o’clock yesterday a row of three story and basement frame buildings, in course.of completion, on Lewis avenue, near Willoughby, was biown down, The owner of the structures is Captain O'Leary.

Deceased had red hair, was dressed in black cloth monkey jacket, dark pants and gaiter shoes, The remains were taken to the Morgue for identification, Burglaries. The residence of H. S. Lonsdale, 459 Ninth street, ‘was broken into at an early hour yesterday morn- ing and robbed of silver spoons, napkin rings and table linen amounting in the aggregate to the value of $100. The police are “looking after” the thieves—as usual. Ninety dollars’ worth of gas fixtures was stolen from the dwelling house oi Mr. Stillman, 63 St. | Jona’s place, some time last night, Station House Inspection, President Jourdan and Inspector Folk, of the Police Department, yesterday made a visit of in- spection to the several station houses of the West- ern district, for the purpose of ascertaining their general condition, and devising, if necessary, the Means for improving arrangements that in their judgment may seem inadequate to meet the re- quirements of a perfect system. New locks are to be attached to all the cell doors to prevent any fur- ther escape of prisoners. Recovery of Remains Among Fire Ruins. The workmen employed in cleaning away the Tuins of the front walls of Woodruff & Robinson’s storehouses, which fell in on the 21st inst., burying man named Patrick Hassett, have discovered the remains. The body, which was fearfully disfigured, was found head downwards yesterday aiternoon, wedged in between huge piles of the wall. The Coroner was notified to view the remains. ‘De- ceased was about twenty-four years of age, unmar- ried, and the only son of a widow, who resides at the Ivot of Court street. The Health Officership. It is the intention of the Common Council to ap- Point a physician to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Health OMcer George Cochran. There are several candidates for the position, which is worth $8,500 per annum. Among the more prominent medical men mentioned in connection with the candidacy for the office are Dr. Alexander Coch- ran, Dr. Conklin, late Sanitary Superintendent of the Metropolitan Health Commission; Dr. Stiles, Dr. Crane, late of the Health Board, ana the pres- ent Acting Health Officer, Dr. Holly. The appoint- ment will shortly be made. Mortality Statistics. The deaths in Brooklyn last week were 167, being 16 less than the number recorded for the week preceding. Of the deceased 84 were men, 42 women, 49 boys and 42 girls; 43 were infants under one year and 28 were persons between the ages ot sixty and eighty-five years; 114 were born in the United States, 27 in Ireland, 13 in Germany, 9 in England and 1 in Scotland, Canada, West Indies and Prince Edward's Island respectively.

The alarm of fire was given yesterday morning, about half-past two o’clock, and the Fire Depart- ment, ever on the alert, lent a hasty response to the summons to duty. The scene of action proved to be the premises 69, 71 and 73 Water street, three buildings occupied as a spice factory by Arbuckle & Brothers. The buildings, together with the stock and machinery, were en- tirely destroyed, despite the efforts of the firemen. No. 69 was a five story brick building, and Nos. 71 and 73 were two stories in height. The structures were owned by Nesbitt & Son. The greatest alarm was occasioned among the denizens of the neighborhood, who feared a further extension of the flames owing to the high wind which prevailed and the bitter cold atmos- phere without doors; but the gallant firemen, under direction of Chief Nevins, set the fears of the or eople at rest by extinguishing the james by eight o'clock. The blaze was very great, owing to the inflammable nature of the stock, much of which was saturated with essential ois, Several horses and wagons which were on the premises were saved by the police of the Second precinct, who rendered valuable service. Arbuckle & Brothers lose on stock $20,000; on ma- set $10,000, The loss on the build- ing is $25,000. The Fire Marshal made an investigation, but failed to — ascertain the origin of the fire. There was no watchman on the premises, The fire originated on the second story of No. 69, used as a printing oMce. The | stock and machinery were insured for $14,500 in the Niagara. The Niagara reinsured the property for half that amount in the Metropolitan Company. | The buildings were insured (or $15,000, in the { lowing companies:—Lquitable, $6,000; Nassau, $ St. Paul's, of Minnesota, $1,500; Lennox, $1,500; Washington, $1,500, STREET CAR ROBBERY. A Desperate Struggle and a Complete Capture. Denton Pearsall, of the Butchers and Drovers’ Bank, was riding down on the Fourth avenue car about six o’clock on Friday evening, and a man named William Moore, who was on the rear plat- form, jostied against him and picked his pockets of $20, Mr. Pearsall noticed the movement of the thief and caught him before he was othe car. They grappled with each other and fell off the car to- & er aad rolled in the snow. Mr.Pearsail heid on to iis prisoner firmly until Moore presented a pistol. At this juncture Mr. W. H.

