Monachosi, by wham the arrest of the |. defendant was effected, deposed that, at an early hour on Tuesday morning he went to ‘the house 45 Crosby street, and knocked at the door; fa person inside said “Who is there?” a boy who was with witness said it was the boy seanpie who had returned bome wet and hungry; Joseph was with him; the door was opened immediately; there was a light on the mantelpiece; the man who opened the door was im his shirt and drawers; the room was a small one; seven men and two beys were siee! fg in it; Joseph Bor out Motto as tis “padrone;” Motto said he was not, that he was in the country but a few days; Joseph stuck to his story and insisted that Motto was his master; he recognized the place as the place he had livec in with Motto, and even went so far as to point out the heap of Tags he used to sleep on; the place was} very dirty; he (Mr. Monachesi) had made this matter the subject of investigation, and he had, come to the conciusion trom his inquiries that, whether these Italian chil- dren had come to this country by purchase or by being stolen, there must be at least from eight thousand to ten thousand of them in this city; there were probably one hundred and fifty of them in Crosby street, in gangs of ten or eleven each; each gan; oon ae @ room, the gang being in charge of a man; they were huddled together at night, sleeping in the — wretched clethes they wore auring the day; the dirt of these children was something Na to look at; when their clothes were taken off the dirt could be picked from their bodies, upon which it was encrusted—it could be scraped off; they were subjected to pun- ishment; they had their freedom, fn so far that they could go out into the street to beg money for thelr masters; but owing to the threats of punish- ment made against them they were airaid to rua aay from their masters and seek refuge else- where, At this stage of the proceedings eounse! for the prosecution said he rested, beleving that he had made out a good case against the prisofter. Counsel for defendant said he had a witness to produce, but he was not in attendance. The Commissioner adjourned the further hearing till Saturday morning. In the meantime the police ought to be on the lookout and mark well the places in Crosby street and neighborhood, where those “padroni”’ exercise their tyran- ny over these poor stolen children, whose eufferings cry to Heaven for vengeance against the vile, inhuman wretches who have kidnapped them from their homes. The captains of police ought to act in conjunction with the federal officials, in sup- pressing this horrible traMc and bringing those who ‘are Col in it to speedy and condign punishment, THE ST. PATRICK’S MUTUAL ALLI- ANCE ASSOCIATION. Another Outbreak of the Old Internal Dissensions—Both Sides ot the Case Pre-. sented in Court for Judicial Settle- ment. The wrangle between the St. Patrick’s Mutual Alllance Association and the St. Patrick’s Mutual Alliance Benevolent Association, both the offshoot of the original society, the name of which the former agsociation still retains, has been heretofore given fully in the HeRALD in connection with varied proceedings in the Courts, to which resort was made to settle the differences between them. As will be remem- bered each claims to be the successor of the old association, A suit was begun in which ali the funds of the old association were tied up by in- junction. This suit is still pending. At the time of the change of the association, @ Mr. O'Connell was secretary and Mr. Crow- ley was treasurer of the old association; the secretary, however, recetving the money and turning it over to the treasurer. Anew suit has just been begun in the name of the St. Patrick’s lutual Alliance Association against O'Connell and Crowley by Mr. Trainor, who claims to be its presi- dent, to restrain the defendants, who were asso- ciated with him, as against the benevolent society, from intertering with the funds or management of the society, charging them with failing to account properly to the society and with retaining certain moneys belonging to the society. There wasa bearing In this latter suit before Judge Daniels, holding Supreme Court, Chambers. The defendants set up that Mr. O’Connell was elected president of the society in December last and is now its president; that Mr. Trainor’s elec- tion, under which he claims, was not by the society but by a small clique; that the society has not authorized t suit; that the pay- a fendant | under it made by the authority of Executive Committee, of which Trainor was # member; that the accounts of O'Connell wefé passed nd sparored bya com- mittee of twenty-one, of which Trainor wasa member; that Trainor, in the other sult, swore to their correctness; that all the charges relate to funds of the old society, and that the allegations of the affidavits are in the most loose style of hear- say. They deny all the specific charges of misap- propstation: of money. in reply the plaintitf™s say that Mr. Trainor was duly elected; that five out of the seven original incor- Porators and trustess concurred in directing the suit to be begun; that the. orginal mot in the old jety was caused ry 1s trust of its cuniary management; that Trainor then toty believed { 1n r ‘Mr.t O'Connell and only later discovered that accounts were untrustworthy; that he should have made juarterly accounts, but never made but the one to e Cominittee of Twenty-one, and that that was on its face entirely unsatisfactory, giving mere lump statements of receipts and expenditures, and clearly