A most important question as to the constitu- Wonality of the Habitual Criminals act came up yesterday in the case of Jeremiah McCarthy, a Notorious violator of the law, as known to the Police and the criminal courts, on points raised by Mr. W. F.Howe. A crowded court of the class to Which McCarthy belongs attested the interest ‘with which the sweeping law is watched and the ‘error it is calculated to engender in the hearts of the “‘habituais."’ The points are well raised and ‘were ably sustained by argument. The District Attorney appeared in support of the constitution- ality of the act, and, after a full discussion of the question, Judge Fancher reserved opinion till this morning, and, in the meantime, will confer with hig associates. HABITUAL CRIMINALS ACT. As the Act Constitutional and Should It Be Enforced t—Eff.¢! of Its Operation— An Interesting Question Timely Agi- tated. A motley crowd assembled in the Supreme Court, Chambers, yesterday, interested in the argument which would make a test question of the Habitual Criminals act. The proceedings came up before Juage Fancher on writs of habeas corpus and cer- tiorari issued in behalf of Jeremtah McCarthy by Mr. William F. Howe. The prisoner is the first per- fon arrested under the new Jaw, and was sen- tenced to ninety days’ imprisonment in the Peni- tentiary by a Magistrate of the Essex Market Po. lice Court on the 26th of last month. In bringing tne case to the attention of the Court | Mr. Howe first insisted that the evidence upon which the Magistrate ordered the relator’s convic- tion was improper, and that the competent testi- mony required by the statute was insufficient in McCarthy's case. The constitutionality of the law was then tully reviewed, and the propositions mares by Mr. Howe and the stand taken by him are fully set forth in the following points submitted by that gentleman :— ‘ORT OF MOTION, ¢, for the discharge of Jere- ny under the act of April 30, 1873, ai Criminals Act,” upon the grounds neon stitutional, are as 1ollows:— First—This acts unconstitutional tor the reason that a person, to be Hable to arrest and punishment under the act, must have been theretofore charged with being a Professional thiet, burglar, pickpocket, counterfeiter or Jorger, or must have been arrested by the police authori ues at some steamboat landing, railroad depot, church, banking institution, b s ‘office, place of public auction roo sale in private resi- itor at any other gather he people, whether few or many. In order to bring any such person within the provision of the law, it need not be shown that such person HAS COMMITTED ANY CRIME, %, but he is liable to the pains and penalties of the act if it 1 be proven to the satisfaction of any police magis trate or justice of the peace, by sufficient testimony, that he or ste was frequenting or attending such place or Places for any unlawful and that he or | @he has at some tine any of the | ex mentioned in the © been deemed a | joption of the consti- * were generally tried a jury. eptions these were not | sufficiently tumerous to affect the general usage, It was rovided by the constitutions ef 1777 and 1s22 and 1546 | hat “the trial by jury, in all cases in which it has been heretotore used, : HANL REMAIN INVIOLATE FOREVER.” It was decided by the Supreme Court of this State, in ‘the case of Wood ys. The City of Brookivn, 14 Barb.. p. 42, that a per: fh trial by b the law-abiding citizens of this - ners. community would be the gaii Justice ‘pancher said that he wonld reserve his decision until to-day, in order to confer with his associate Jedges before deciding so impprtant a question. When the Court had so decided the im- mense throng cleared out of the court yoom, jubi- | lant in the prospect that the able argument and, to them, unanswerable is of the learned counsel, who contended against the constitutionality of the act, would surely prevail. IMPORTANT COLLISION CASE. aS BLE. a asst Sg A Cross Suit—Deeision by Judge Blatch- ford, Yesterday, in the United States District Court, in the case of Charles H. Champers and Others vs. The Schooner Helen J. Holway and William 0. Holway and Others vs. The Schooner Enoch J. Moore, Judge Blatchford delivered his opinion. ‘These were cross suits growing out of a collision which took place between the schooners Helen J. Holway and Enoch Moore, in the Chesapeake Bay, on the 10th of September, 1871, about half-past