In the United States Circuit Court yesterday the pase of Carl Vogt was up for argument before Judge Blatchford on writs of habeas corpus and certiorari. Vogt is claimed to be a Prussian subject. It is oharged against him that ho is gutity of the ‘offences of murder, robbery and arson at Brussels, in the Kingdom of Belgium, and it is held by the Prussian government, who have made a demand wpon the United States for his extradition, that their laws give them jurisdiction ever crimes com- mitted by lrussian subjects in foreign territories. This being so, Prussia, if it can get hold of Vogt, May try bim for the alleged murder the same as if It Was perpetrated on Prussiam soil; while, on the other hand, counsel for the accused maintains that it would be straining the treaty tec far to comply ‘with this demand of the German government. The question is on extremely important one, ani has now been raised for the first time in this country. Judge Blatchford will render his decision in the Course of the ensuing week. Jacob 0. Smith, who had carried on the business ‘of a wholesale boot and shoe dealer in this city, Was charged with acts of alleged traudulant bank- Tuptoy, He left for Chicago some time since, and ‘was brought back yesterday by Deputy Marshal Purvis, Defendant was held for trial. The case of George McDonnell, one of the alloged forgers upon the Bank of England, had been set down for continued examination yesterday before Commuasioner Gutman, but it was adjourned till the 24th inst, on the application of counsel for the Qefendant. Counsel for the British government Mtate that they have received from London several depositions of an important character, The con- tents of these depositions will not be made public ‘until tho tine comes for reading them in evidence before the Commissioner, The two remzining jurors required for the trial ef Goorge SheMin, who was brought to trial on Tuesday in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, before Judge Brady, on a charge of murdering his wife, was obtained yesterday morning from the extra . panel summoned for that purpose. When the Court had adjourned ali the testimony for the prosecution had been submitted, The case for the defence will be opened this morning, and it is the intention to Onish the trial to-day i possible. 4 A trial yesterday before Judge Davis, holding Supreme Court Circuit, revived patniul reminis- ‘vences of the riots in this city in July, 1663. A poor #hoemaker, who was robbed by a gang of the rioters of some money and a portion of his stock in trade, obtained a verdict against the city indemnl- fying him for his losses, In the Superior Court, yesterday, before Judge Freedman, a verdict of $10,000 was obtained against the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company eon a life insurance policy, The deiendants were willing to have a judgment entered for the amount ef the policy, but the plaintiff wanted more, and got it in the shape of costs and an extra allowance. Considerable time was occupied yesterday in Supreme Court Chambers, before Judge Fancher, discussing the question of granting a peremptory Mandamus against the Comptroller, directing him to pay M. Kazinski, interpreter of the Courts, an amount alleged to be due him upon the raising of his salary from $2,000 to $3,500 per annum. After hearing the argument the Court took the papers, reserving its decision. ‘The old suit of J. L. Brown for $86,000 for extra Btreet cleaning has been too often ventilated in the HERALD to have the facts forgotten. Ina re- cent suitit was shown that $70,000 was the most that could be rightfully claimed. Application was made to the Board of Andit to audit and allow the claim at this amount, which was refused, Ap- plication was accordingly made yesterday before Judge Fancher at Supreme Court Chambers fora peremptory writ against the Board, directing it to audit and allow the claim at the figures stated. This Judge Fancher would not do, but granted in its stead an alternativo writ, so that the case will come up soon again for reargument. THE WIFE MURDER TRIAL. Becond Day of the Trial of George Shef- fAin—All the Testimony Submitted for the Prosecution—The Details of tho . Horrible Crime—Probable Completion ‘of the Trial To-Day. » The second day of the trial of George Sheflin, on @ charge of having murdered his wife on the 15th of last January, in the rear tenement house 414 East Eleventh street, attracted yesterday, in the Court of Oyer ana Terminer, Judge Brady on the Dench, as latge and curiously eager a throng as on the opening day of the trial. Shefflin was brought Premptly into Court by the Deputy Sheriffs having him in charge, and presented the same stolid ap- poarance as on his first arraignment. He was given his seat as before behind his counsel, Mr. William F. Howe and Abe H. Hummel. District Attorney Phelps, who adds to his many other vir- tues that of punctuality, was early on hand, as likewise was his ablo and indefatigable assistant, Mr. Lyons, COMPLETING THE JURY. . The ten jurors previously obtained were also early io their places, It took