‘ BROOKLYN'S GREAT ROBBERY, Deputy Treasurer Rodman Ar- raigned for Embezzlement, Bail Fixed at $50,000, but the Bonds- men Not Forthcoming. The Prisoner Committed to the Common Jail. Denial of Defatcations in the Tax Collector's Office and Board of City Works. WHAT THE MAYOR PROPOSES TO DO, Ex-Treasurer McLaughlin, of the Fire Department, Called to Account. Marwin T. Rodman, the ex-Deputy City Treasurer, ex-Secretary of the Brooklyn Trust Company, is now realizing the full force of the Scriptural warning, “The way of the trantgressor is hard."’ He is con- Mined as a common feln in the Kings County Jail. Yesterday morning, between eight and nine clock, he was driver from his comfortable brown stone residence in Unien street to Judge Delmar’s Court, Butler street, near Court. He did not ap. pear particularly dowicast as he walked into the hall of justice and tovk aseat near the bench by the side of his counsel, Colonel Wood. He was neatly attired in a blak eloth coat and vest, gray pants and black tig Shortly after his arrival Mayor Powell and Oqporation Counsel De Witt entered and oceupied seats within the rail. Rod- man bowed graciously to both officials. ‘THE PRISONER ARRAIGNED. * ‘The prisoner was then arraigned before the bar, ‘when Colonel G T, Wood, his counsel, in behalf of ‘thus client, waifed examination, and said they de- sired to give ball in a reasonable-amount and were ready to perfec bail either there or at the District Attorney's offbe, or at the chambers of the Su- preme Court. ‘The prisone’, through his counsel, then pleaded not guilty. ‘The counsel then urged the Court to fix the ball atareasonabe amount, as “he is a man without any means of his own, and is dependent entirely upon his frimds, and his health is such that if he ‘were incarce’ated in prison it might jeopardize his Ife.” Tweny-five thousand dollars, he urged, ‘would be auple security for any Judge in Court to @emand in acase of this kind. THE CORPRATION COUNSEL ON PUBLIC PLUNDER, Mr. Willign C. De Witt opposed the motion, say- ing:—In rejly to what has been said on the other mide, I degre to say that there is to be taken into onsideraton, first, the character of the offence. ‘Phere is m offence I can think of to which the rigors of fe law should be applied more rigorously than onedf this charaeter, which has all the ele- ments oflarceny, together with those ofa flagrant Dreach o' trust. The sum, as the gentleman has waid, or ather as he has not said, ought to be taken i:to consideration. If $140,000 of the people’s moneys have heen stolen that may aid in the mint of this prisoner, that fact should be comidered. The time is at hand when all Public onfidence is dead unless the whole power Of the criminal law can be hurled against those oMcias who plunder the public treasury. I don’t thinkjnat $25,000 is anywhere near sufficient ball im thicase. I think the bail should be at least $50,00 in amount, and that two sureties—men of ‘wealf—should be compelled to justify in double that mount. That is my view of thiscase, If Your Hono is justified in sending to jail a humble in- aivid@l who trespasses one step upon the rights of persom) property simply under the power that is vestedin the criminal law, how much greater and surer hould be the grip of the arm of the criminal law on tose officials who combine together to de- stroy th: credit of a great city on whose credit the riy of the people of that city largely de- pene! ‘he counsel jor Rodman again interceded ra rediction of bail, but the Court was inexor- able, and set the amount down at $50,000, which Judge Delnar said was ‘‘not too much bail to re- guire in tus case.” The bondsmen were further required t justify in double that amount, ‘HE VOLUNTARY EXAMINATION. ‘The voluitary examination was then taken, as follows :— wr, Demar—What is your name? iman—Marvin T. Rodman. Judge Deluar—How old are you? Rodman— am forty-five. ps Delnar—Where were you born? Rodman—h Massachusetts. Judge Delmar—Where do you live? Bodman—A4 375 Union street, this city. Judge Deluar—What 1s Kal occupation? Rodman—Vell, sir (smiling), I have no occupa- tion at presen. Nothing at ail at present. I have been broughtup a banker, however, Judge Delmr—Have you anything to say in re- to the chirge preferred against you? Rodman—Y¢, sir; 1 am not guilty. Delmge—Not guilty? n—No sir, ‘The prisonerwas then driven off in a coach to the office of the District Avtorney. AT THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE Mr. Rodman wes show) into the private room, where he awaited the return of his counsel, who ‘went in search « City Jidge Neilson, and obtained from him # writ ef habeis corpus in order to con- ‘yey the prisoner before jhe Judge in Chambers, to ave the bail reduced t what they considered a reasonable figure—$25,00. Three o'clock was the time fixed for the arguient, and his lawyers and friends were rushing Wildly about in quest of bondamen for their precious client. t