four o'clock in the morning. Both vessels were injured by the collision, The Judge in the course of his decision says ‘The two vesseis were crossing, so as to involve risk of collision, and they had the wind on different sides, and the Moore having the wind tree on her port side, was bound to keep out of the way of the Molway, and the Holway was bound by the eighteenth rnie to Keep her course, and aid | keep her course. The pleadings of the Moore put | the case as one of an observance by the Moore of the twelfth rule and a violation by the Holway of | the eighteenth rule, They do not put the case as + one under the eleventh rule, where both of the vessels were bound to port, as meeting end on, or neariy end on, For although the Moore sets up in her pleadings that she ported, and did right in porting, yet she does nov set up therein that the Holway ought to have ported and did wrong in not porting. On the contrary, the pleadings of the Moore assert that the Holway was close hauled: that the master of the Moore saw that the Holway was closehauled; that because he so saw he ordered the helm of the Moore to be ported; that the Holway being close- hauled was bound to keep her course, and that, if she had kept her course no collision would have occurred, Were to establish that the vessels were meeting end on, could not be permitted to contend that it required porting by the Holway%o prevent a col- lision. The Moore has affirmed, in her pleadings, that an adherence by the Holway to her close- hauled course, combined with porting done by the Moore, would have avoided a collision. Itis not meant to be implied, by anything I have said, that, it the Holway had been _ head- ing north, closehauied on her starboard tack, 80 that the vessels were meeting end on, or nearly so, 50 as to involve risk of collision, the case would have been one requiring the Holway to port her helm. it is certainly true, however, that where the Moore, in her pleadings, asserts that, the Moore | having ported, porting by the Holway was un- necessary to avoid a collision, the Moore cannot be heard to say that it was a fault in the Holway not to have ported, the Moore having ported.” The sibel of the Moore must be dismissed with costs. On the Jibel of the Hoiway there must be a decree for the libellants, with costs, with a refer- ence to a Commissioner,to ascertain the damages sustained by them. A. J. Heath for the Holway, Dennis McMahon for the Moore. BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT. Suit for Condemnation of Oil Paintings. Before Judge Blatchford, The case of the United Szates vs.’ Forty-five Oil Paintings, was conciuded, yesterday, before Judge Blatchiord and a jury. The oil paintings belong to an artist named Richard Vandenhanden, and it Was sought by the government to condemn them on the ground that they were sinuggled. The de- Jence was that the goods constituted implements of trade, and, therefore, were not subject to duty, There was a verdict in favor of the claimant, T, Simons, for the government ; J. E. Wheeler for the claimant. SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS. Decisions. By Judge Fancher. George vs. George.—Report confirmed and judg- Ment of divorce granted.

It was admitted by the defence that the injury complained of was the resuit of the break- ing Of a bottle of oil of vitriol on defendant's premises; but that no liability was ineuri negligen the handling of the vi proven, but that from the testimony it was shewn that the spilling of the vitriol was the result of the bursting of the bottle, and that all proper care and prudence we e) ed in the handling of it.

Steinhardt and L, Steinhardt.—This was an action against the makers and endorser of anote. The defendant, L. Steinhardt, who was the endorser, sought to avoid liability upon the ground first of an usurious contract, of which the note in suit was the repre- sentative; second, that there was an agreement to extend the time of payment by which the liability of the endorser ceased and determined. E. K. Steinhardt swore that he procured the endorse- ment of L. Steinhardt without any consideration for the purpose of taking up an old note in the hands of plaintif, and that plaintif exacted two and a half per cent per month as interest ; that when the note became due plaintiff eed to ex- tend the time of payment on recetpt of additional interest (usurious), and three drafts on M.