nearly two hours to fill the two remaining vacancies in the jury box, owing to the fact of a large number of those exam- qned from the first panel being opposed te capital punishment. The jury as finally obtained consists of the following gentlemen :—Marvin Briggs, Rob ert F. Cooke, Francis A. Murdock, Hugh Corcoran, Henry 0. Wentworth, Frederick R. W. Hahn, Henry .V. Ryder, Emil F. Scharff, Henry Klenen, Joseph wing, John C. Valentine and Abraham W. Maas. Having reached this progressive stage in the case, though the time by no means dragged slowly, Owing to the varied amusing but searching inter- regatories of Mr. Howe, whose fund of wit seems to be as exhaustless as it is fresh and pungent, @ re- 9ea8 was taken foi hour, OPENING THE CASE. Hn the reassembling of the Court Mr. Pheips pened the case on behalt of the people. He said at the present was another instance of one of those shocking, sickening crimes thut so oiten al- flict thiscommunity. It was one of those crimes that could only be ham fae by a@ faithful execu- ti the law, Was a painful fact that human life was losing its sanctity in this commu- nity, A great responsibility rested on them as ju- rors. Ali that he could ask at their hands was an impartial verdict on the evidence, He then pro- ‘ceeded to recite the facts of the alleged murder. At the time of the killing the prisoner and hia wife wore living separate. He lived up town and she ‘was staying With his parents anda sigtor, They ved en tne ground floor ef the building rear ef 41¢ East Eleventh street. On the evening of the tragedy isoner had been to a meeting of plasterers, he being & piaatexer by occu ater that went to this house. All of them were addicted to the unfortunate habit of Grinking | to excess. The next morning the police were notified of the murder, and, on repairing to tne place, & scene o1 most disgusting brutality met thoir gaze. She lay ina peo! of blood, her body covered with bruises and her scalp nearly torn from her head. The prisoner had gone to residence and was there arrested, He could think of no excuse for so atrocious @ murder, though whatever excuse there might be they would hear from the prisoner and his able counsel. All he could ask was a con- actentious verdict at their hands, TESTIMONY FOR THE PROSECUTION, Terrence Riley was tne first witness called. He testified that he belonged to the Seventeenth po- lice precinct; on the 16th of January last he went to 414 East Eleventh street; two tenement houses are built on the lot, one in front and one in the rear; he went into the rear house, and in a rear room on the greund floor he found two wemen, both of whom were asleep; he woke them up and found they were intoxicated ; 1n the adjoining room was a woman Wing dead on a mattress; she was entirely nude; he found her scalp nearly removed; he saw the prisoner that night at the station house; the prisoner was in a cell. ‘To Mr, Howe—He had on a cap, and ShemMiin must have known that he was an officer; he told the prisoner that this was an unfortunate affair, and asked him how it happened, Q. Did you not teil him that it would be better for him to tell you all about the affair? A. Not to the best of my recollection. Mr. Howe objected to this line of evidence as in- competent, but the objection was overruled and exception taken. Witness pemataih ge the prisoner said he had boon drinking; Iasked him hew about the scalp, and he said he supposed he did it kicking; I asked about the knife, and he said he didn't know about that (common table knife shown) ; this knife I picked up on the premises; it was in the same con- ition as it is now, except that 1 think the spots on it were wet; 1 thought the spots were blood. Cross-examined by Mr, Howe—Q. Was the blood congealed? A. I don't know that congealed; I never studied the dictionary. . Was it transparent? A. Yes. . What do you mean by tramsparent? A. Clear. ir. Howe—Tnat's clear. (Laughter) Officer Fdward Kennedy testified that he, too, visited the house, and found the last witness there. He corroborated substantially the evidence of the last witnei ‘There was blood in the corners of the outer room, between the bedroom door amd the hall door, covering perhaps half a foot or more; in the inner room it was too dark to see anything until a matoh was struck; he found the knife on the table in the front room and gave it to the last witness, Considerable merriment was caused by the cross-examiuation of this witness, but no facts of special interest were elicited. Ferdinand Stunstrom, whe occupies a lager beer saloon in the front of the two buildings, testified that six months before the occur- rence Sheflin had moved into the rear build- ing, but had left it some two months before; his Wile also left, but came back; he saw Shefflin the morning aiter the killing, when Shefflin told him that he had been at a meeting last night and was downhearted about his father going to the hospital; he kad drank @ little more than he ought to, and when he came in the night before he qnarrelicd with his wife, and he “licked” her in the room and out of it; he lay down on