COURT OF COMMON PLEAS—ZENERAL TERM. A District Court Janitor After Hts Pay. Before Judges C. F. Daly, Robinson and Loew. Michael Sullivan, in 1870, was appointed Janitor of the Sixth District Court, pursuant to a resolu- tion of the Common Council, and $1,500 fixed as the salary. He got his pay regularly till January 1, 1872, when the Comptroller shut down oa further ments. Suit was brought before Judge Loew focompel payment, and the complaint was dis- Missed on the ground that the Common Council had no power to create the office under the tax fevy of 1869. The case came down before this Court on appeal, and was argued yesterday at consider- able length. Mr. A. R. Lawrence insisted that the prohibition as to new ofices did not include em- ers ‘which, he insisted, Mr. Sullivan simply was. r. Dean opposed, and at the conclusion of the latter’s argument the Court took the papers, re- serving its decision. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS—SPECIAL TERM. Decisions. By Judge Robinson.

Branigan vs. Crothers et al.—The complaint in this action set forth that the plaintif became se- curity for the rent of a liquor store in East Fourth street, but that, by a certain instrument in writ- ing, the defendants bound themselves to pay the rent of the same premises for seven months pre- ceding the ist day of June, 1871, and to compel which payment this suit was brought. Upon the paper relerred to being offered in evidence it was discovered that the word used in it was “succeed- ing,” and, on this ground, objection was made to its admission. Plaintiff's counsel asked leave to amend his answer on the spot, but defendants’ counsel claiming that this would be stating a new cause of action which would take him by sur- rise the cause was adjourned to give time for the ecessary change of pieadings, costs being im- posed upon plaimtuft. MARINE COURT—PART 3. The Law Governing Common Carriers, Before Judge Howland. Solomon & Joseph Waxelbaum vs. William Dins- more.—This action was brought by the plaintitfs, copartners in business at Macon, Ga., to recover from the defendant the sum of $1,000, It appeared that on the 26th of October, 1865, the plaintiffs purchased goods of the firm of Howard, Sanger & Co., of this city, and ordered them to be transported to Macon by Adams Express Company. Howard, Saager & Co. delivered the goods to the express company in accordance with these directions, and they were shipped by sea to Savannah, where they were delivered to the Southern Express Company, to be transperted to Macon by way of St. Louis, ‘The express company piaced the goods on board a steamer, ich, on its way to St. Louis, sunk in the Savannah River, and from the effects of which the goods became almost a total loss. The piaintiffs, on the delivery of the goods to them fat Macon, immediately demanded ot the defendant their full value, but which was refused. Hence this suit. During the trial of the case eonsider- able legal sparring was indulged in by ceunsel as to the admission and rejection of evidence. Plain- tiffs’ counsel sought to maintain that the defend- ‘ant was bound to transport the goods through the Safest and most direct route; that by shipping ‘them by sea was a circuitous aud dangerous route. He also insisted on proving his case as to the de- livery of the goods to and the responsibility of the the defendant by circumstantial evidence, and without introducing any documentary evidence. The defendant's counsel insisted on the introduc tion of the receipt for the delivery of the goods, The Court held that the plaintiffs, in order to pro’ 2 delivery or contract, should introduce the receipt, by the conditions of which the deiendant was bound. After the introduction of the receipt the Court directed the jury to find a verdict for the pee in the sum of $50, with interest. r plaintiils, $50; interest, $26. COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. Acquittals. Before Judge Sutherland. The first case called yesterday by Assistant Dis- trict Attorney Rollins was an indictment against Anton Worth, for stealing $50 from Mariana Burk- hardt. It turned out from the first question put to the complainant that the prisoner was her son, and that she; gave him the money, and he rejused to return it. Mr. Kintzing requested the Court to charge that the accused could not be convicted of larceny. His Honor charged that it was only @ trespass, and the jury rendered a@ verdict of not Ruilty without leaving their seats, Joseph O'Donnell, a junk dealer, was also ac- quitted of a charge of purchasing some empty selt- ver botties with the brand of Bolen & Byrne on pt nel Aa that they were stolen.