In the case of Anthony Eaton, late of Hunter's Point, who was assaulted, knocked down and robbed on the corner of Thirty-fourth street and Madison avenue, Thursday evening, the 21st ultimo, as alleged, by James Fitzpatrick and John Lynn, the investigation is still progressing before Captain Burden, of the Twenty-ninth precinct, James Durand, a young man living at 151 East Seventy-first street, was present at the time of the occurrence, but did not witness the assault. He, however, saw Fitzpatrick take the carpet bag of deceased, which contained a suit of clothes and other articles, kick it toward John Lynn, who picked it up and tore off portion of a card which had been sewed on the bag. OMcer Connolly, of the Twenty-ninth precinct, who chanced to be present, arrested both Fitzpat- rick-and Lynn, but the latter broke away and made his escape. Lynn, however, was recaptured the night lollowing at his residence, 636 West ‘T'wenty- SIXLL street, and locked up at the station ioaxe.

Fitzpatrick and Lynn are in the Tombs, Coroner Young will commence an in- vestigation as soon as Captain Burden and his officers secure the attendance of witnesses. ILLINOIS. SERS IS Political Grabbers Scrambling for the Federal Offices=Cool Calculations by the Wirepullers—The French Minister Said To Be Secking Trumbull’s Shoes in the United States Senate—The Bei- gian Minister Also On the Ground. Cutcaao, IIL, Nov. 22, 1872. In a previous letter the HERALD correspondent alluded at some length to the Senatorial succession in this State, and promised to give some particu- lars as to the probable disposal of the federal offices at this port and in the Northern district of Illinois. It may be premised that while Chicago, like every other large American city where the federal patronage is considerable, possesses its “Custom House Ring,” whose members control the giving of ollices, and divide the offices among themselves. This Ring, however, is confiderably smaller in point of numbers than is the wont in large cities, and its members possess a pertinacity in the mat- ter of holding office which is interesting. Judd, Han, Keefe, Rehm and others are invariably to be found filling some position under the gov- ernment or seeking one of a better classe so that the changes in the Custom House kaleidoscope are only permutations of the same materials—permutations, too, of an exceed- ingly limited rauge. The Collectorship is con- sidered the best of the oftices in the gift of the President, though one of the most onerous in its duties. Until last Sammer it was filled by Colonel James FE. McLean, a very popular man and one pos- sessed of large political influence, His successor the present incumbent, N. B. Judd, was selected, I believe, for the campaign only, as Colonel McLean was not considered active enough in using the in- fluence of his official position for political purposes to satisfy the republicans » Mr. McLean, it is understood, seeks the Canadian Consulate, and, as claims on the administration are ofa very urgent character, it would not be astonishing were he to get It. Among the aspirants to Mr. Judd’s official shoes are menttoned Mr. Philip Wadsworth and Mr. C. H. Ham, the latter the Appraiser of Customs. Mr. Ham has since last January been a leading contributor to the Grant morning epee and his appointment would be considered that paper's reward, though it would be rather hard on the proprietor, who has sunk some $50,000 on his paper in the hope of getting a Cabinet ofMice, @ ioreign mission, or the Senator- ship, ifhe should get nothing, while an amateur contributor should secure the Collectorship, THR POST OFFICE bas, it is said, been promised to General John Mc- Arthur, ex-Commissioner of Public Works, but others have it that Colonel Thomas Keefe, late spectal agent of the Customs Departinent, seeks it. A8 a protégé of C. B. Farwell, Colonel Keefe's chances might be considered good. The present incumbent, Colonel F. A. Eastinan, wit! retire from official life, The Pension Agency has been held tor pied and a half by Mr. David Biakely, of the Post, who succeeded General B. J. Sweet. ‘The appoint- ment never was @ popular one among the repabli- cans, who accused the Post of giving the party only @ half-hearted and timid support, ‘The alleged utterances of its editor in the republican caucus have alienated the tha republicans, and a change is certain. Mr. James Ayara, Jr., the Deputy Collector, is spoken of as being in the fleld; pa the Germans will, probably, pre-empt the office, . General J. D. Webster, the Assessor, and Judge Glover, District Attorney, will, probably remain in thelr offices. Should changes be made, political considerations will have less to do in the new ap- intments than is usually the case in conferring lederal offices after a campaign. Mr. Ss. A, Irwin, Chief Clerk, succeeded Mr. Hermann Raster in the Burean of Internal Revenue, when the former resigned at the beginning of the campaign. : & Raster’s resignation was only a biind to five the German republicans (who were hen moving on the | Pension Agency, under the leadersiip of Mr. Rehm) @ color of justice, by alleging that the Germans were unrepresented iu the federai offices, and it was further rumored that Mr. Raster shared the emolu- ments of the office after his nominal resignation. The latter report he contradicted at the time. General Julius White, the late Minister to the Ar- gentine Republic, is considered certain to succeed Collector Irwin. B, H. Campbell, the United States Marshal, will, in all likelihood, go to Kurope to some small mission or good Consulate. (ig A. Hoyne, Colonel Keefe aad all the republican party in the five counties are jeoked upon as aspirants to the place.