inaccurate, and that the new incorporation had allthe rights of the old association. After heart quite a lengthy argument in the matter, Judge Daniels suggested as the better way to smooth over the difficulties the appointment of a receiver; but, before making any order in the case, said he would examine the papers, which he took, reserving his decision. MORE MANDAMUSING. teeta id I at A Deputy Clerk of the Special Sessions Anxious About His Pay—Advertising Bills of the Old Department of Public Works and Bureau of Elections. The attention of Judge Robinson, holding Special Term of the Court of Common Pleas, was occupied pretty much all day yesterday listening to argu- ments in mandamus cases. First in order Mr. Richard O'Gorman applied for a preremptory man- damnus directing the Comptioller to pay to James Ryan the sum of $1,666, being salary claimed for the months of February, March, April and May of 1873, during which Ryan was puty Clerk of the Special Sessions. It appeared that Judge Daniels rendered an elaborate opinion in the Supreme Court, denying a peremptory mandamus in this case, on the common law ground that Ryan, by accepting the omice of member of the Legisla- ture, vacated the other office, the two ing incompatibiel but as that point had not been ‘gued before him, he allowed an alternative andamus. This, however, rag Bi paplied fo 80, accordingly, the Present app! on Was “f in this Court. binson sald all he could do Juage was to grant the alternative mandamus. The writ was oe issued, feturnable on the 4th of next month. ‘ Mr. O'Gorman also appeared on behalf of William F. MacNamara, and made motion for a peremp- tory mandamus. He stated that the‘ claim wi for $4165, charge for advertising for the Board of Public Works in 1870, and $1,260 = for laces eer en the polling pl of the election of 1870. ie affidavit of Mr. Mag- Namara states that he was editor of the Sunburst, published in New York, in which these advertise- ments appeared, all at the regular charge of twenty-five cents a line, and that the Corporation Sar ereene of the Public Works Department was done order of the then Commissioner of Public Works, Wiliam M. Tweed, as proved the certificate of Mr. ‘Tweed, that “the work was done by order of the Department, and the charge is a proper one,” and that the list of polling places was published by order of Corne- lius Corson, then Chief of the Bureau of Elections, He recited the provisions of the Act of 1872, constituting the Board of Audit and Appor- eee the tribunal to audit newspaper claims r advertising, pridr to January, 1872, and states that the Board neglected to audit the reiator’s claims, and that the Board of Esti- mate and Apportionment, to which the powers of the Board were transferred, likewise neglected to audit the bills, and that the publishers have as- signed the claims to the relator, William F. MacNa- mara. On these papers Mr. O'Gorman moved for a peremptory mandamus to the Board of Estimate and a sun tank Mr. Andrews, Assistant Mag apes Counsel, re- plied in behalf of the Board, He said that this case was a “repeater,” having been five times in Cour! three times in the Supreme Court, in which reliet was denied on technical grounds, and once before Judgé Larremore in the Common Pleas, when it was determined on the merits anda mandamus denied, In the last application there were three items tn the claim; now they go on two only, and surely the greater includes the less, and they are estopped from making the motion. Mr. O'Gorman ¢aid Judge Larremore first gave an order denying the ma us “without prejn- dice,” but by some, mischance, and without notice to the relator, he gavi ontradictory order, The relator relied on the first order. Judge Robinson declined to interfere, but allowed the case to stand over till the 4th of next month, when application can be made to Judge Larremore to settle his order. THE LAGRAVE ‘CASE AGAIN, A Farther Effort to Restore Him to Liberty—The Case To Be Heard in Sep. tember. ‘The case ef Eugene Lagrave, which some time since occupie@ for a time a good deal of attention in the Courts, was yesterday revived, befure Judge Denieis, in Supreme Court, Chambers. Lagrave, 4s 18 well known, is charged with having swindled & large number of merchants in this city, after which he escaped to France, when he was brought back gnder an extradition treagy, and at once, on his arrival here, was arrested on twenty-two civil suits. A long litigation then arose as to the rightfulness of these arrests, and after pring some twenty-six hundred pages of testimony Judge Fancher held that he was not brought here for public but private ends, and that those who took part in this version of the extradition treaties could gain nothing by it, amd that the orders of arrest must be set aside, Mr. Charies W. Brooke, on behalf of ve, made an appli- cation to Judge Daniels, in three ef the cases, to also set aside the service of summons on the same grounds as those stated by Judge Fancher in his epinion, The motion was opposed on behalf of Duden freres onan afidavit that their only part in the matter was contributing money to bring Lagrave back to answer the demands of pub- lic justice, and not for their private suits. Mr. Brooke undertook to refer to the mass of testimony taken on the previons proceeding, but objection being token that it had not deen served on the plaintiffs’ attorney, the Court held tnat be must serve @ copy at least of such parts as he deemed essential to this motion, and to give time for that postponed the motion to the second Monday in September.