The proof was that on the evening Of the 23d of January a gold watch was stolen from Dr. Alexander McDonald while riding upon the rear platform of @ Third avenue car, tt seems that Russell Was subsequently arrested and escaped from prison. The evidence against Waish ‘was circumstantial, the principal item of proof being that he got on the car about the same tim Anat Russell did and jumped off the moment th raich wag taken, The JWLy Sede + Vb Verdict NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, MARCH 8, 1873—TRIPLE SHEET. guilty. years, An Extensive Burglary—An Acquittal and a Conviction.

A Dishonest “Drummer” Brought to Grief—the Proprietor of an Alleged “Skin” Faro Bank Brought Before Judge Dowling—He is Held in $2,500 Bail to Answer. A man named Henry Robb, who says he is a dry goods merchant in Chile, South America, came to Judge Dowling in the Tombs Police Court yester- day, and asked for a warrant for the arrest of Otis Scanlan, keeper of a faro bank at 653 Broadway. Mr. Robb said that he had been induced by some man he met in a hotel on Broadway to go into this Place on the 18th of last December; that he played there on that night and lost $330, He after- wards made two successive visits to Mr. Scanlan’s place of business amd lost about nine hundred dollars in gold, About @ month ago he met @ gentleman in the Bowery to whom he related his experience and this man told him that the place kept by Scanlan was notorious and was what was called a “skin” game. granted a warrant for the arrest of Scanlan, and it was immediately placed in the hands of Sergeant Quinn. The Sergeant proceeded at once to find his man, and captured him tn his banking house on Broadway about one o'clock in the afternoon, but found nothing there but a black and red table cover to give any evidence of any game having been in progress. Scanlan was produced In Court before Judge Dowling about two o’clock in the afternoon. He is a very good looking young man, of afresh blonde complexion, and dresses respect- ably rather than flashy;,in tact, his general appear- ance belies his profession, He was very indignant at elie arrested, and, appealing to the Judge, said:— “This man (pointing to Robb) came into my place and lost his money on the ‘square.’ Since then I’ve been bothered a week by a@ little Sheeny, who wants me to settle. He says he comes from Judge Geodlett’s office, and calls himself a detec- tive. First he wanted $300; then he was willing to take $25 or anything he could get, I settled the thing with @ man myself some time ago, and I thought it was all night.’? Judge Dewling—Weli, sir, 1 have nothing to do with that. This gentleman makes his complaint here against you, and J will hold yeu under $2,500 bail toanswer. But as there have been so many of these cases brought before me which have been | privately settled and never prosecuted I will hold the complainant under $1,000 bail to SEpear at the _ time required or commit him to the House of De- tention, At this stage ofthe proceedings Mr. Rebb was somewhat aumbfounded, and said he was perfectly willing to lose his money, and had been led into rosecuting the case by his friends, and those riends dia not come forward now to bail him. Colonel Spencer, in “fatigue,” came rushing into the court rooin just as the clock marked three and the Court was about to close. He appeared for the prisoner and asked Judge Dowling fer an examina- tion at once. His Honor courtgously but firmly re- fused, and postponed it until tits morning. John H. Hill, alias Frederick Harvey, was engaged by E. T. Christianson & Co., of 39 Vesey street, im- porters and dealers in teas, coffees, &c., as a drum- mer and outside salesman and collec He had been in their employ for five months. During that time Mr. Christianson alleges he has embezzled about $1,500, Miss Emma Almond, of Paterson, N. J., is one of the parties from whom he collected money. She made 2 formalcomplaint against him in behalf of Mr. Christianson in which she states she paid him $30 on account fer purchases from Christianson, and which money Mr. Christianson swears he has not received. There were several | other bills unaccounted for, but the parties who purchased and are supposed to have paid them were not present to substantiate the charge. The prisoner was held under $2,000 bail to answer, JEFFERSON MARKET POLICE COURT. Stealing G Fixtures.