haif- three they wut im an appearance Betore the Judge, and /esought him to reduce the bail, as it was excessit and their client was “not @ well man.” A leter irom Dr. Mitchell, family medical attendant of {odman, was read to confirm the delicacy of M. T Rodman’s health. He had mever had the most rmote notion of absconding, and his appearance wuld be insured on less bail than $50,000 if the Jdge would but concur in that view of the case. District Attorney fullen opposed the motion of the counsel, and Juge Neiison lent a favorable ear to Lim and denied fe application for reduction of bail. It did not sem to His Honor that it was fixed at an excessie amount, but “it was rather small and moderat under the circumstances.” “But,” pleaded Olonel Wood, MR.RODMAN 18 SICK, and confinement wil be injurious to him.” “This is a Christan land, and the jails are fur- ed with plags for the sick,” retorted the by Judge. ot in this comty, Judge,” said the Colonel. “Lam sorry, tin, to hear that,” said the Judge, ‘as he made his eit from the apartment.

In & conversation with Tax Oollector Lemuel Burrows yeserday, relative to the outside talk about @ defapation in his office, he said :— “I Know {ne defalcation in my office, and if NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, AUGUST 31, 1873.—QUADRUPLE SHERT. 7 there had been any I think I would know it. Such Tumors might be set afloat concerning any office ofthe city government, and the author of these stories, lam sure, was prompted merely by a de- sire to get up a sensation.” “Is there any investigation of the books being made in your office?” “There is no investigation being made, except what we are making ourselves, We are writing up those books from 1841 to 1873, so that we may be able to make the returns to the Register of Arrears in accordance with the new charter.” “Has there eyer been any investigation of the /books by an expert ??? “There has never been an investigation except what we are doing.” “And there is no defalcation or deficiency ?"” “There is a deficiency, and probably it will reach two millions, but it is for uppatd taxes. This, of course, Cannot be helped, and it has existed for years. Ifa man fails to pay his taxes his property is seized. A market cannot always be found for the property, and until the account is settled there is adeficiency. 1am willing to give any informa- tion at any time concerning the affairs of my oflice. WHAT AN EX-EMPLOYE OF THE TAX OFFICE SAYS, Mr. Thomas D, Moscrop, an ex-employé in the office of the Tax Jollector, and now the Deputy Register |. of Arrears, when called upon by the writer yeater- day cheerfully explained the routine of the work in the Collector’s office and the diMoulty of carry- ing on any systematic robbery without beset “What position, Mr. Moscrop, did you occupy the office of the Collector ?” “I was general clerk in the bill department.” ae is the regular routine of the work in the omce “fne taxpayer, on entering, obtains a bill for the amount of taxes due on nis prveerey. Having obtained this, he goes to the cashier, who receives his money ahd sees that it 1s credited. ‘Then he asses it to the entrv clerk, and the total amount is entered on the cash tickler (this is a kind of check book), ‘The items are then entered on the several cash books.” “What is done with the money received ?”” “The money received is deposited with the City Treasurer the same day.” “That is in accordance with the new charter ?” “Yes, sir; the new charter provided that should be done,’? “Is there any auditor who goes over the accounts or books “The oash books are taken the next day by the clerks, and they call off the tax roll or a:sessment Toll, lots and index by folto, lot and block numbers, and the total amount paid on them, and then the footings are compared, to see if they correspond. These are stamped as paid. If the two amounts correspond—the amount in the cash book and the amount on the tax roll—then the property, as stamped, is credited that day.” “Ig there any opportunity for a defatcation?” “There is DO ytd ad for a defaication what- ever, and for this reason—every lawyer of the city of Brooklyn, every real estate dealer and searcher, is constituted a private detective. They are all the time upon the track of the Collector to see if the taxes are patd. No piece of property changes hands without a search being made to see if there is anything against it, Unless it is stamped paid there must be something wrong. It would be im- possible for any defalcation to go on without being discovered.” “Where are the books kept?” “Tn the Tax Collector's oMice there is also a check provided under the new charter. The Tax Collector must make returns to us of all the taxes remaining unpaid. He makes the returns as the warrants expire. When the Common Council con- firms the assessment then the warrants are drawn. The clerk makes these returns datly, weekly or monjhly. The Board of City Works