Grand Larceny. Henry Clark, of 700 First street, while passing the store of William Sachise, 783 Broadway, took a fancy to some suits which he saw inside.

MARKET Am To tue Eptror OF THE HERALD:— Fulton Market, like all other public markets, was originally built so that the public might procure, and the dealers dispose of, meats, poultry, vegeta- bles, fruits, &c., and such other articles as should be founda in a public market; but the parties who have control over the market have thought proper to grant leases or permits for the best stands in the market for business purposes other than tor ‘the sale of such produce; in fact, they have con- verted the place, or nearly so, into one vast dining saloon. There are eight of the largest oyster sa- loons in the city within the market limits, ana dining places innumerable. ‘The furnaces from these places give off all the offensive gases which are usually noticeable from Open cdal oF coke fires, and the amount may be estimated from the fact that they burn no less than thirty tons of coal or coké each week guring their busy season, The meat, pouliry, vegetables, &c,, exposed for sale are affected to such an extent in a short time a8 to make them unfit for consump tion, and it is a well known fact that the butchers will not display any more meat than they can sent avoid, for the reason that it becomes impregnated with 3 and covered with the cinders, &c., from thé jur- naces, causing, in about six hours, the pad nice beef to turn trom a clear white to a sickly ye! low and the meat froma clear bright color toa dull, heavy one. In fact, the whole generai appear- ance of the meat is altered, even in this short space of time. Is not this detrimental to pubiic health? Cannot the Board of Health abate the nuisance? The stench from the decaying oysters and shells in hot weather is almost unbearable. People in passing through the market usualiy attribute it to other causes. The authorities ve utterly destroyed the foreign fruit business in this city, It may ap- pear absurd that the tearing down of the portion ofthe market extending along the walk should materially interfere with the importation of, frui but it is nevertheless true. Bananas are brough' to this city in schooners, which arrive at the bulk- head opposite Burling silp. Cargoes are usually a mixture of green and ripe fruit; that which ts mn can be sent to other cities, but the tt must be Ny ty of here, and as a great share of thisis too ripe to bear cartin there must be a place to dispose of It near at hand, Fulton Market is exactly suited for that purpose, and as a great many of the dealers were interested in the im) ion they always had a selection of the very best iruit which arrived here, by which means Fulton Market became noted for its fine fruits, and, in fact, was the great retail fruit place for this city and vicinity, some of the stands aver- aging trom two to six hundred dollars per day. If uthorities will not pronae a place for the dealers in the market the importation of this fruit Must cease, as the principal profit is on the ripest of the iruit. Ii the heads of the proper depart- ments wish to preserve a business which 18 in its infancy a8 yet (as the importations have nearly doubied every year for the last five be until it now @ revenue to the government of $250,000 1m gold Lad £3 hg they can do so by providing places su'tabie jor these peopic to conduct their business, ¢ places now occupied z oyster and dining salaons, ram ops, boot and shoe stores, stationery and cigar stands would give them ail ample room and to satisfaction. The fruit dealers occupied ihe extension of tie walk on South street, ted for their special benefit by the Common ancil. In 1860 the city built the stands, and likewise the shed over the walk, and rented them under cer- tain conditions, not for & mere nominal rent, as some people suppose, but rather for an exorbitant rent, and, now that the Board or Health has de- clared our places a nuisance, We think it right the city should provide for us, alter being its tenant at high rents for about forty years, by giving us some locality in the public_markets favorabie for conducting our business. For the benefit of all those persons who are interested in Manhattan Market we woula simply state that it is utterly im- ossible to drive the fruit trade as far up town as ‘at struct Situated. TON MARKET PRU DEALERS, MASONIC CELEBRATION. Dedication of the Great Temple in Philadel- phia—An Immense Gathering Expected— Preparations for the Tournai ‘of the Knights Templars—Im- posing Ceremonies, PHILADELPHIA, August 20, 1873, Advices received from the Masonic traternity throughout the country by the Grand Commander of this State give evidence that the dedication of the great Temple on Broad street will witness the gathering of one of the largest bodies of Masons that ever assembled together at one time in the history of the Order. Responses have been received from upwards of two thousand iodges n the Union* and the Continent yof Europe, each pledging the attendance of full delegations in this city on the 25th of September, and many are yet td be hoard from. Preparations are now being made for the reception and accom- modation of 100,000 visiting brethren, and it is con- fidently expected that the crowd will be as great as upon the opening of the Centennial buildings. Workmen are now busily employed in giving the finishing touches tothe various chambers of this immense structure and itis anticipated that every- thing will be completed by the ist or 10th of Sep- tember. The grand banquet hall is being put in trim for the dedicatory feast, and the Norman, Jontc and Egyptian halls are each ready for inspec- tion, The other apartments will be thrown open in a few days, when visitors will be admitted. THE TOURNOI OF THE KNIGHTS TEMPLARS, on the 25th of September, will be one of the grandest and most imposing Masonic displays ever witnessed in America, as It is expected that the picked men out of the great army oi Sir Knights will undergo competitive evolutions, The project of a gath- ering of Knights Templars and a grand tournol by them belongs to one of the city commanderies, where it was first brooched in May last. it grew into such universal favor that flattering responses were received from the several commanderies, and committees were ap- pointed for the furtherance of the object. A meeting was subsequently held in the Asylum, Chestnut street, above Seventh, and the following Sir Knights were authorized to represent their several commanderies:— Sirs Elsworth H. Hults, William F. McCully and William D. Kendrick, of Philadelphia No. 1. Sirs John Thomly, Jeremiah L, Hutchinson and William Roger, of St. Johns No. 4, Sirs Harrison E, Olark, Comly J.