the bed, and when ho woke ay found his wife lying dead with the quilt over her, Cross-examination—The prisoner's wife drank frequently ; she was drunk almost every day. Detective officer James P. Bennett testified that he arrested the prisoner gbout feur P, M, in the af ternoon of the 15th, At 1,845 Third avenue; he found him in a bed room on the third floor, asleep; he woke him up, told him to dress himself and go with him, as he was his prisoner; he took him to Police Headquarters; on the way the prisoner told him that he beat his wife because he saw a man coming out of her room,’but that he did not mean to kilt her, - Dr. Simeon M. Leo, Deputy Coroner, testified that he saw the body of the murdered woman at 414 East Eleventh street, and ibis Popo asisted at & post-mortem examination of the body; he found & contused wound over the left eye and bruises on the left arm, left shoulder and left hand knuckles, and the leit hip excoriated; the scalp had been loosened irom just above the eyebrows to near the centre of the back of the head; the cause oi death, in his opinion, was he:norrhage from the removal of the scalp, exposure and the bodily injuries to which she had been subjected, Cross-examination—Will you undertake to swear that she did not dic of delirtum tremens? A. I don’t think she did. $ Can you say she didnot? A. I cannot. . Can you fell whether either hemorrhage, bruises or exposure,might have caused her death? A. Either might. Q. Would not falling against the edge of a stove Temove the scalp? A. Kicking would. Were there any contused marks on the head ? No, sir; falling against a sharp substance might ¢ removed the scalp, Dr. Janeway, one of the physicians at Bellevue Hospital, testified that he made a post-mortem ex- amination of the body of the deceased ; be described the external injuries substantially as the previous witness; he described aneadditional wound on the abdomen and one on the lower part of the spinal column ; the internal organs were healthy, except the livor, which was iene fatty; he attributed death to hemorrhage and shock from her injuries, Cross-examination—Q, Were the arterics af- fected by the removal of the scalp, cut or torn? A. Thoy were severed. Q. Any Jayman could teil that. whether they were cut or torn? A. It was neither a clean cut or jagged. $ Q. Can you swear to the cause of her death? A, I cannot positively swear irom what I saw. Mr. Phelps announced that the above testimony closed the case for the prosecution. Judge Brady toll the jury that he should not keep them to- gether, but in allowing them to go to their homes cautioned them against taiking over the matter with any one or reading the accounts in the papers. The Court then adjourned till this morning, when Can you not tell Mr. Howe will open the case for the defence and | It is proposed to finish the | call bis witnesses. trial to-day if possible. THE VOGI EXIRADITION CASE. ew Argament Upon the Writs of Habcas Corpus and Certiorarl—Decision Re- served. In the United States Circuit Court yesterday Judge Blatchford sat to hear the arguments on the writs of habeas corpus and certiorari in the case of Carl Vogt, a Prussian subject, who is accused of having committed murder in Brussels, Belgium. The extradition of Vogt has been demanded by the German Empire, on the ground that a Prussian subject who commits a crime in a foreign territory is amenable to Prussian law. Mr. William F. Kintzing appeared as counsel for the prisoner and ex-Govyernor Salomons for the German Empire. The prisoner was in Court, attended by some friends, He isa man of rather good appearance, and seemed to be perfectly composed, ARGUMENT OF COUNSEL. Mr. Kintzing, after reading the complaint that had been made in this case, proceeded to discuss the question whether Prussia could follow this man, the prisoner, all over the world for an offence committed in the Kingdom of Belgium? If a Prus- sian subject to-day assaulted a citizen of the United States in the streets of New York, could it be pre- tended for a moment, that Prussia could bring that subject back and try him for that offence? Such a thing as that could not be permitted, tended that the treaty could only be taken as mean- ing that Prussia could only punish offenders for crimes committed within her tetritory, or territor- ial jurisdiction. If the contrary doctrine were to be upheld, the kingdom of Belgium would never seek a treaty with the United States; and there never could be friendly relations between the two governmen‘s, In an opinion delivered by Mr. Caleb Cushing when he was Attorney Gen- eral of the United States, he stated that no person could be extradited unless for acrime committed within the territorial jurisdiction of the demanding country, Counsel went on to argue that uniess the offence had been committed witain the territory of Prussia the prisoner could not be extradited under the treaty of 1852. Ex-Governer Salomons replied on the part of the German government. He said the case was a very important one, especially when the Court con- sidered the fact that the mandate of the President had