——— “PREVARICATOR COLRAX. ‘Large Turnout of South Benders to Receive Him. ANOTHER SPEECH IN DEFENCE. Me Again Denies Having Received any Credit Mobilier Dividends from Ames—A Resolution of Confidence in His smiling Excellence. Sourn Benn, Ind,, March 8, 1873. Ex-Vice President Colfax arrived here at half- Past twelve o'clock to-day, and proceeded in a car- riage to the Court House followed by an escert con- wisting of carriages anc wagons as far as the eye ‘could reach, Hon, Wm, Miller, Mayor, delivered an address of ‘welcome. Mr. Colfax then responded as follows :— Nerennors axp Frrexns—My heart wonW! we eidiind callous indeed, as itis not, it it dad net throb. ‘ore quickly and happily at such & welcome home us his one with which I um Honored, and the gratitude tor which it would take a lilentme ‘wo exhibit here.

The dixclosare of the sacred confidence of the dead only gave fresh opportunities for cavil and falsification, The ies Mony of my step-tather and sister, unimpeachable as you here “so well knvw them to be, was de- Rounced as unworthy of belict. These enemies were determined on heving their victim, but conscious ef my entire innocence of this cruel charge, and coutident that He who knoweth all things will, in His own good time, make that innocence manifest to ull, 1 have stood un: moved amidst this storm of vilification and injustice, Willing to bide my time for a complete vindication, which know is so certiin lo come. Let me read, now, from the Chicago Zncer-Ocean' of September 26, 1873, the foliow- ing extract trom a specch 1 delivered there the previous day. It was taade, you will remember, in reply to the +charge that Lavas or TE Tw ONE, who sold out to Credit Mobi ‘who had been bribed by gitts dividends had been paid and for tion had been enacted. Never having in my lite a dollar of stock of any kind hat I did not pay for, C claim the right to purchase stocla in Credit Mobiliér, or Credit Immobilier, if there is one; nor do I know of any law prohibiting it. Do Inced to add that neither Oakes Ames nor apy other pereon to give me one share or twenty shares in Credit Mobilier or nd that, untortunately, I have Rever seen or received the value Of a farthing out of the ZO per cent dividends or the 800 per cent dividends in cash, stock or bonds you have read #bout the past month, Ror 100 per cent, nor’ the tenth ef one per cent? I have said that if twenty shares or it could be purchased at par witheut buying into a prospective lawsuit it would be a Rood investment tf as valuable a stock as represented, but Rever having been plaintitt nor deiendaatin a court of dustice I wantno stock at any price with a lawsuit on top Although I thus publicly claimed the right to purchase this very stock, and avowed frankly my willingness to buy, own and hold twenty shares if T could do it without buying intoa lawsuit, and thus accepted all the odium Encre could attach to purchasing it, as then understood it, Ihave been charged with prevaricution because 1 did not go on and state that I had withdrawn before an incomplete contract to buy twenty sh what I had paid on account. If denial or explanation of an entirely different c that I was answering would be required of 1 ould. certainly have done so, ag it would have strengthened, in- stead of weakening, What I was stating; but that I could Not foresee. RERCHER QUOTED. An eminent divine once said rather irrewerently, “If a man’s foresight were only as good as his hindsight he would be but little lower than the angels;” and my mode of speaking has always been to discuss and explain pend- ing issues, and not discass or explaim those thal were not pending.’ But let us test this by illustration, method which often brings out disputed points more witidly than a! ment. Suppose any one of you had been clarged with having been given shares in @ woollen tactory; that these shares you had received enormous dividend ‘and that as payment for these gifts and dividends you ha corruptly in carrying through legisiation in, re: rt to duties on wool. Would you nat regard it AasuMcient answer to stich charzes to tell, the public APOSTLES. 090 apiece, and lock on Which enormous which certain legisla- any other railroad stock, ry I your lie publicly advocating a real eged to have been carried by corrup- tion? Besides this their enactment had been a year be- fore these alleged gilts; tha! you had never owned any stock in woollen factories or aiyth se that you had not paid for; that your shares Lad never been given y: and that you had never received any such dividen Now, if you had volantarily withdrawi as I had, at pecu- ry loss over four years before, trom an agreement to buy such stock in a Woollen factory, you would regard what I have supposed ay a sufficient refutation of the charge that you had been BKIBED and enormons dividen frank statement that y GIFTS OF STOCK But if you added to all this the would be willing to buy this very factory stock at par, and to hold it af it would not involve you in litigation, would you not think your an- swer to be full and thorough on every practical poimt that the wanton calumny required you to state? No one could have been misled by my speech in the vital point that though NO SUCH STOCK WAS EVER GIVEN TO MR I publicly avowed my willingness to bear all reproach that could attach an Investment of my money in it at par, as I then understood it; but I do not Imtend to rest my argument on this point here. I call my enemies a itnesses. The New Yor! i¢ of September 26 pub- lished a telegraphic extract of this speech, with the fol- Jowing heading. showing that it fully understood my denial was to the charge of having had stock given to me:—"ide never received a share in Credit Mobilier that he did not pay for.”” It was eminently fitting that this name paper should, on Fy 24 print literally a que: Sation from the speech with the essential word “give” Jett out, and then basely repeated the charge of my un- fulness on the quotation jthad thus altered and falsified. (Mr. Colfax here extiblted the paper.) ‘The Chicago Tribune, also, which has almost daily assailed me the past Winter for alleged prevarication in the speech, did not misunderstand it. Atthe time it declared editorially (September 2%), in commenting on my eech, “Mr Coliax claims the right to pur- chase whatever stock he thinks proper, even when offered him at PAt, and when accrued dividends are more than equal to its value.” id, September 28, the nextday, it said nd 1 quote ‘its insinuation, aleo, although my p $53 disproves that part of Ht, as foliows:—"MF.

