Sefior Castelar said the troubles, dificulties and perils of the nation were increasing. The repub- licans, while struggling to establish the Republic, were united, but after they had aehieved victory were divided, because an ideal always exists. The present government represents @ solid reality, and the opposition rep- resents an ideal. He brilliantly traced the history of democracy, and deciared that the death of the Republic would be the sign of the death of liberty, and that the generation would be infamous which achieved liberty and failed to preserve it. Iam a federalist, he said, but madness rends Spanish nationality while Italy and Germany are becoming more united. He reviewed the public life of M. Theirs, which, he said, was @ life of warfare, In conclusion Sefior Castelar invoked Divine pro- tection to save the liberty and integrity of Spain. Heavy Reinforce its to the Carlist Siege.

Yesterday afternoon there was a meeting of the Supervisors’ Special Committee, appointed to in- vestigate the charges of excessive charges for board against Mr. Williams, the republican Sheriff! of Kings county, which were preferred by Supervi- sor Coe, of the Thirteenth ward, at a recent meet- ing of the Board, The mecting was held in the Supervisors’ room, there being present, besides the Messre, Coe, Cotterell and Ryder, Assistant Dis- trict Attorney Levi Faron and several members of the Board of Supervisors and Aldermen, The spec- tators in the lobby were not numerous. Ex-District Attorney Samuel D, Morris appeared for the Sherif, who was present and earnestly watched the progress of the investigation. The Chairman of the committee, Mr. Coe, occupied the chair. SHERIFF ARAS G. WILLIAMS testified under oath that the vouchers for February are details which he left with his jailer; he could not say that he knew where they are; he had never seen the commitments or vouchers since ey were in the hands of the clerk who makes out the bnii; Jt is not true that {ood Jefy by one prisoner is given to Ancther. ie Sar oe Bupervisor Cov=i imténd to prove that lie has not bought food endugh to hdve furnisned the number of prisoners which he has charged for: Mr, Morris, bis counsel, objected to the question, as it was not material, Tho question was con- sidered proper, and Mr. Williams answered that he did not know exactly of his own knowledge what quality of food was furnished, MR, HOWARD 0, CONRADY was then examined, When: asked by Supervisor Coe if he had the vouchers or commitments with him, he replied he bad not, They had, he said, been burned, Supervisor Coe—Then I must get at this matter ina different way. How much meat do you give the prisoners ? » Conrady—I give them three-fourths of a pound of meat every othor day. The witness then proceeded to describe the amount of food. The loaves of bread varied in size; they were not uniform; some loaves weighed two and a half pounds and some weighed ten pounds. The loaves weighing two and @ haff pounds were cut in four Resse! and larger loaves were cut in five or six Supervisor Coe—When a prisoner is sent to jail ei baad ata a hn poaigroe and a ‘ady—Aiter Vy e and mak- ing a record of i I turn himeoute id Supervisor Coe—Then it is not for the purpose of charging # day’s board for him ? Mr. Conrady—No, sir; when a man was brought there witness considered bim in jail whether he ‘Was put in a cell or not, and alter the pedigree was taken he was turned out; this was always done; the county was charged thirty-five cents for each com- mitment and seventy-five cents for board, making $110; never charged two days’ board for a prisoner committed for one cars when a prisoner was sent in on the 1st and discharged on the 10th that was considered ten days aud so charged; George Stewart was sent to lail on the 2d ana discharged on the 2d; he was charged for two days, but this Mr. Conrady explained as a ciericai error. Supervisor Coe—You state you never charged two days’ board for the a Eee aeae of a person on the same day. When did William Crummy go into jail; look on the 6th of April? Witness—Ho went in on the 6th and out on the 7th of April, and was charged two days’ board; he then returned on the 7th and was discharged on the 16th inst., for which he was charged ten days; Julia Fitzpatrick went in on the 13th and out on the 14th of April, for which two days’ board was charged; she was sent to Court on the 14th and, returoing, she was retained there until the 23d; two commitments were charged for, Supervisor Coe—Your rule is to charge for two separate commitments when a prisoner comes in on one day and out on the next lor examination ? ‘itness—Yes, sir. e Counsel for the Sherif explained that by ref- erence to the law it would be seen that the two copmmnitments were entirely different, and hence this course was correct. Supervisor Coe—Fromethe 18th to the 23d, how foany days is that? ieee eaten jupervisor COO—ANG YOU have charged fourteci: days. uy be og8e if Tamas Quigley eho went in on the 27th of April and out on the 26th, and Teack on the same day, Was he not discharged on May 7, and ten ’ board charged? Witness replied in tue affirmative, as was also the cage with the imprisonment of John Bourk, who was received on the 6th, discharged on the same day, and brought back again on a ten days’ commitment; he was discharged on the 14th instant, and ten ’ board was charged. ry Steadman was received on the 4th instant, discharged on the same day, brought back and discharged on the 14th instant. Tey days’ board was charged. John McCormick was received on the 11th instant, discharged on the 12th, came back the same day, was Ra on the 28d, and ten days’ board was charged for him, John McCormack was received on the 26th of May, discharged on the same day and brought back to jail, where he remained until June 4, Ten days’ board was charged the county. WHAT THE JAIL COOK SAY3, John Armstrong, the cook employed at the Ray- mond street jail, was the next witness called, and, being duly sworn, testified that the bread, which was made into ordinary sized loaves, was cut u) into five slices for breakfast and ponpery on fis! days it was cut into six pieces and distributed to the prisoners; for the men at work, hali men and men who were very hungry an extra picce of bread was furnished; witness had cut it so for the last three Sheriffs; the men in the kitchen hand in the food to the prisoners, and witness filled the pans and put up all the meais; about 250 yen day are thus delivered; keep no record of how met are fed, and can’t say whether tho number of pans has been as low as 175 pans a@ day; the female prisoners get between 60 and 70 pans @day; have been cook in the jail under Sheriffs Campbeul and Walter, and the prisoners are better taken care of now under any previous sheriffs, This closed the taking of testimony, and Sheriff! Williams, addressin, jupervisor Coe, said that he wagted to be heard in this matter as carly as pos- sibfe, and he hoped phat, when ead got through with it, he would satisfy as weil as every man ae he had acted properly in the discharge of his uty. The Chairman replied that he hoped the Sheriff would be able todo this, and that, if he had done him a wrong, he would gladly apologize to him. If, on the other hand, he proved the charges, the Sherif! must take the consequences. With regard to hurrying the investigating committee in tue matter, he did not think that they would tncon- venience themseives. He regretted that the vouchers and commitments had been burned. The Counsel explained that it bad been customary for the past thirty ie an to destroy these papers, which accumulated rapidly, and were of no use, not being part of the records.