The Extra Strect Cleaning. The adjourned inquiry as to the claim of J. L. Brown for $86,000 for extra street cleaning during the months of July, August«and September, 1871, was resumed yesterday morning, in the Comp- troller’s office, before the Cemptroller, Mr, J. L. Strahan, counsel to the Board of Audit, and Mr. West, counsel fer Mr. Brown. Several witnesses were examined on the part of Mr. Brown to show that the streets were thoroughly cleaned accord- ing to the requirements of the Board of Health, Mr. Efler, map clerk to Mr. Brown, testified at some length as to his pointing out on the maps submitted as evidence on the part of Mr. Brown, the streets that were cleaned, Mr. Robert F, Hatfleld, one of the examiners of the Finance Department, stated that he had examined and compared the maps in ques- tion with the city map of the work dome in July and part of August. For the month of July there ‘was reqaired a cleaning of 822.68 miles; according to Mr, Brown’s maps there was only cleaned 746.15, For the first half of August. there was required for extra cleaning: 404.28 miles; accerding te these maps there was only cleaned 198.95 miles. After this evidence Mr. West asked for an ad- journment’ toenable Mr. Brown’s map clerk and other employés to examine the maps and returns. ‘This was granted on the condition that Mr. Yelver- ton and Mr. Hatfleld were present when the exa- mination was made, This was ultimately agreed to, and Mr, West is to present the result of the exam- ination to-day (Saturday) at the meeting .o! the Board of Audit, The Salt and Fresh Water Committee.

If this plan were adopted there would be a sufficient supply of water for the city. He urged prompt action on the partof the Common Council, as be thought it likely there would be a decrease in the present supply. After the hearing of this testimony the commit- the adjourned. The Mayor's Office. Mayor Havemeyer was waited upon yesterday by a delegation of the People’s Municipal Association of this city, and tendered a copy of resolutions adopted at a recent meeting asking that the Legis- lature insert a clause in the charter giving the Mayor the power of making five nominations for a head of department, and if the Board of Aldermen tail to confirm either of said nominations then the Mayor is to make one nomination, which shall be absolute. Mayor Havemeyer thanked the gentle- men, and sald he had been waited upon on Thurs- day by @ similar delegation, and he was about pre- paring a letter to that delegation and the auswer to them would equally apply to this delegation. The gentiemer then withdrew. r The Ninth Ward Council of Political Reform. Mayor Havemeyer has addressed the following letter to the Committee of the Ninth Ward Council of Political Retorm :— EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, CrTy HALL, NEW YORK, March 7, 1873. To Messrs. W. P. BENSEL, SAMUEL HALL, Davip M. EARL, JOHN H, SEAMAN and FRANCIS THURBER: GENTLE! i—It_gives me great pleasure to meet you, and to thank you for the flattering reference ou,have made to myself in the resolutions of the inth Ward Council of Political Reform now sub- mitted to me. ‘The people whom you represent seem to be alive to the importance ol the present crisis in our city affairs, and rightly judge that some remedy should be provided by the present Legislature for the im- provement of our condition. This feeling is not confined solely to your constituency, but pervades the whole community outside of the cliques and clans connected with the frauds of the past and those which claim to control the present dominant party to extend these frauds into the future. Now, gentlemen of the committee, having for a long time past voted for its candidates, there isno man in this community who desires the continued success of the repubiican party more than myselt,or who would more deeply regret the adoption of any measure calculated to impair its influence and defeat the objects which 1t was expected to accomplish. But I confess to a fear that if the charter which the Assembiy has passed should become a law it will disappoint the expectations of the public, and that the republican party will be held responsible for it, Asi read that charter it simply gives to a few unprincipled politicians the power to farm out the right to impose and collect taxes from our citizens without limit and without epee by giving the right of fixing salaries and controlling jobs to those who bid high enough to ebtain them, You are aware of the obloquy which attached to the name of the “publican” party which exisited in the early days of Caristianity, when Judea was under Roman rule, and who were invested with sunilar fanctions, But I can assure you that if the re-publican party ehall so far imitate that example as to invest any coterie with the power by such legislation as it mey dictate to impose taxes upon the people, by authorizing such extravagant ex- penditures in jobs and salaries, a8 to rob them of their hard carnings in the future in the same man- ner as has been done in the past, and disappoint the people in their present expectations Of relief by its elevation to power, the days of that party will soon be numbered and its memory be exe- crated by every honest memoper ot Lage Hoa) all time to come. vey respecttully, nee obedicat servant, ILLIAM F, HAVEMEYER.