Judy urtis charged the jury that the defence was of a dual nature—usury and extension of time witheut the assent of the’ endorser; that if the jury were satisfied that L. Steinhardt was an ac- commodation endorser without consideration, and that the first purpose to which the note was put was an usurious one, then the note itself was tainted in whosevers hands it might come, and was void; that if the jury believed that plaintit granted an extension of time to pay the note then the liability of the endorser’ceased, as a new legal obligation and responsibility were created on part; but if they believed that no nsmrious interest was exacted and no extension of time granted, and that the drafts were simply in the nature of collateral security, there should be a verdict for plaintt, Jury found for plaintiff in $1,000, Action for Injuries to an Infunt. Moritz Pollutschek vs. The Gold and Stock Tele- graph Company.—The plaintiff’ sought to recover for the loss of services of @ minor son, who, it was alleged, was injured by the agents of delendant, who were constructing telegraphic apparatus along the line of the Bowery. It appeared in evi- dence that the son of plaintiff, in company with another boy, attempted to leap over a long tele- graph pole as it was being rapidly drawn by two horses down the Bowery, and hence the injury. It was further shown that the work in question was being done by @ contractor under a wittten agree- meut and that the immediate agents and servants acura were not engaged upon the work at Judge Curtis, on motion of Mr. Joseph Larocque, dismissed the complaint upon the tributary negligence and non-hability in any event of the defendant corporation, COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS—PART |. An Aggravated Case of Robbery—The Highwayman Sent to the State Prison for Twenty Years. Before Recorder Hackett. ‘There was a case of more than ordinary impor- tance tried in this Court yesterday, which resulted in the speedy conviction and sentence of the prisoner, whose name was Patrick McLoughlin. He was indicted for the grave crime of robbery 4h the first degree upon the person of Henry Eagan, who testified that he resided at No, 120 Mulberry street, and that while returning from his sister's house, in Lexington avenue, on Sunday morning the 18th of May, between three and four o'clock, and when witnin two doors of his house, saw the prisoner emerge irom a hallway. McLoughlin, saluted him in an apparently friendly tone and bade him “Good evening.’ to which he (Kagan) replied in a polite manner, whereupon the pris- oner, whose face he saw distinctly, struck him on the head with some instrument which was “awful weighty.” He dodged his head immediately, and the blow came on the collar-bone and broke it and knecked him down. McLoughlin jumped on him, tore half of his vest from bis body, which contained $39 or $40, and ran away. Kagan shouted “Murder, police!’ and Officer Fox responaed with- out delay, and was soon joined by two other of- ficers. The complainant showed the officer where McLoughlin ran to, and officer Hogan ar- rested him a few minutes alter the rob- bery as he was going out of the door of a house near the’scene of the occurrence. ‘The prisoner had @ slungshot in his coat pocket, and when asked where he got it said that a “bare-headed boy” whom he met on the stairs must have shoved it in. Fagan identified the prisoner at once as the man who assailed and robbed him. The accused testi- fied in his own behalf, and said he was a tailor; that on this night he was attending a wake in Mul- berry street, and after being there went to the house of @ man named Farrell, and while there heard shouts of ‘Murder !”’ “Watch!” and ‘Police !"? He went out to see what was the ter, and while going down stairs met aman, who wheeled him around, and when he reached the foot of the stairs was stopped by a policeman, who observed the slungshot hanging out of his side pocket. The accused said that was the: first he knew of having such an instrument in his possession, and supposed that the boys who were fooling with him at the wake put it in his pocket. Mrs, Farrell and Mrs, Conway swore that the risoner was looking out of the window when they eard the shout of “Murder!” and “Police!” The jury, however, disbelieved their story, and after a few moments of deliberation rendered a verdict of ity. His Honor, in passing sentence, alluded to the aggravated nature of the case and the clear proof of the prisoner’s guilt, to which he added the crime of perjury. The sentence was twenty years’ imprisonment in the State Prison. Larcenies, Louis Meyer pleaded guilty to an indictment charging him with stealing a horse, valued at $150, on the 23d of May, the property of William F. Doty. He was sent to the State Prison for three years and six months, + Sarah Jones, who on the 26th Of April stole a pair of gold earrings, owned by Mrs. Booth, of Madtson avenue, by whom she was employed as a domestic, was convicted of petty larceny. She was sent to the Penitentiary for six months, COURT CF GENERAL SESSIONS-PART 2. Before Judge Josiah Sutherland. ‘This Court had a long session yesterday and dise posed of a number of cases. Mary J. Vincent, a colored girl, fourteen years of age, pleaded guilty to an attempt at grand Jarceny and was sent to the House of Refuge. A House Thief. James McMahon, who sald he was a tailor and admitted having heen on a drunk for several weeks previous to his arrest, was tried for grand larceny. The articles stolen were some clothing belonging | to John McTiernan, of 11 West street, and were taken in the nighttime. Two days afterwards the prisoner made another attempt in the same house and was captured, — befor the magistrate he pleaded guilty; but this h ed he had done in consequence of the threats of the officer that if he did not yes to every question put to him he would stuff his cinb down his throat and otherwise malireat him. Ofcourse the jury discredited his story, and the man was senteiced to the State Prison for three years. Buliying 2 German, ‘Thomas Murray, a boy of sixteen, was tried for assault and battery. In company with a comrade he went on a spree and entered a lager beer saloon and quarrelled with the proprietor, ealling him an | “old cock,” and other yet stronger epithets, which, ofcourse, made trouble.