The Mayor always likes to help the weak against the “fearful odds” that at times beset them, and so he sent for Captain Leary, the quiet and vigilant little officer in command of the City Hall precinct, and had a conferencg with him on the subject, The result was that the erring husband wag induced to make an affidavit, and upon a Warrant issued in accord, ange therewith Captain Leary was instructed to arrest Redmohd McManus and Samuel Stranss, of the forbs house No. 102 Chatham street, an Gus Robbing, Cornelius Gitien, Latham Jone’ an Michael Knevels, all ; at HAILING FROM THR “JUNGLE,” No. 61 BoWery.

Ac- cordingly, these joustera in the tournament of checks were brought before the Mayor in bis private office yesterday afternoon, They Were a very fair looking set of men and might doubtless earn decent livelyhoods, if they would. Most of them were young mea, none of them had reached middle life, and McManus wore a four or five carat stone on his shirt front, Gillen sported @ very fair sort of @ diamond of perhaps threo carats, finely cut, and Knevelg had a very pretty Uttle “‘apark” also. None of them, however, were dressed in the “loud! style of the conventional “gambolier.”” The gentlemen bowed to the Mayor very courte- ously, and then all hands, except his Honor, laughed—quietly, of course. The Mayor requested his secretary, Mr. Wilder, to read THE AFFIDAVIT, which set forth that on July 8 last the deponent» Henry Whitstone, married Anna Strauss, and that at divers times preceding and subsequent to that date he had obtained from her various sums of Money, amounting in the aggregate to $700, to- @ether with a gold watch and chain and an ame- thyst ring, with a view to investing said money and the proceeds of the sale of the jewelry in some business for their mutual support and livelihood ; that deponent also combined with said sums cer- tain moneys of his own, and that at various times he was induced, through the representa- tions “certain — evil companions” (here ane ea aug ‘ of Piao a ance fe sott smile ry is nd at gambling in the game of ‘faro;” thaton or about July 4 he was induced to visit the house No. 51 Bowery, kept NA orge Hall and Michael Knevels; that he here HH ed atagame known as “Jaro,” until he lost he sum of $200, one “DOMINICK’!