Comptroller Green has appointed a meeting of the Board of Apportionment for Tuesday next, March 1f, 1873, for the purpose of authorizing the issue of bonds and stock to pay the awards in the matter of “Broadway widening and straighten- ing.” NEWARK’S CHARTER AMENDMENT SIGNED BY THE GOVERNOR. The amendment to the Newark charter which authorizes the issuance by the Common Council of $1,500,000 worth of city bonds, the appointment of City Auditor instead of his election, as of old, and the creation of a new office, that of Finance Comptroller, has been signed by Governor Parker, and is now a law. Mayor Ricord has been officially apprised of the Governor's action, The bill had the sanction of men recognized as leaders in both arties, Buch as Beach, Vanderpool, John Me- regor, Daniel Dodd and J. H. Halsey, If there was really any very great popular ‘dislike to the bill it certaimly failed assuming any formidabie shape in the way of spirited meetings and protests. To THE EDITOR oF THE HERALD:— Although the news brought by the cable of the separation of the Princess Louise from her hus- band the Marquis of Lorne is startling, it can scarcely be called, to those who are acquainted with the cancan of London society, entirely unex- pected. The gushing, sentimental nonsense about a love match and the setting aside of courtly con- ventionality and etiquette in order that a Queen’s daughter might mary a man of her choice, which formed so fertile a theme for certain writers at the time of the wedding, was ridiculed by those. who happened to know (hat the Princess Louise’s*affec- tions had been tor some time fixed upon an English entleman (some say a clergyman of the Estab- lished Church) considerably inierior to Lord Lorne in social position, and 80D Wasin reality merely accepted as a pis aller. ‘That an actual separation has taken place between ) the two parties may reasonably be doubted, pat that the royal couple have “agreed to difter’® for some time past has long been matter of notoriety in London lashionabie circies, While upon this subject we may remark that the Spirit—not, perbaps, of disloyalty, but of @ dispo- sition to ridicule and gird at the doings of the Court—which prevailed so ex ago, and was opportunely ch | the Prince of Wai up. The most re’ | feeling has been nan ifesta tit ue jon in “Beeton’s Christmas Annual” of a poem called ‘The Coming K.” This is @ feriee of parodies of Tennyson's “Idyls of the King,” and in it the follies of the Fogian Court, and 4)ly the gallantries and pec- cadilloes of the Prince of Wales, are lashed with an unsparing band, Immediately after its publication an attempt was made to suppress it, and a large edition was bought up for that purpose, but some copies have found their Way over here, Not merely is the verse spirited and the imitation of the Laureate’s style excellent, but the portraits with of this which the little brochure is jiustrated are capital PF KGMOBHC "EXER, that the Duke of Argyle’s | CUSTOM HOUSE AFFAIRS. The New Order for Clearing Decks of Goods While Vessels Are Unloading— The Responsibility of the Collector— Importers Must Be Protected—So Must the Government—Seizure of Smuggled Goods—Arrest of a Female Contra- bandist. In relation to the order issued by the Acting Surveyor of Customs, Mr, James L, Benedict, in- structing all his inspectors who are assigned to discharge steamships to enforce the regulations to clear docks while vessels are unloading, &c., and which appeared in yesterday’s HERALD, a few facts have since been ascertained which will not prove altogether uninteresting, at least as far as the general public is concerned. ‘ According to an act of Congress passed March 2, 1799, the Collector is compelled ‘to assume charge of goods remaining on‘ board of ship five days or more,” which act was amended March KS 1854, providing that ‘whenever merchandise shall hereafter be imported into any port of the United States from any foreign country in vessels propelled in whole or im part by steam or other- wise, and it shall appear by the bills of lading that the merchandise so imported is to be delivered, &c., it shall be lawful for the Collector of such port to take possession of such merchan- cite and deposit the same in any bonded ware- Ouse, The Collector of the Port is responsible for two classes of goeds—first, those designed for the pub- lic store; next, those for the general order ware- houses, If merchants fail to pay the duty on their importations, and thus miss taking their entries free, by the