are making returns to us now. ‘path made returns to us up to Monday of property sold for unpaid taxes which has not been redeemed from 1859 to 1871 in- clusive, and which amounts to a little over $98,000, Any person who wishes to redeem his property must come here and get a bill and pay the amount.” JNJURING THE CITY WITHOUT CAUSE. The President of the Brooklyn Trust Company, Alderman Ropes, said yesterday in regard to the assertion that the total amount of the defalcation in the city funds had not yet been overed, “The reports that the total amount of delalcation in the city funds has not been discovered I deem to be very wrong, as I believe that the whole truth is known. The examination made by Mr. Warren in the Treasurer’s books was thorough and com- 1ete, and embraced all the amounts paid to the reasurer, The books.were also compared with those of the various banks and found to tally. Ii there were any other defalcations they must have been discovered, for when payments were made to the Treasurer by any officer of the city, receipts were given therefor and duplicates filed with the Comp- troller, so that the total amount paid to the Treas- urer i8 known and has been found to agree with the deposits, except in the sum of Rodman’s de- falcation, which has now been made good. al! ramors and statements to the contrary, Mr. Warren’s included, very wrong, and calculat injure the city without cause.” WHAT MAYOR POWELL 8aY8. The Mayor remarked yesterday that he had heard of no deficiencies in any department, and he did not believe there were any beyond that relat- ing to the Treasurer’s account. His reason for causing the arrest of Rodman was that there were Tumors abroad in the community that men of standing and position in the city were implicated in fraud, ‘and if chat is the case,” said His Honor, “I propose to have them exposed to the public and punished, if guilty, equally with Rodman. As far as my Official conduct is concerned I don’t pro- pose to screen any one that ts guilty.”’ EX-TREASURER HUGH M’LAUGHLIN IN DIFFICULTY. The ex-Treasurer of the Brooklyn Fire Depart- ment, Hugh McLaughlin, was summarily called to an account to explain ‘‘a little matter” by the fol- lowing note of the Comptroller yesterday :— Comrrnouten’s Orric: Buoomueny August, 90, 1873. 4 Hoon McLavemum, Esq., Ex-Treasurer Fire Depart- ment: ent :— Sin—I have reliable information in my possession showing that you bave appropriated to you own use an amount exceeding $8,000 of city money, consisting of in- terest on the deposits of the Fire Department Fund. By Feturning this amount at once to the city treasury you ‘will saye trouble, and oblige, yours respectiully, F, A. SCHROEDER, Comptroller. Mr. McLaughlin, who i: nephew of the Registe! the former democratie “Boss,” when questioned to what he had to say in relation to the charges of the Comptroller, replied: “When the Fire Depart- ment was first organized, and until last year, I used to draw the fund trom the Comptroller in va- rious sums, during the first six or seven months of the year, deposit it in the Brooklyn Trust Company, and draw against it each month as required, abou’ bpd er month. I drew the principal of the nd and disbursed it all, as the books will show. As to the interest, I decline to say anything at present, because I have not yet closed my account as Treasurer of the department and made my re- port. When I do that, if there is any deficiency it will be time to talk. I decline to say anything more. AN INCIDENT IN THE LATE VOYAGE OF THE STEAMER ARNDT, The following interesting account, kindly far- nished by Captain Felberg, of the steamer EF. M. Arndt, on being requested to do so, will be read with pleasure, as verifying the reported incident regarding the use made by the Arndt of the weather predictions of the 9th inst, He says:— lleit Havre at eight o’clock P. M., on July 8, with the steamer EF, M. Arndt, and on the 14th lost the screw, so that nothing but the shaft and nut was left me, At tne time of the accident our position ‘was latitude 47 deg. 14 min. and longitude 34 deg, 12 min, west of Greenwich, and [ continued our voyage under sail. With the exception of one day we had changeable winds from the west, compel- ling me to change my course frequently. The winds were at times fresh and high, with foggy weather, until the 10th of August, when I spoke the steamer Ville au Havre, Captain Surmont, in latitude 40 deg. 68 min. and longitude 66 deg. 17 min., who gave me @ copy of the New Yore Heratp of August 9 The “Probabilities” of the Washington Signal Ofice contained in this paper Predicted northerly winds and high pressure for New England. This inducea me to keep a north- erly course as much as possible, and on the 13th of August | was fortunate enough to reach the harbor of New York. Wind and weather from August 10 to 14:—10th and 11th, calm at first; towards evening light wind from the north; at midnight, north-northeast.