been granted on the ba ode) of the German rovernment for the extradition of the prisoner, ‘hus it would be seen that the two contracting parties were united in their construction of the treaty. They came to the treaty, and must turn to the #igeet, meaning of the word “jurisdiction,” Ii the construction put by the learned counsel upon the word “jurisdiction” was the proper one, so as to prefix to that word ‘territorial jurisdiction,” it meant the same thing | as within the country or territory of either party. Let him see if those words were found in other ory ot the treaty, and if by the word ‘jurisdic. fon” there was meant “territorial jurisdiction.” The eee to the laced used these words:— “Within the territories and jurisdiction of either party;’’ “for the purpose of preventing the com- Missien of crimes within the territories and juris- diction of either party.’ It was te be ebserved that by using the two words, “territories” ant “Jurisdiction,” it was intended to give more power. to the Court than by the use of either of the words standing ‘alone, He thought it must be claimed for the treaty that every word used therein must be given effect to. When they came down to the construction of the treaty they must do 80 with the same exactitude ag they would do in regard to the constitution of the United States, in which every word was supposed to have significance and importance, If the con- struction put upon the treaty by the learned coun- sel on the other side was the proper one, then the use of the word “juriseiction” in the treaty was meaningless. Jurisdiction was the power and authorily to investigate and decide, and that was the general See tail he, to it by Webster, Judge Biatghiord said he found in the origigal He con- | NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, APRIL 17, 1873—QUADRUPLE SHEET. Gorman of the treaty the word “jurisdiction,” and shere was another word, a German word, also used to express something like the same thing. Mr. Salemons said tho word “jurisdiction” in the treaty meant the legal power or autherity to adju- dicate upon the crime without reference to terri- tory, so that ifthey gave to the word “jurisdic- tion” its large and proper meant they could see the reason why the words ‘for crimes committed within the jurisdiction of either pee. by men found within the territory and jurisdiotion of either party" were used. In other words, if a man com- mitted the crime of murder so that the Prussian Court should have jurisdiction ef the crime and he should flee to and be found in the territory of the United States, he shall be delivered up; and so, if a citizen of the United States sheuld semewhere commit a murder, for which by the laws of the United States he may be punished, and should seek an asylom in Prussia, it would be the duty of Prus- sia to deliver him up, But whenever any person accused of the crimes enumerated in the treaty committed a new crime in the territory to which he has fled, such person should not be delivered up, under the stipulation of the treaty, until he had been punished for that offence, It was a Well-known fact that the principles of Later- national law, a3 they existed all over the Con- tinent of Europe, enabled qorernnients there to unish cttizens not only for offences committed in, ut committed out of their territories, if the ties were brought back to the country to which heir allegiance belonged. The prisoner was a sub- ject of Prussia; he was brought up there, and had een in the army ; he went to Belgium, where he com- mitted the atrocious crimes of murder, rebbery and arson, From Belgium he fled te England, and from thence to the United States, where he was found. An apiicaiton was made to the government of the United States; but that governinent, acting to its traditional policy, did not surrender allege criminals except to countries with which it had entered into extradition treaties. Then an appli- cation was made to the Governor of the State for the extradition of the accused; but this request was net complied with, on the ground that to the general government alone belonged the power to extradite, Then the Prussian gevernment, being requested, he presumed, by the Belgian govern- ment, initiated proceedings, and asked the United States te hand the prisoner over to them for trial under the laws of Prussia in existence at the very time this treaty was made. It seemed to him, therefore, without any further reflection than reading the treaty, unless there was some authoritative exposition of the law contrary to what he had said, or evidently something in the treaty which, in his Hg aber would be contrary to public icy, that the con- struction of the treaty for which he had contended was the ene at least intended by one of the high contracting parties, and no deubt by both, when the treaty waS made. Each country would, of course, Interfere to punish for crime committed within tts territory. Under treaties made with Turkey, China and Japan, in 1844, jurisdiction over citizens of the United States, accused of crimes, had been ceded to those ceuntries. The United