Oellers and R, Lloyd Lee, of St. Albans, No. 47. iter the appointments were confirmed Sir Knight Kelley introduced the following RESOLUTIONS, which were passed :— Rosolved, That the entertainment to be given be a tournoi, and that it be held on the night of the 25th of September, 1873, being the night previous to the dedica- tion of the hew Masonic Temple. As there was but one obstacle in the way, the Right Eminent Grand Commander of the State of Pennsylvania, since without his sanction the busi- ness could not proceed, and on motion of the same Knight it was Resolved, That the officers of the joint committee procure, from the R. &. Grand Commander of the State a dispensation, so as to allow the holding ot the tournoi. * This sanction was received, as will appear by the following communication received from that eminent oficial :— Guan Commanpina Kyronts Temrcars OF BNNSYI- LA AN Orne oF tux Ry E.

Such journals, in order to give relief to the staid, stale and drivelling trash they daily publish, give place to sensational talsehoods and popular reports and guesswork ‘to the injury of individual character and to the mortification and distress to families, Mansfield Walworth, being suspected of Southern sympathy, was confined during the war to the limits of Washington city and could not be with his ile upon the farm, where she remained manage it and take care of her children, an where I happened to be when he was released and came out ty join iis family, anda more harmonious and felicitous meeting I never witnessed, which does not give credit to the published accounts of her “npbraiding him, despising him, seorning him and casting him offebecause he would not take up arms and ight for the South’’—~a wilful and cruel fabrication. I well knew thig once happy but since sadly unfortunate pair, and could not think it possible they should ever be otherwise than ad- mnirers. of each other, After the death of Colonel Hardin, in Mexico, his widow—now Mrs. Cbencelior Walworth—-brought her three chilarén, two sons and an only daughter from Jacksonville, Til, to Harrodsburg Springs, and lived with ry wile, her cousin, till her marriage to tue Chancellor, which took place in my house. Nelly (now Mrs. Mansfield Walworth) was one of the most amiabie, good-hearted and confiding girls Lever =o and a favorite of all who knew her; nor ‘was Mansfield less admired, being pronounced by all an unusually handsome and elegant gentieman, sensitive to ail the courtesies of social life. I have hunted the moose with him at the heads of the Hudson, in the sublime Adirondack Mountains, and found him to be as courtly in the rude camp asin the gilded parlor. Who then could think it posst- ble for him to write, say and do what hé did with- out @ mutation—yes, a transmutation—by mental | insanity, there being as many disorders of mind ag there are of iy, of which physi are ag ignorant as the incredulous community. The finest of authors and the most beautiiul writers and speakers have been known to be deranged on certain subjects while sound on others. General Sam Houston, of Texas fame, and my fallow sol- djer in the war of 1812, was soincurably deranged on the subject of jealousy as to pinch his wife black and kick her out of bed, as was well known by her neighbors. Not only so, but he quit his home, went into Nashville dressed as an Indian chief, fen the streets with owl's feathers fly- ing in his cap, and at list went and lived with tho phy bn fora timo, Captain Desha, of Tennessee, another fellow soldier of mine (and the finest leok- ing officer tn the omy) + also became so aberrated in mind as to treat wife most cruelly, and in one of his Men? fits emasculated an innocent youth 10 his neighborhood. These are two cases only out of many others that I have myself wit- nessed where the persons were otherwise sane and of great practi energy. History tells of the troubles of the “Divine Milton” and his wife, of Byron and his, and or Ge others of the most intellectual of the world, tn all of which cases I am satisded. from mugh reading and loug study of NEW YOKK HERALD, FRIDAY, AUGUST 22, 1873—TRIPLE SHEET. mind, that there ts a disordered brain in ir other of the parties. Dr. Rush mentions many cases more incredible than any above named, We must infer, then, from the history and character of the above pair, and the similar cases here related, that Walworth was deranged, and that his per- sistent threats Of murder and insinuations of dis- grace to his own family estranged his wile’s aflec- tions till the fondest fove became the tellest hate,’ and the son, living in constant dread of his life, lost. his reason