Evening of August 13, at six o'clock, dropped anchor off Staten Isiand. ©. FELBERG, Captain of the steamer E. M. Arndt, FATAL BLEVATOR OASUALTY, Coroner Young was yesterday called to the Morgue to hold an inquest on the body of Michael Malloy, 35 years of , & locksmith, who while at work at Central Hotel, Broadway, on the ‘1th Inntcwas truck onthe Read by the oy Id fracture o1 the skull, was MICHAEL C. BRODERICK. ‘The Son Slayer Not Yet Freed from the Meshes of the Law—The Family Tell Two Storics—The District Attorney Re- fuses to Take Bail—The Grand Jury to Investigate the Case. The District Attorney, Mr. Benjamin K. Phelps, is now determined to prosecute the matter of the Broderick homicide to the end, and on Monday morning the matter will come up before the Grand Jury. The circumstances of the case will be easily re- membered. On Friday week last Michael C. Brod- erick, im the tenement house No, 81 Carmine Street, in a scuffle stabbed his sons John and James in the presence of the whole family. James died almost instantly. Jobn survived, The HERALD contained @ full account of the murder and detailed minutely the circumstances of the crime as far as they could be obtained from the eye Witnesses. It appeared from what was then said that Michael Broderick, the father, was being abused by and abusing his mother-in-law about a button being sewed on his pants, when his sons interferea to prevent him. The father then seized @ slat of the bed to inflict chastisement upon the Sons, and they united to deprive him of it. In the scuffle which took place Michael drew a pocket knife and stabbed both his sons, with the result already told. ‘The family was seen, and also Michael when a prisoner in the Tombs, on the after- noon of the same day. He corroborated all that had been said at the house, and only supple- mented the account by saying that James was a good boy and John was a bad one. On the Monday followig the inquest took place before Coroner Young. Mr. Schwab appeared for the prisoner. All the family was present to testify except the grandmother (mother-in-law of the prisoner), Each witness gave a very succinct but altogether new account of the murder and the Scenes which surrounded it. THE OLD STORY was altogether altered, and instead of the father assaulting the sons with a slat, it appeared from the evidence that one of the sons had taken a loaded club and the other a table knife and had first assaulted the father, he only taking the siat to defend himsell, and, finding that Insufficient, used the knife. Accurding to the evidence adduced it was clearly a case o/ seli-deience, and nothing else. The yd brought in a verdict to that effect, adding hat in their judgment the father believed himself to be in danger of bis life when he struck the blows. A motion was then made to admit the prisoner to bail, and Coroner Young promised to do so, saying he would fix the amount the next morning. It appears that during the afternoon of that day Coroner Young went to see the District Attorney about the matter, acquainting him with the verdict of the jury. District Attorney Phelps thereupon objected in the most strenuous manner, calling the attention Of the Coroner to the GREAT DISCREPANCY which existed between the HERALD's account of the story taken on the spot and the testimony in the cage at the inquest. Mr. Phelps said that the discrepancy was too great not to give the evidence an appearance of untruthfulness which would make bim hesitate long before admitting the pris- oner to bail. The newspapers gave an account of @ brutal murder; the evidence showed homicide in self-defence. The was too serious not to be investigated. Michael Broderick was therefore kept in the Tombs (where he is now), and the District Attorney yesterday sent letters to the principal newspapers in the city, asking that the reporters who wrote up the mur- der be permitted to give their testimony before the Grand soy as to how and where they got their facts. This examination will take place on Mon- ony at eleven o'clock. in the account given of the inquest in the oe it was mentioned that the whole thing re & SUSPICION OF PREVIOUS REHEARSAL that was too palpable to be overlooked. The mother-in-law, wit whom all the trouble began, and who would not have been as likely to side with the prisoner as the other members of the family would, was exciuded trom the in- quest. Her beapeae te being the most important of all, would certainly have been a link against Broderiok. But she was not present. It then looked as if the family, feeling that Broderick was their main support and that in nowise would it better matters to have him convicted, all agreed to tell a story which there was nobody to coutra- dict, but which, singularly enough, not one of them told on the morning of the murder. Soim- portant a fact as the sons assaulting the lather, one ‘with a table knife and the other with a loaded club could not possibly have been forgotten by all of them and aiterwards remembered, The manner in which all testified AGAINST THE DEAD MAN as being & miracle of depravity, while in the morning all had agreed to say he was a model son, ‘was quite striking. The demeanor of the son John at the inquest was also