States had, by treaty and by law, provided for the unishment of crimes committed by citizens of the ie pied States within the jurisdiction of other coun- ries. The Court remarked that the Consul at Shanghae had hung several persons there for the commission of murder, Mr, Salomens remarked that even in treaties made with semi-parbarous natiens they had ob- tained the right to try their citizens for crimes committed there—for crimes committed within the territory of another sovereign, They had given to their Toproacn ea tiyeg resident in barbarous and non-civilized countries the absolute power of there trying citizens ef the Uniced States for crimes com- mitted in those countries, Alter referring at length to yarious authorities on international law, and especially to Whatton, it, Salomons concluded an elaberate argument by expressing a hope that the Court weuld feel bound to de‘iver such an opin- ion in this matter as would enable the proper au- thorities to send the prisoner back to answer for the desperate crime he had committea, The Court said as the question was an impertant one—he did not know that suci a point had been raised before—he would deliver an oral epinion in the caso about the middle of next week, as he should not have time te write one. He would notify counsel on both sides of the time when he would give his decision. BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. SUPREME COURT—CIRCUIT—PART 2. A Small Memento of the Big Riot. Before Judge Davis. Suits for damages received by citizens during the riots in this city in 1863 it was supposed had long ago reached their terminating point, A trial in this Court yesterday demonstrates, it appears, the erreneousness of this conclusion. Peter Sharf- fer, a shoemaker, sued the city to recover $92 and interest. In his testimony he stated that during the riots, or, more accurately speaking, on the 15th of July, 1863, four men came into his shoe store, and, with the freedom of manner in vogue at that time, demanded his money or his tife. Preferring to give up his money rather than give up the ghost in this unceremonious ee he gave them $20, which was all the meney he had, But this did not not satisfy his visitors, it seems, as they helped themselves in addition to $72 worth of his boots and shoes. Mr. Dean, on behalf of the city, moved a dis- missal of the complaint, on the ground that the evidence did not show that the parties robbing him rea ie to do with the riot then in progress the city. Judge Bavis denied the motion to dismiss the complaint, and when the time came to charge the jury gave it as his opinion that, from all the sur. Toundings of the case, there could be but little if any doubt that the parties threatening Mr. shaeffer and robbing him were part and parcel of the law- less gang who thus, by this act of highanded out- lawry, spread such terror throughout the city. The jury took but a short time to deliberate upon the case and brought in a verdict tor $160, being the full amouny claimed, with interest, SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS, Decisions. By Judge Barrett.

Preliminary to ruling upon the trial of George jhefflin, the alleged wife murderer, in this Court yesterday, Edward Dent, who, on Monday last, was found guilty of burglary in the third degree and remanded till yesterday, was brought up for sen- tence. Mr. William r. Howe, his counsel, appealed to the Court to be merciiul, urging that the prisoner had a young wife and twe small children, and that this was the first time he was ever beiore the Court since his arrivai in this country. Judge Brady replied that he was informed that the prisoner was an English professional thief, and that he would show no mercy to any ef this class brought before him. It was to be regretted that he had a wife and children who would siffer for bis etfence, but the prisoner should have thought of that before he placed himself in such a jg tt law—five He would give him the full penalty of the years in State Prison with hard labor, SUPERIOR COURT—TRIAL TERM—PART |. Verdict Against a Life Poe Com. pany. Before Juidge Freedman, The suit of Grace fioole, assignee of John Moole, Jr., against the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Com- pany, for $10,000 on a life insurance policy, came to trial yesterday in this Court, For tho defence an offer was made of the full amount claimed with costs, but this was not accepted, The result was, in addition to a verdict for whole sum and} terest, the plaintiff got costs and an extra allew- ance Was granted beside, MARINE COURT—PART |, Action on a# Contract for the Purchase of Real Estate. Before Judge Curtis, Portner vs. Erishart.