By mail from Asia we have the following interest- ing and encouraging report of the defeat of a pow- erful fleet of pirate vessels on the east coast of Borneo after a severe action, which resulted in the capture and execution of several of the sea rob- bers, the heads of sixtcen of the criminals having been stuck on poles and placed along the coast as a warning to men of the same class, A Fleet ot Sea Thieves and an Eastern Sultan, (From the Singapore (E. 1.) Times, Oct. 5.) Some time ago allusion was made in our paper to the reappearance of piracy on the east coast of Borneo and the supposed complicity of the Sultan of Berrouw with the sea-rovers, According to the New Batavia Handelsblad the Sultan has at length taken action against the pirates under the following circumstances :— A PLUCKY CAPTAIN ON A PERILOUS MISSION, ‘The Jupiter, a trading schooner from Macassar, was ona voyage along the east coast of Borneo, and after she had taken in rattans at Sesajap the native ruler of that place advised that some men should be taken on board as a precautionary mea- sure Scainay Pirates, Some sixty peteengers were embarked and sail was made for Bulangan, which lay further south, On the 18th of June the Jupiter entered the mouth of the Bulangan River and anchored in the evening, aiter having passed along a wide bend in the river. During this it had been perceived that some sus- picious craft were drawing near. SIXTEEN WELL-MANNED PRAHUS ASSAULT FOR PREY. At ten o'clock at night the Jupiter was fallen upon bya piratical feet consisting of sixteen well-mannod prahus, which had probabiy been lurking behind the reefs anc islets outside. The sea rovers did not dare to attack the well-armed and strongly manned schooner until after nightiall, under {he idea that she would then be easily surprised. CANNON ON DECK AND A VIGOROUS REPLY. The resistance made by the Jupiter, from which more than twenty shots were fired from the largest cannon on board alone, was so well managed by the captain, and was so vigorous, generally speak- ing, that the pirates, after two of their prahus had been sent to the bottom, had to beat a retreat. On this occasion two men in the Jupiter were slightly wounded. The captain was slightly wounded by a dart above the eye, and @ native passenger, who would persist in loading with ball a cannon about to be discharged (it was in the night time), had the ill luck to lose an arm. He died af- terwards from it. The noise of the fight was heard at Bulangan, but, owing to the distance, assistance from there only came after all was over. Pursuit of the pirates was naturally not to be thought of. Like certain vermin t ‘ey had al- ready crept securely into clefts and crannies. THE SULTAN SAILS FOR THE AVENGEMENT OF sO- corey. When the news of this and other piratical deeds reached the Sultan of Berrouw, he with a force of from one hundred and fifty to ong hundred and sixty Men, undertook a voyage to the piratically haunted waters and fell in With some prahus near Pulu Panjang. He made their crews come on board his vessel. [t then came out that they were es who had been exercising their ing & jong time and had made the neighboring waters unsafe. The Sultan ordered that all of them, to the number of sixteen, should be made prisoners, and took along with him their prahus also, in which were their wives and children. SIXTBEN HEADS STUCK ON STAKES A8 WARNINGS ‘LONG SHORE. The sea rovers, ill at case in their captive condi- tion, and mistrusttul of the fate awaiting them, did their best to free themselves and make their escape, The Sultan, fearing that his prize would make off in some way or other, gave orders to bring the six- er the ached ashore, where they were put to Jeath. About two or three of them had taken part in the attack on the Jupiter. The hea them all were stuck on stakes and exhibited in a shed on the sea shore as a terror to others. last accounts these heads were still to Ll there, excepting one, which had been stolen. THE FRENOH SPOLIATION OLAIMS, Meeting of New Yorkers Interested Yes- terday—A Committee Appointed and Resolutions Passed. There was a meeting of the New Yorkers inter- ested in the “French claims,” the origin of which was detailed in yesterday's HERALD, at the office of the Messrs. Griswold, at noon yesterday. About fifty gentlemen and one lady were present, and after a few words of introduction by Mr. Delafield and others the following resolutions were unani- mously passed :— Resolved, That the claims of our citizens for spolia- tlons by the French prior to 1800 were admitted by France to be just claims on thelr government, and were bartered by the Congress of the Cuited States fo obtain reliet from various treaty obligations and private claims of French citizens of large amount against the United States, Resolved, That these claims are a dobt of the Cnited States due ‘the claimants, whose private property was | then sacrificed for valuable considerations accrited to the government, while the unjust delay in their payment hag not awakenéd the obligation to pay them. Resolved, That memorials to Congress be signed by the claimants how present, to be torwarded without delay to our representatives. It was then determined to restore the old com- mittee, in existence, for many years, to its o1 al number of seven, jour members having by this time died. This committee will at once make ar- rangements for the immediate and vigorous push- ing of the claims through Congress. CITY GOVERNMENT. [OF FICIAL.) Hoard of Aldermen. Torspay, Nov. 26, 2.