Thomas McGinnis, a street waif, was tried for burgiary and found innocent—though the “not guilty” verdict was coupled with a sort of tacit in- junction, “don't do it ag » His tender age and forlorn condition probably saved him from a con viction. A Shooting Case. ‘Thomas Steinagel was tried for shooting Oscar Weston with a shotgun, Mr, Brown, Steinagel’s uncle, keeps a tung establishment at Sixty-sixth street, and some boys, who had paid for a bath, were helping themselves to his fruit, when Thomas appeared on the scene and fired a shotgun at them, wounding two of them. He said, in extenuation, that he did not suppose the gun’ was loaded with anything more than powder and paper (as it was shown to be usually), and he therefore was ac- qmtted. JEFFERSON MARKET POLICE COURT, Arrest of Policy Dealers by Disguised Policemen, There was manifested at the Jefferson Market Police Court yesterday another of these spasmodic efforts in the interest of society which certain of our police authorities occasionally make, rather, it would seem, to cover up their want of efficiency elsewhere thau for any good which is likely to result, During the day, under the direction of Captain Byrnes, of the Fifteenth precinet, @ raid was made upon the policy dealers within his juris- diction, and some dozen of them were arraigned before Justice Cox, most of them on complaint of policemen in disguise, who were so eager in the performance of the duty that they could not wait to consummate the purchase which rendered the criminal transaction complete. It is not known in the history Of criminal jurisprudence in this city that any policy dealer was ever convicted, nor in the present state of the law Is it like to be, and while it is true that these vampires who prey upon the scanty earnings of the poorer Classes should be punished, and a stop put to their nefarious business, the mere fact of arresting them and binding them over to answer charges Which are never prosecuted {8 not likely to contribute to that e It is a curious fact that the wealthy dealers, from whom these “small fry” are mere offshoots, are never troubled, but carry on their business openly in the face of the authorities, One of the more these is located in the Fifteenth precinct, but was not included in the ratd of yesterd: ose ar rested were held in the sum of to answer, The following are their names:—Stephen Kent, 134 Clinton place; John Kent, 13 South Fifth averuc; Benjamin Simmons, No. 2 Amity street; Geor Walters, 700 Broadway; Moses Bigiey, 64 Fast Thir- teenth street; Michael Nelson, 1! lercer street; Joseph Collins, 198 Wooster street, and Charles Smith, No. 8 Amity street.

John G, Webster offered prayer, ‘The special committee to whom was referred 50 much of the Grand, Master's report as referred to the Chicago Board of Relief, recommended that the $3,404 17 returned by the Chicago Board of Relief be returned to the treasury of the Grand Lodge of this State, to be appited to the relief of the brethren in the city of Chicago. The report of the com- Vries met with the entire approval of the Grand The marshals appointed to take chai of the funeral of the late M. W. James L. on were re- quested to meet at the new Masonic ‘temple on unday, at ten A. M. Numerous resolutions of coffdolence were then passed, after which the following newly elected officers were installed :— THE OFFICERS OF THE GRAND LODGE. M. W. Christopher G. Fox, Grand Master; R. W.