—This was an action brought by plaintiff, as assignee of the chose in action, to recover damages against defendant, a married woman, having @ sole and separate estate, for alleged breach of contract to convey real estate. It appears that Daniel Erlshart, the ignor of plaintit, entered into a contract under seal with defendant for the purchase of & house and lot in Forsyth street, agree: ing to give in return promissory notes for $150 each, and also the assignment of two certain mortgages upon premises in Linden street, Brook- lyn, The aewigyor PAld $500 down to bind the bars gain, but when the time of performance came the fendant refused to comply with the contract. ‘The answer of the defendant was :—First—Fraud, misrepresentation and deceit, in this, that the as- siguor or plaintiff! was fnancially worthieas, and his notes good for nothing. Secomad—That the assignor of the Brooklyn mortgages had no color of title, the mortgages having been obtained by fraud from the mortgagor, one Mme. Blygert, the owner in fee ol the Brooklyn property. Judge Curtis charged the jury that although contracts under seal were to be construed strictly, yet in legal contemplation the defendant was entitled to have tendered to her good marketable and negotiable paper and yalid mortgages; that the onus provendt was on the plainuff to snow that the assignor was able and willing to perform his part of the contract at the time and in the manner specified in the con- tract; that the notes should at the time have beon signed, the deed perfected and tendered to de- fendant for her signature, and that the mort- gages should have been valid and of such ature as could be enforced; that if they were satisfied that the plaintiff had not established these things affirmatively no right of action accrued as against defendant; that the assignor of the Brook- lyn mortgage acquired ne greater title than was Vested in the owner of the tee, and it was con- tended that her title was clouded, and that eacam- brances of record still existed against the prop- PR? and that the Court was not ousted ef juris. diction, as the question of title to real estate did net arise from the statement and proofs of plain- tif’s case, and defendant had failed to conform to the provisions of the law relative to the removal ol the cause to a court of record, The jury found for defendant. MARINE COURT—PART 3, Action Against a Surety for a Lease. Before Judge Howland. William 8, Ridabock vs. Philip Isaacs.—This ac- tion is brought against the defendant as surety on @ lease for the payment of the rentin case of the failure of the tenant, The amount claimed is $200, witn interest. The lease was made out in the names ef the plaintiff and Poulin Aaron, and signed P, Aaron & Sen, which signature was erased and “Pauline Aaron” written under it, The plaintif's agent testifed that Aaron first signed the name P, Aaron & Son, and then upon his objecting to that signature he ran his pen threugh it an 1 wrote Pauline Aaron and his own name; that the lease Was aiterwards taken to the defendant In that con- dition, when he signed as surety, On the part of the deience it was sought to be es- tablished that the suretyship was for P. Aaron & Son, and that the erasure and substitution of the signature “Pauline Aaron” took place after the de- fendant’s signing it. And the further objection was taken that “Pauline Aaron" is the name ofa woman, and not that of the party to whom the lease was made—‘Paulin.”” The Court found that the signature P, Aaron & Son was erased and the other name substituted be- fore the defendant's signature, and that the evi- dence showed that the defendant became surety for Paulin Aaron, @ man, and not for a woman, ren- dering judgment in favor of the plaintiff for $214 50, a plaintiff, Paddock & Cannon; for defendant, C, ne. COUNT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. Alleged Forgery of a Satisfaction Piccc= A Technical Acquittal. Before Recorder Hackett. Tho fore part of yesterday's session ef this Court was consumed in the trial of an indictment for forgery in the third degree against Henry M. Low- enstein, the allegation being that, on the 16th of May, 1870, he forged a satisfaction of judgment with Intent to defraud William W. and Charles a. Robbins. It appears that these gentlemen ob- tained a judgment against A. Lowenstein, the wife of the defendant, in the Supreme Court for $456 76, which was entered on the 18th of May, 1868. As- sistant District Atterney Russell opened the case for the people and called Isaac T. Brown, a docket clerk in the County Clerk's office, who swore that on tke i38th day ei Juno, 1872, Lowenstein presented the paper shown te him [the alleged forged document). rr. Russell asked the witness what Lowenstein said atthe time, whereupon Mr. A. Onrey Hall, who defended Lowenstein, objected to the question, and proceeded, in an elaborate argument, to urge that the indictment was defective. The main ol Jection made by the learned counsel was that the so-called satisfaction piece was invalid on its face and could not be the subject of forgery. The statute expressly stated that, before a satisiac- tion plece could be uttered at ail in its genuine shape, it must be averred that the party so offer- ing it was personally knewn to the Commissioner, ‘Fhe indictment tailed to set forth that important fact, and was, thereforo, a fatal omission, Mr. Russell, in replying to the argument, con- tended thatit could not be successtully urged that at least the instrument in question