in the first law of nature, self-prea- ervation, and consequently committed the deed he did. Thus have I corrected a fabricated aud wanton slander, and shown from analogy that the parties above spoken of were fated to their end, as we all to ultimate death and to many intermediate aflictions. The husband being. deranged in mind (which misfortune he could not help), the wife, like you my reader, falsely but unavoidably thinking him wiifuily wicked, her love changed, as do the currents of winds—from @ sufficient cause—to hatred. [grant that all wilful acts are produeed by the will, the preximate‘cause, but, oh! how few look back at the remote and insidious cause—dis- ease of mind—which prompts the will. When we see @ person full, rosy and gay, and again look upon him emaciated, sallow, and with broken Spirits, we grant a fate, a sad and unavoidable cause, as in the melancholy fate of the above par- ties, who were once looked upon as lovely and be- leved, but by inevitable necessity became objects of malevolence and hatred, by our unscrupulous journals, where a more philosephic aud exalted feeliag ot commiseration and sympathy should soothe their sorrowful and hopeless ailtictions. In addition to the above references in treeing Mrs, Walworth from the charge of high treason, | here give my own proper naine, ¢. C, GRAHAM, M. D, LOUISVILLE, Ky., August 16, 1873. MURPHY AWAY AGAIN. The “Half-Aldermen” Become “Riley” About Murphy~Where Is He ?!—Clancy Wants the Scaips of the Skulkers. That extraordinary special meeting of the Board of Assistant Aldermen, the call for which Assistant Alderman Jerry Murphy signed after being per- mitted to select Thursday as the day, did not taxe Place yesterday. Ten of the members got together and waited for half an hour jor aneleventh, who should have been the recalcttrant Jerry. The Standing query about the City Hall is “Where is Murphy?” and it was revived yesterday for the especial reason that though Jerry had signified his intention to be present he did not turn up. On Monday last two of the Aldermen, imme- diately atter Jerry signed the call, assured the HERALD reporter that Jerry did not mean to attend on Thursday, and the result proves that they knew what they were talking about. Some half dozen members were lounging about the corridors, loal- ing in the Clerk’s rooms and dodging m and out of the Mayor’s office yesterday, while their colleagues were Waiting up stairs. ‘hen it became apparent that they were alike shirking their duties and the question of approval or disapproval of the action of the Clerk in making certain removals and ‘ap- pointments of attaches of the Board, the Clerk called the members to order, and the rol: was led, Assistant Alderman OLancy then rose from his seat, and sdarpsaing the Olerk (President Wade himself was among the absentees), said, “For tour weeks we have been trying to have a meeting of the Board, and on account of the absence of cer- tain members, who have wilfully remained outside the room, we have failed thus far; and this not- withstanding the fact that these very members have been on every occasion, as they are now, ap- parently within earshot of my voice. At the same time the lobby of the chamber nas been crowded with numbers of citizens who are here with complaints in reference to corporation ordinances and other public mat- ters, These members are willing enough to draw their salaries at the Comptroller's office. but they are not so willing to attend to the duties they have assumed, I trust, Mr, Clerk, that you will take it upon yourseli to notify the absentees that it 18 their duty te attend the meeting of this Board which 1s to take place next Monday. If that is not sufficient to bring them here I suggest that the Corporation Counsel be conferred with to ascer- tain whether he cannot take the necessary steps to have the seats of these members declared vacant. I contend that here, as in the Legislature, where there is a public duty to be performed and a salary paid ‘for its performance, members who persistently and wiltully evade and shirk their duty are in con- tempt, and lable to be treated as in contempt cases. These gentlemen, when they were in a ma- jority, were always ready to assemble here to carry through their objects and schemes; but now that they feel that they are about to be a minority they wiliully absent themselves; and I suggest that some means be employed to compel their at- poets 80 that the public business shall not suffer.’ ‘The Clerk then announced thet he would see that the absentees were notified, and the Board was then declared adjourned until Monday next. — RURNILORE.