notewurthy. He was de- scribed by all as being a terrible character, and the father inveighed against him unceasingly be- fore the jury, while, the jury once out, John went over to where the fatner sat and had a pleasant chat with him, both evidently chuckling over the manner in which they had hoodwinked the jury. Tne prisoner’s counsel, seeing the impropriety of the scene, motioned John to go back to his seat. ‘The spectators at the inquest all seemed to think it a good joke, and characterized it as ‘‘a put-up Job.” These facts, and others too numerous to mention, give the story of the family an untrust- worthy look—enough 80, probably, to yet convict Broderick of his crime. This the Grand Jury will decide upon Monday. NOT WANTED IN NEW YORK. Johnny Irving, the Burglar, Hiding in Hoboken at the Time Mr, Nathan Was Murdered—His California Confession ‘ Simply a Thief’s Lie to Get Transpor- tation To This City, Where He Expects Protection, as Heretofore. Inquiries at Police Headquarters yesterday, and conversations with several well informed members of the force, prove that but the very smallest at- tention is paid in police circles to the pretended confession of the thief, Johnny Irving, of his com- plicity in the Nathan murder. But these conversa- tions give rise to the conviction that in the days of the Ring this same weil known pro- fessional burglar and robber was efficiently protected by certain men then high in authority, and when his crimes were trackd home to him by incontestable proof, which should have consigned him to State Prison, he was allowed to slip out of the meshes of justice and continue his career of preying upon the property of honest citizens. How unlikely it is that he was concerned in the Nathan murder may be judged from the simple fact that on the next day thereafter he was arrested in Hobo- ken, at the request of Captain Joseph Petty, of the Fifth precinct, for A BURGLARY IN THE BOWERY and another in Lispenard street. Unless he had the facalty of carrying on a number of “jobs” at once, he could hardly have been engaged in the bloody crime opposite the Fifth Avenue Hotel and at the same time hiding in Hoboken to avoid arrest for these robberies downtown. Irving, though doubtl ess guilty of the burglaries, as was suscep- tible of clear proof, was discharged on bail ; and when subsequently called did not respond. Bis surety was @ noted receiver of stolen goods. The bond was estreated, but never prosecuted. In the same summer, earlier, lie was shot while discovered in a house breaking enterprise in Brooklyn, and after his wounds healed he was enabled to escape irom mond Street Jail. Superintendent Matsell judges that, being in danger of getting his just deserts in California, Irving now wishes to be transferred to New York, trusting for final escape to influence similar to that which has so potently screened him heretofore. Mr. Irving is NOT ENOUGH WANTED HERE for the police to incur the expense of his transpor- tation. But if his native enterprise should inauce him to come back there are several indictments pending against him, ana he may count on a prompt reception, and that yd effort would be made to ensure his prolonged residence in this State. In regard to the memorandum book once carried Mr. Nathan, to which Irving refers, Ee it may have found its way into 8 hands without his having anything to do the tragedy. He has the reputation of being habitually ready, when ina “pinch,’’ to “give his pals away,’ and bis shrewd eye may have seen in such @ book, with names and orks convenient instrument to serve his purposes if the necessity should occur. HE HAS UTTERLY FAILED to convince the New York police that he can be useful in sotving the mystery which for three years has resisted all their efforts to pierce it. His Statement that he was m at Irvington is thoroughly exploded. Captain Warman, the, Irvington officer, stated yesterday that HE MADD, Tho wWae dow of Washington irviog rday as @ nephew o! did not bear that relation. Th Irvi yo says that has the impression that in the summ 1870 @ painter named Irving came he ed there for some time. This , the burglar, occupation simply @ cl for arr ng Certain!; with the gent ami dd With the pretty Ee on the Hudson, and almost as cer- inly, it hought, he is in his pretendea contes sion the same thief the have long Keown him to be, another ? LEXINGTON AVENUE SYNAGOGUE ‘Woman’s Influence in the Family and im the Church—Seasonable Advice for Jewish Ladies—Sermon by Rev. Dr. Huebsch, A week ago the Réy, Dr, Huebsch, rabbi of this synagogue, preached a sermon particularly for men, preparatory to the holiday seasen, Yester- day he delivered a discourse more especially to the ladies, in antic'!pation of the same events, His text was 1 Kings, xiv., 5—‘‘And the Lord said unto Abijah, Behoid, the wile of Jerovboam cometh to ask @ thing of thee for her son, for he is sick; thus and thus shalt thou say unto her; for it shall be when she cometh in that she shall feign herself to be another woman.” Religion, the Doctor said, is the supporting staff of human frailty. The weak, the suffering, the needy ex- perience most its soothing and consoling influence. The strong and apparently independent may be