HOAX AMES TO HAVE A RECEPTION, Boston, Mass., March 8, 1873, Acomplimentary reception will be given Oakes Ames by his fellow citizens of North Easton on Thursday evening next. THE COURTS. Lape S Snage Fancher, at Supreme Court, Chambers, yes- terday confirmed the report of the Commissioners of Awards and Assessments in the matter of the extension of Madison avenue from 124 street to the Harlem River. The report makes out the total awards $703,000, one-half of which is assessed against the city and the other half against private property owners, Charles Sennert, who had been indicted in the United States Circuit Court for passing $20 counter- feit notes, was arrested yesterday on a bench war- rant, and committed in default of bail. Reference ordered to try the whole issue, Switt vs. Brown.—Judgment granted, Freur vs, Frear.—Relerence ordered, ‘g@ for Pay. Before Judge Barbour. Some parties having claims against the city ‘which the Comptroller refuses to pay do not, it seems, invoke the aid of a mandamus to compel the latter oficial to liquidate the indebtedness, bus, bring a suit directly against the city. Bernard Garvey, an oMcer of the Superior Court, a.nd Patrick J. Hart, an efMicer of the Common Peas, brought suits in this Court to recover arreay ages of ry claimed to be due them, The evidence showed their Se gpene pe rforta- ance. of the duties appertaining to such appointments, The defence was that thre Comp- troller notated them that their services were no longer required, and that such notification was made pursuant to authority conferred on his in the tax levy of 1870, giving him power of appoint- ment and remoyal of such oficers, The; answer to this was that the apoolunmen ts were made pur- suant to the Code of Procedure of 1849, conferring this power on Vhe Coarts themsetyes, and con- firmed by the amende@ constitution, which, it was olaimed, no act of the Legislature oould take away. A verdict was rendered im cach cage to the fall amount of the claim. SUPERIOR ‘COURT—SPECIAL TERM. Decisions. By Judge Van Vorst.

SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS. Madison Avenue Extension—Submission of the Commissioner’s Report for Con- firmation—Its Confirmation by Judge Fancher—Amount of the Awards and Assessments. Before Judge Fancher. At length, it would seem, that a finality has been reached in the matter ofthe Madisonavenue exten- the eyelids in the courts for the past four years. The avenue was ordered, some time previous to this, to be opened from 124th street to Harlem River, and, this matter settied, Messrs. Gratz Nathan, Charles missioners of Assessments and Awards, T Commissioners have finally completed their report, and the same was duly presented yesterday for contirmation before Judge Fancher, at Supreme Court, Chambers, As it was known that the report would be breught up for judicial action, there a large attendance in the court room of property owners and others interested in the matter, Mr. Andrews, Assistant Corporation Counsel, moved that the report be confirmed. He spoke of the intelligence of the Commission and the time and care they had given to its De eed and insisted that its confirmation would accord with the general wishes of nearly all tne private property owners, as weil as the city, interested in | the result. According to the repprt, the amount | of awards is $703,000, one-half of which is assessed against the city and the other half upon the owners of preperty benelited by the improvement. Alter cutting down the surveyor’s bill trom $13,000 to $7,000, Mr. Williams desired delay in the matter, urging that there was a question of grave | doubt as to the equitability and legality of the | awards and assessments, He insisted that the rinciple of the assessment required careful exam- ination, He stated that he represented parties owning property between 120th and 124th streets, who kad been assessed for the opening of the ave: nue above and below those streets, They were, he said, between two millstones and ground’ to powder, He had only been retained in the case | the evening previously, and hence had not had time to give the subject that examination its merits de- mauded. Mr. John G. Shaw, who said that he represented Yarious property owners, asked an immediate con- firmation of the report. He insisted that the ques- tion of amounts of awards and assessments had been emtrusted to the Commissioners; that they had fulfilied their duties, and that their action in this regard was not @ subject for the reviewal of the Court, Mr. Abram R. Lawrence said fhat he represented @ large nuinber of the property owners, all of whom Were anxious to have the report confirmed, He considered the request to adjourn the matter, as made under the circumstances, was supremely ridiculeus, a8 it had been known since the 28th of last November that the report was to be presented. If parties had delayed till now to procure counsel that was no reason why the whole matter should be delayed, i Mr. William B, Asten, a property owner, stated that nearly all the property ewners, as far as he knew, were anxious to have the vete confirmed as | presented. fe protested against any delay, as the value of the property Was greatly atfected thereby, and as no one could either sell or buy. After some further remarks the Judge ordered the report to be confirmed, Decisions. By Judge Harden.

Robbed While Sleeping Behind His Own Stove—Two Men Arrested on Suspicion of Being Connected with a Cute Phila- delphia Burglary. Y Rudeiph Bergman keeps 4 hotel and restaurant at 142 West street. On the night of the 15th of February one of his lodgers, named Ferdinand Hurschel, came in and found Rudolph dezing be- hind the stove. It is alleged by Bergman that Hurschel bade him good might and went up stairs: as if he were going to retire for the night. Shortly afterwards he (Bergman) found hiswatch gone, and also $6 stolen from the drawer. As Hurschel was seen ‘by Mrs. Bergman to re-enter the bar- room after he was supposed to have retired, it was thought that he had robbed Bergman while he was dozing behind the stove. On the morn- ing of the 16th Hurschel Jeit Bergman's house, and he was bot seen until yesterday, when he was arrested, When he was “ist Te betore Judge ee the Judge looked at him eharply and said :— “I thought you had given up this thing %”’ “Ldon’t know what you mean, your Honor,” an- swered the prisoner.

On this evidence the oticer worked up the case. He ascertained that Le- and, Allen & Bates, of 184 Church street, were the agents of the mill in New York. The firm informed the officer that they had sent a line of the goeds to their Philadelnhia house, who in turn had sold them to Messrs, Feiweil Brothers & Co., of that city, om the 10th of February. Messrs, Folwell & Co.’s store was burglarieusly entered some time subsequently, and Fi0,000 worth of property car- ried off, among the rest a large lot of caasimeres, of which the property found upen the prisoners Was supposed to be a part. ige Dowling, on this evidence, remanded the prisoners, and di- rected Officer Bavendam to send to Philadelphia for further evidence.