time the vessel arrives, they must be content to allow their wares to f°, into “general orders.” Tae goods for the public store must go there whether or no, inasmuch ag the law requires samples to be sent to the Appraiser for examina- tion and appraisement, after which the same are delivered on the order of the importer to any one calling for the same, provided the duties have been regularly paid, The designatien of general order warehouses where Imports are to be stored is not made by the Collector, but by the steamship com- panies; hence there can be no favoritism shown in selecting any particular warehouse to please the owner thereof, ‘The order referred to says:— Complaints having beem frequently made to the Col- lector that the regulations in relation to clearing docks of public store and general order merchandise are dis- rded, Inspectors are notified that said regulations must be enforced. and if any stevedore, dock clerk or Custom House cartman obsiructs or hinders them in any- wise in the performance of this duty they report the facts promptly to the Surveyor. The following are the regulations referred to:— 10, The carts, trucks or lighters designated by the im- Porters must be at the vessel ready to take the merchan- dise when the Inspector is ready to send it; otherwise the Inspector, after waiting a reasonable time, will send the merchandise to the warehouse by any bonded cart, dray or lighter available for the work. 11 Merchandise must be removed from tbe dock as follows:—First—Public. store goods. —Second—General order goods, | Third—Warehouse goods, except where stamped for importers’ car 1 red of all such merchandise be- The dock must be cle: fore the closing of the store and warehouse. ‘The Collector notifies Inspectors assigned to steamships that he will not allow them to shift the responsibility of disregarding his regulations upon any dock clerk, Cus- tom House cartman or other person, but that he will hold the Inspector personally responsible for the enforcement of the regulation aforesaid. This order is not relished by the majority of the Inspectors, as it interferes somewhat with certain littie dowceurs they occasionally receive to keep packages of merchandise pack a few hours, so as mot to be taken to the warehouse that day. Merchants, after entering their geods, are anxious to have the “ordered packages” sent at once to the public store, as they are prohibited by their bond irom opening or disposing thereof until the ex- amined parcel has been reperted upon by the Ap- praiser. The goods, a8 soon as passed by the In- Spector om the dock, Instead of being placed in a pile by themselves In order that the cartman can take them instantly to the store, have repeatedly become mixed up with duty paid and iree mer. chandise in an inextricable contusion, In nume- rous instances merchants have complained that their cases or bales have remained thus for two weeks and more. ‘The prompt delivery of imports is everything to the importer, for these very goods may have been sold to arrive. Collector Arthur is determined that the importers shall receive every facility to transact their .business with precision and de- Spatch, even if 1b should cause the removal of all his officers, So far the order seems to take well, and on one of the docks there was not a package remaining at any time during the day, the cartmer carrying away the same as fast as unloaded. Late in the afternoon several Custom House In- spectors seized a quantity of silks and kid gioves, valued at about six thousand dollars, on board of the Hamburg steamship Frisia, which arrived yes- terday. The officers received the information that the contraband goods were on board, and on the arrival of the vessel had no dificulty in capturing the smuggled wares. As no one claimed the pack- ages, no arrests were made, and the hapless owner can cousole himself that, although ‘his wealth is gone,” yet his liberty remains. Not so lucky, how- ever, Was @ lady passenger who arrived here last Wednesday, She attempted to introduce about twenty-five hundred dollars’ worth of Honiton, point d’appiique, thread and other laces without contrib- uting the necessary moiety towards paying Uncle Sam’s ruuning expenses and liquidating the national debt. The penalty of the law in such cases which is meted out to offenders, not for smuggling, bat for being caught at it—i.e., an arrest and lodgment im Warden Tracy’s Hotel— was the portion ef this female contrabandist, where se still linger INTEMPERANCE AND DEATH.