enticed to dispense with religion and to rely on their Own power rather than on the mercy of the Most High for saivation, But the more dependent and helpless are moved by the consciousness of their condition to seek protection and aid from One whose might is never failing, and whose love is everlasting and ever ready to descend upon the meek. Hence, while man may be inclined to rebel against God and to ignore His com- mands, woman’s meek and submissive heart opens cheerfully to ali the hopes and good promises which inure to @ true and undaunted faith. When the Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone, I will make a elp meet for bim,” the merciful intention of God was not confined to the worldly comfort which man should derive from association with his lawful wile. God destined her asa mes- senger of undivided peace for the son of earth; her task was to sweeten his life by that loving care which makes @ mau's home a delight for hin and at the same time the gentleness o1 her mind was to exert a benelicent influence upon his ruder nature, and so she was to become a telp for him even in_ his spiritual affairs. A truly pious woman is trresist- ible. She makes us turn to goodness, gentleness, meekness and true love; she brings us back to the source of all these qualities—to religion. Well armed, indeed, is the woman who in the fight of life makes religion her weapon. What else could compensate for her deficieucy and make her strong in her weakness? By what other means could she ingure her own conténtment and the happiness of those inseparably connected with her heart? A mighty queen, without belie! in God, is poor and forsaken; but the poor and forsaken, with a de- voted trust in the All-merciful, she is elevated to the most noble kingdom—female ex. cellency. Jeroboam wus the ruler over ten tribes of the people of Israel. Policy and inclination made him recede irom the belief of his ancestors and institute new idolatrous religion. We do not read that lis wife made any effort to turn his mind in the right path and to bring him back to the Lord God of Israel. Happy in ner place as a queen con- sort, surrounded by terrestrial glory, she followed rather the wickedness of her husband and forgot or neglected to be what she was destined for—nis guardian angel in the time oftemptation. Little she thought that there might come a moment when she would gladly exchange all her splendor and great- ness for one ray of religious light. But sooner or later such a time comes to us all, and it came for this woman also. Dear as the crown is to the ueen, much dearer is her child to the mother, ler crown was safe, but her child was in danger, and the mighty queen was a despairing beggar. When affliction visits a heart wherein God dwells then prayer is at hand and consolation is not far, for the Lord is nigh unto all those who call on Him in truth. But aiiction in an impious heart is like a combustion in stubble, where there is no water to quenca the raging flame, What would = this woman have ven if, in toe abundance of her grief, she couid have poured out her soul before the Lord like licted Hanna, who prayed and found con- solation’ Jerovoam’s wife was not prepared to meet God in her afiliction ; she wanted consolation, and went to steal it under a disguise, She ap- proached the man of God and feigned herself to be another woman; but the Lord’s eye 1s all-seeing and He cannot be deceived, The Prophet's answer was, “Why feignest thou thyself to be For 1 am sent to thee with heavy ‘tidings.”’ Consolation was denied to her, and the woman of the world returned with despair in her heart, experiencing the truth that in the Lord only is our strength. uver against this picture the Doctor set the por- trait of the noble Shunamite, as drawn im IL Kings, iv., and showed his hearers the ideal of e Sogmmerieg woman. In his-application the Doctor urged the ladies of his congregation to ex- ert their infiuence in their houses that the fear of God might reign there supreme, and that by their example their husbands and children might feel themselves moved to repair to the sanctuary of the Lora, where there is the living source of God’s word, inspiring with goodness and piety all who listen to it in earnestness, humility and faith. The sermon evidently made a deep impression upon the iemale orld of tne congregation, for whom it was intended, A NEW JEWISH SYNAGOGUE. The Israciites on the Uptown March—A Jump from Norfolk Street to Sixty- third Street—Sketch of the New Buitld- ing of the Congregation Anshi Chesed— A Radical Rabbi Engaged as Minister. The uptown march of religious bodies has, within 8 few years past, affected the Israelites as much as any other sect or denomination in the city, and, by and by, there are likely to be more synagogues up town than down. The Congregation Bnai Jeshurun have located themselves in West Tuirty- fourth street, near Sixth avenue, and are ministered to by Rev. Dr. Vidaver, who receives a salary of $5,000 a year. The Congregation Adas Jeshurun have settled in | Thirty-ninth street, near Seventh avenue, and have Rev. Dr. Einhorn, one of the most advanced Judaic reformers in the city, to be their minister, and to whom they pay $6,000 a year.