George H. Raymond, Grand Lecturer. An amendment was passed taxing the members ofeach lodge in the jurtdietion fifty cents per annum for the next five years; proceeds to go to the Hall and Asylam fund. The penalty, for non-payment of dues was changed from “suspension” to ‘‘suspension from membership” in the lodge to which the defaulter belongs. The word ‘suspension’? was afterward changed to ‘“‘unaMiiation,”’ and the words “irom membership” stricken out, and the Grand Lodge refused to reconsider the vote. A petition for the restoration of the Louisville Lodge, of Louisville, was denied, and a like re- fet from Ramond Lodge, of this city, was re- erred to the Grand Master with power. Deputy Grand Master Ellwood E. Thorne in- formed mastey's of lodges that the only notice he could give of the funeral of M. W. James L. Orr would be through the HERALD and other papers, ‘This notice would probably appear the day before the funeral, which would take place on Thursday or Friday. {t was also announced that checks had been re- ceived irom Mystic Tie Lodge for $250, and from Templar Lodge for $342, towards the Hall and Asylum fund.

George 0, Baker, of Clyde, and W. David F. Day, of Buffalo.” R, W. Edmund L. Judson, from the Committee on Finance, reported various appropriations for salaries and for charitable and other purposes. The Grand Secretary was recommended to receive $6,000 for salary and clerk hire, and the Boards of Relief of New York $1,500, and Brook- lyn and Williamsburg $1,000 each. Seventy-five dollars were appropriated for a safe for the Grand ‘Treasurer, and all moneys over and above what is required to pay expenses were turned over to the Hall and Asylum Fund, THE CONDITION OT MASONRY. * The M. W. John L. Lewis, from the Committee on the Condition of Masonry reported as follows :— The committee congratulates the fraternity that it has very little to do. So peaceful has been the craft; so great its prosperity and its condition, so eminently harmonious and satisfactory, as appears by the very able and [ptenenting. address of the Grand Master, that it has left nothing ior the committee to pro- pose, only the pleasurable offer of tendering its congratulations. The report concludes by,stating that while the committce approves of a convention of Masters of ee SS to take steps for completing the temple, they do not wish to take the matter out of the hands of the Grand Secretary, and trust that its being brought publicly before the frater- nity will answer the purpose required. The terms of office of the Commissioners of Ap- peals were announced as follows:—The Chief R. W. Alexander E. Suffern, three years; John A. De Rei- mer and Alexander T. Goodwin, three years; Wil- liam T. Woodruff and David F. Day, two years, and Elles 4. Conch and George C.

AN HONEST CONGRESSMAN’S REWARD, Honors to Ex-Congressman Halscy in Jersey City. The wealth, intelligence and respectability of Jersey City were well represented last evening in the assemblage that collected at Taylor's Hotel to Make ex-Congressman George A. Halsey their guest at a sumptuous banquet. Dr. Cornelison | presided. After the dinner Mr. Scudder, the pres- ent Congressman, arose, and in an appropriate speech presented Mr. Halsey with a magnificent service of silver, the gift of Jersey City men with- | out regard to politics. Mr, Halsey responded in @ quict and modest way, after which several toasts were proposed by Mr. F. G, Wolbert. The responses were made by Senator Frelinghuysen, H. N. Congar, Leon Abbott, Orestes Cleveland, Justice Seymour, John Y. Foster, Mr. Pangborn and others, The crowning act of Mr. Halsey’s ofttcial career Was the passage by the late Congress of an act appropriating $200,000 for a post office in Jersey City, an act which would not have passed but for Mr. Halsey’s unconquerabie perseverance Tt was the last act passed by Congress, It wa: also. set down to his credit that he re- fused to pocket the “back pay steal,” but sent it to tht retary of the Treasury. No member of ‘the republican party ever obtained as large a democratic vote in the democratic county of Hud. son as Mr. Ralsey, and, although he has announced his determination to remain in pri Hife, it is the settled determination of his party to put him for- ward for Governor when the next gubernatorial campaign begins.