On roceeding to hold an inquest over the body the Coroner was interrupted by Rosanna Martin, also a confirmed inebriate, liVing in an adjoining room, who insisted she saw Margaret Conlahan, the widow, “going throngh” the pockets of her husband as he lay on the fleor, after which she grasped him by the throat an choked him, Rosanna was sent to the station house and there repeating the statement was sent to the House of Detention with Mrs, Conlahan, to await the result of an investigation, There were no finger marks about Coniahan’s neck, and Deputy Coroner Leo was of the opinion that death resulted from intemperance; but to place the matter beyond doubt the body was sent to the Morgue tor post- mortem examination by Dr. Leo, NEW YORK COLLEGE OF DENTISTRY.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— Many of your readers living near the Park and above Fifty-ninth street wish you to make public an imposition to which they are subjected by the Fourth Avenue Railroad Company. The terminus of the through line of this company is at Eighty- sixth street, a shorter distance from the City Hall than the route efany other car company advert! ing to carry their passengers “through.” For tl shortest distance their charge for fare is eight cents, as against six collected by the Second and Third Avenue Companies for the conveyance of passengers about a mile further, We make ne com- plaint of the additional fare charged nor of the short distance we are enabled te ride in return for the same ; but, im consideration of both, we think some effort should be made to turnish a suficieat num- ber of cars to seat passengers who take them oaly a few blocks from their starting point. When this through line of the Fourth Avenue Company was extended from Forty-second street about two years ago, the namber of cars vouchsafed supplied in a measure Bo eoan ars for the passengers; but the compaiy appears to have made no accoun of the great increase of bg ey along the east- erly side of the Park, and the number of though cars is now quite insufficient to carry the passengers compelied to depend upon this one line alone for transportation. As an instance I would mention the fact that the writer, in common with many residents at and near Seventieth street, and taking the cars there, almost within sight of the terminus, find them already so overcrowded that for months back he has been forced to ride standing to the City Hall, unless he be so fortunate as to secure the seat of a passenger getting out before that point is reached. Individually he feels this the more because he THE SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION. _—_———— Meeting of Southern Business Men at the Grand Central Last Night—Address by Ex-Governor Lubbock, of Texas. The Southern Association of New York met last night at the Granda Central Hotel, parlor 217. ‘There was a large attendance, including the most Prominent business men from the South remding in this city. Mr. P, W.L. Burbank presided, and Mr. H. R. Dixon acted as secretary. The secretary read the minutes of the last meeting and the con- stitution of the Association. ‘The chairman then introduced ex-Governor LuB- HOCK, of Texas, who addressed the meeting. He said that an association composed of so many men ot high respectability could certainly do a great deal of He could understand that their friends m the South, while they appreciated their business ente » could also appre- clate their hospitality and kindly. socia- bility. It woul be necessar; for ‘them to band themselves as brothers. The Speaker re- ferred to the advantage to be derived from found- ing @ good mercantile linrary, As he understood it, this Association embraced those.connected with the Sout je. The Southern States would utkern trad ultimately succeed in receiving immigration and would once more retrieve the fortunes they had enjoyed. Some ofthe States dia not make very bi strides towards wealth and great prosperity, but his State of trade, re: (Texas) was indeed becoming an empire Georgia, Alabama and others were alse tt States; but the trade of all the Southern 8 was worthy of thtir attention. He hoped this Association would succeed in attaining the great objectit aimed at. (Appianse.) Colone] J. H. Hagt, of Georgia, then explained the object of the Association, He said they were social, benevolent and, indeed, national. The war was a thing ofthe past. It was not his fault that they could not kill all the “Yanks.” He tried hard enough for four years, and others had tried it, too, The only trouble was there had not been enough of them. (Laughter.) The want of character was the only thing which debarred anybody from this Association. Their object was to invite all gentle- men connected .with the Southern trade to join them, no matter whether they were born in Maine or Nova Scotia, Socially the Southern men in New York were a waif here, and in order to be success- fui they must be true to themselves. (Applause.) The Secretary read the report of the Executive Committee, proposing a large number of new Inem- bers—some sixty or seventy. The report was ap- proved, and the election of other new members pro-: ceeded with. Colonel HaRT moved to appoint a committee of three which shall select suitable rooms or a build- ing for an elegant club house. .This was the first important step that was necessary. The motion was carried, and the meeting then adjourned. The committee is composed of Messrs. i a Francis, Colonel B. N, True and Colonel J. H. fart MARRIAGES AND DEATHS. Married.