Alderman RICHARDSON was of the opiaion that ‘the waste time of the firemen might be employed to advantage. The men might work at some trade ‘or calling, and then attena to fires as they occur. He thought the drivers might be employed at the fire. He considered the report of the Fire Com- missioners rather a strange document—especially the portion concerfing the msuramce companies, Alderman DooG.as wondered if it had not been manipulated by the insurance agents. alderman RICHARDSON was opposed to doing any- ‘thing which would tend to increase the rate of taxation, He would appropriate $10,000 for the increase of the telegraphic facilities, but thought it would be better to defer even this until next year. They might have two additional engines on reserve, which would make eightcen in all. But he questioned the propriety of putting this in the deficiency bill. Atter some further discussion Alderman Rivhard- son moved that the committee report in favor of raisit he deficiency bill $10,000 for increased fa- cilities for the present system ef fire alarms, $10,000 for additional hydrants and $9,000 for two More engines, ‘This was carried. ‘The further consideration of merersing the com- anies Was, On motion, postponed for one week. ‘he committee then adjourned, SHIPPING NEWS.

Sm Parrician (Br), Wilson, from San Franeiseo for Cork Wefore reported), sailed from the former ort Feb 27, at 2 PM, and pissed the Honds at 8:10 PM, the wind being trom the NW. At4:30 PM Mr Diggs, the pliot. being alisfied that the ship had » good offing, signalled the boat (the J C Cousins), and bid the ship adieu. She had cleared the onteredge of the bar, the Heads bearing E Pree Bote, Pilot had scarcely pulled away in his lighter when Capt Wilson and his chief mate, Mr Gaster, went below and spread their charts on the cabin table figure out the course. The second mate had gone for- ward ty fill away om the head yards, and the men sang cheerily as they tugged at the braces. The sea was quite calm, but there was a heavy ground swell running. Just as the foreyards were braced around there came a crash that seemed to shiver the stout hull from deck to keelson, and a ery of alarm brought Capt Wilson and his first om: cer to the deck. The pumps were set at work imme: ately and the men worked fully, but the water was found to be5 feet deep in less than’ 3 minutes after the ship struck, which was at 4:34PM. The second sounding of the pomp, taken 3 minutes later, showed that there ‘was 7 feet of water in the hold, and, of course, no pumps could overcome that. Almost immediately after the ship struck poe of wood came up, either from the ship her- self or from the sunken wreck ‘on which she is supposed to have struck. Certainly there was deep water all along where the pilot left her, and nothi: 1g but a sunken wreck could have come in contact with her. The ship was now headed for port, and signals of distress were made to the ot boat, when Capt Dig # put down his helm and made for the doomed vessel, which was firing rockets and send- ing up blue hghts. It'being evident that she must sink, the boats were lowered away ready for emergency, there being an officer ana four hands in each. The ill: fated ship was then headed tor the North Head, and was run Ashore om the Potato Patch or Four Fathom Bank, With 16 teet of water in her. The pilot boat now came up and Capt Diggs advised all ‘hands to leave for safety, s0 thev came on board the J © Cousins, So sudden was their departure that the officers and men only saved the clothes in which they stood. One boat was stove in transferring the shipwrecked men to the pilot boat, but no lives were lost. Sanur Sinenta (Br), Inglis, at San Francisco 27th ult from Passaroeang, on Feb 22 to 2th had a very severe gale from N to W, with a fearful cross-sea: shipned quantities of water, broke spars, &c, adrift from lashings Sir Panama, Borstel, trom San Francisco for Bristol, F, before reported at St Thomas in distress. would soon be ready for sea.

She had a severe passage, duting which her mainboom was carried away, and split sails. Sone Istanp Bette, trom Elizabethport for Providence, with coal, struck a rock off Ward's Island 7th inst, and commenced to leak so badly that the crew were com- plied to run her ashore on the island, where she now lies, with her decks under water.