did not pur- ort to discharge the obligation which it was in- ended to discharge. He said that the other ques- tion was “sprung” by the counsel, and he (Mr. Russell) not having bad time to examine the authorities quoted by the counsel for the ant, he suggested that the trial should and these questions be fully argued upon an arrest Ge eT chek ir. Hall replied that all things were “sprung,” and that it would not be expected that he would publish his peints in advance in the newspapers, He quoted a decision of Judge Sutheriand at the General Term, which be claimed sustained the objection that he made to the indict- ment, and asked the Court to instruct the jury to acquit his client, The Recorder held that the peint taken by Mr. Hail was good, and was sustained by the decision of the Gencral Term and the Court of Appeals. He had no ebjection to permit the trial to proceed if the counsel for the accused would not press the ebjection. Mr. Hall renewed his request to have the jury in- structed to render a verdict of net guilty, and His Honor accordingly did 30, and the accused was ac- quitted, A “Fast”? Youth Sent to the Peniten- tiary for Stealing a Diamond Pin. Charles Stapf,a youth, was tried and convicted of grand larceny, he having stolena diamond pin on the 16th of July last, valued at $175, from the person of Miles Connolly. Captain McCullough ar- rested the boy in @ gambling saloon en Broadway and found a pawn-ticket for the pin in his pocket, which enabled him to recover the property, The accused told the Captain that he took it in a “ark,” but when he went on the stand had the pi to swear that he picked it up on the side- walk. The Recorder, in passing sentence, said that Stapf was a bad boy; Nit, as the jury recommended him to mercy, the sentence was modified te im- prisonment in the Penitentiary for three years, Larcenies. Ernest Kraus pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with steating- clothing, valued at $35, from the premises of Ludwig Trambauer, on the 7th of February.

Henry Sturtz, a foreman in Singer's Manufactur- ing Company, was placed on trial, charged with cutting Albert Wirl tn the wrist witha knife, on the 11th of October, at 249 Broome street.

Schade and Caroline Keeling to the house of the complainant to demand a retraction of an alleged slandereus statement. Wirl took up a knife and threatened to kill them, and while Sturtz held his hand to pre- vent him stabbiog Schade, he was slightly wounded in the wrist.

COURT OF SESSIONS, A Father Killing His Childs Before Judge Moore. Peter Fox, a rough, dissipated fellow, was yés- terday tried for manslaughter, in having caused the death of his son, a lad of about fourteen years, Fox lived in the tenement house 62 Hepkins street, and while drunk, on the evening of the 4th of February last, he beat and kicked his son, because the latter refused to go out and procure some beer. ‘The blows and the cries of the poor hoy were heard by other inmates of the house, Lut none of them inter- fered. Young Fox wes 8o badly injured that he died on the followlig day, and an examination of DOO reycaléd wounds abeut the head and ab- The defence Gave out that the boy had died of Small-pox or some other fell disease, but the prose- cution proved plainly the state ol facts related above, and the jury Prony convioted the pris- oner of manslaughter in the fourth degree. Judgo Moore thereupon sentenced him to the Peniten- tlary for two years, remarking that he Was fortu- nate in escaping with such a light cenviction, A Bigameous Coachman. James Fox, a coachman, was convicted of bigamy yesterday, He was tried once before, but the jury disagreed, Fox married Mary Ann Orgleton, a cook, in 1870, and, shortly after the honeymoon, he sent his Mary Ana “over the sea’ for the os- tensiblo purposo of having her return with some of his folks. During her absence he wooed and wen a buxem chambermaid named Maggie Scanion. Father McElroy united the pair in the holy bonds. Maggie was net aware that James had already been married. When Mary Ann returned and discovered this piece of treachery she caused the husband's arrest, and while he was ren awaiting trial Fox attempted o commit suicide by severing an artery in his rm. The jury yesterday considered the case for a couple of hours and then announced their verdict, ‘The prisoner was remanded. THE GREAT TRAIN HOAX. 'The “Pagan Dictator” and His Prosecue tora in Court=Who Are tho Lunatics? The curtain rose on the second act of the great Train comedy in the Court De Lunatico Inqutrendo, presided over by Chief Justice Daly, at four o'clock yesterday afternoon, The audience was quite as large as at the matinée of the previous day, a num- ber of ladies occupying orchestra chairs in front, | “The coming Dictator’’ appeared with a coachman’s nosegay in his buttonhole, and smiled and bowed on the learned Judge, Surgeon General Hammond, the gentleman who holds George is insane, and the andtence generally. The opinion seems to have gained ground with those who were present in Court during the investigation of the last two days, from the wonderful quictude and gentlemanly bearing of the alleged “lunatic,” that Mr. Train is playing the hugest kind of a practical Joke on the authorities, and that now, when the farce is nearly ended, he ts willing to be- come serious and surround himself with a phalanx of counsel to raise his bill of “damages” for all that | he has suffered in his last “Bastile."’ Mr. George Bemis, Mr. Train's private secretary, who was ac- 1 gompanted by several ladies, occupied a seat near the Dictator. The good Mrs. Bishop, with the law- yer whom she has feed to save Mr. Train, had also seats in Court. Tho funniest aud most suggestive scene in the whole comedy was when, at the ad- journment of the Court, Surgeon General Ham- inond and “the coming Dictator” held a most ani- mated conversation, apparently with great earnestness on both sides. Only One witness was exatined, whose testimony was not concluded at the time of the adjournment, TESTIMONY OF DR. HAMMOND. Dr. Wm. A. Hammond testified—Had made the question of mental diseases bis special study for the last nine years; in connection with this pres- ent case visited the Tombs on the 16th and 17th of last month to examine Mr. Train and to report upon his mental condition te the Dis- triot Attorney; on arriving at the Tombs expressed @ Wish to see Mr. Train in the counsel room; was told by the Warden that he refused to leave his cell; proceeded to the cell and found him lying on the bed, with his clothes on anda blanket wrapped round him; in conversa- | tion he said that he had expected, en his return from Europe, te have been elected President of the United States, but that he despised the position now, and wouldn't accept it if offered to him; that he was then “Pagan Dictator; that he would sweep Grant out of power, and that he alone should rule the country; asked him if he would use the guillotine; Train said no, that he was a humane man, which I (witness) be- lieve he is; he sald he was chief of the Commune; that he would displace Grant; that the Tombs would be razed and that the streets of New York would run with blood; out of these delusions he could not be reasoned, and that is an undoubted proof of his insantty; if he could be reasoned out of these assamptions of kis there would not be the same jomoune of delusion; 1 tried him in this regard. The Court—State to the jury what passed be- tween you and Mr, Train on that poiat, in which you reasoned with and contradicted him, Witness—I said to him, “But you are not a pagan Dictator ;” but he insisted that he was, ‘The Court—What did he say? Witness—He replied, “1 am Pagan Dictator; I am convinced that when he said so he believed he was Dictator; tis one of the most common delu- sions of insane persons that they imagine and as- sert themselves to be certain notable the Emperor Napoleon and George Washington are favorite characters assumed by ‘Series labor- ing under insane delusions; these delusions may exist for a lifetime with a person and no injury arise to ay person from them ; but there is no tell- ing what they may lead te, because they may ex- tend at any mement; aman may imagine himself as Emperor of Russia and be harmless for a time; may sit on his chair as 4 throne and wield a stick for a sceptre, but he may in a sudden moment change from that, imagine himself clothed with the power of life and death, and kill; Ido not be- eve that Mr. Train's delusion is likely to extend | a far; he rather appears to be jolly in his delu- sions, Cross-examined by Mr. Olarke Bell—The confine. Ment which Mr, Train suffered from tn his cell in the Tombs would be likely to develop insanity in any person predisposed to it; in reference to the questien of Dictator, he said he was the Dictator ef 1873; in fact he sald to me (witness), in this court room, that he is new Dictator; Il believe Mr, Train has now disease of the brain, Q. Doctor, did he tell you what was the matter with yoarself—that you had the —? (Laugiter.) A. No; I think not. Q. Didn't he tell he that you weighed twenty ounds too much?

This was an action on a distilier’s bond, The de« fence of the sureties was that the bond was signed by them in blank, upon condition that one Clou® should become a joint obligor before the delivery of the bond; but that it was delivered by the princi- pals without sbtainiie the signature of Cloud, and Without thelr knowledge. The District Coart found, jor the Government, as agsings the Srinaess. bag in favor of the sureties. The Circuit Court reversed that decreo, and upon & second trial the verdict Was against principais and sureties. It is here insisted that until the boad' assed out ef the possession of tho obligors, withk heir consent, it was not valid, and that having. been by them placed in the hands of another for certain purposes the possession of that other ia their possession, as their agent, and those wha deal with the agent are not protected, unless hig acts are within his authority, The government contends that, as the bond was regular and pere fect on its face and actually delivered without w stipulation, it cannot be avolded on the plea here made.