Among the members of the Itallan Opera com- pany to appear with Mme. Nilsson, at the Academy of Music, are two whom we have not yet seen— Maurel and Del Puente. Signor Victor Maurel was born in Marseilies, and became a pupil at the Con, servatoire de Musique in that city, winning the first prize for singing at the age of seventeen. He made his début in opera in his native town, appear- ing in “William Tell.” Having attracted much notice among connoisseurs, ke was urged to complete hig musical studies at the Conservatoire in Paris, where he likewise obtained the first prize im singing. He was then engaged at the Grand Opera in Paris, and made a decided sensa- tion in the “rovatore.” He remained for two years at the Graud Opera, under the direction of Maestro Gevaert, and then, by the advice of the celebrated Italian composer, went to Italy for the further prosecution of his stadies. He appeared with great success at the San Carlo in Naples, and sang lor two seasons at Milan. He afterwards ful- filled successiul engagements in Florence, Kome, Venice, Trieste and Bvlogna, where he and Cam- anini made a marked impression in Wagner's Lohengrin.” Signor Maurel has just terminated an engagement in London, and has won trom the critics 01 that capital unqualified praise for his fine voice, his admirabie metnod, histrionic exceilence and effective stage appearance. In short, this artist is now in the zenith of his career, and his début in America will contribute greatly to the interest already excited in connection with the Spprpesning opera season, The repertoire ot Signor aurel is very extensive. His chief successes in London were in ‘William Tell,” ‘Linda’ “Faust.” In regard to Signor Guiseppe del Puente, the new baritone of the Strakosch troupe, we cannot (0 vetter than to present to our readers the following excellent biographical notice of him, which we translate trom /1 Mecenato of Rome :— aualeppe del Puente, who was so much admired during the last. Carnival and Lent season at the Theatre Apollo, 18 still quite a young man, and has already by iis suc- cesses all over italy acquired for himself a great reputation. He was born in Naples in 1843, of noble Spanish parentage. He received an excelfent mu- sica: education, and made his appearance upon the lyric stage, while still a youth, in Russia, where he sang with great suct tn several of the leading theatres. Anxieus to sing in his native country, he accepted an ment in Milan, and ig in the “Trovatore,” “Ballo in Maschera” and “Poliuto.”” He was highly appreciated by the public, and alter the conclusion of his engagement in Milan sang in Padua in “Gio- vanno d’Arco,” “Ballo in Maschera,” and ‘Robert. Devereux.” In Agram he sang in “Maria dt Rohan,” “Lucretia Borgia.” “krnani’ “and the “Ballo in Maschera” to the great satistaction of large and admiring audiences, One of the Agram journals writes :—"Of Signor del Puente, in the role of Ronate, no words can describe the Impression left by this admirable singer upon his audience. He charmed every one by bis perfect style and method. His limpid voice electrified the audience, who rapturously appianded him and bim several times before the — curtain.” In Pau, also, Signor del eute obtained marked successes in the “Vespri Siciltani,’’ “Rigoletto,” *lrovatore,” ucia,” “Barbiere,’”? “Linda,” “Elisire d’Amore” and “Ernani.” In Seville he appeared in the “Uguenotti,” “Poit- uto,” “Otello,” “Louise Mille and “Puritani.’’ After leaving Seville he visited Catanta, Geneva and Rome, im the last of which cities he sang tor two consecutive seasons, and would have been re- engaged but lor tne jact that Mr. Maurice Stra- kosch had previously secured his services. He san, this season in London at Her Majesty’s Opera, an in the provinces in “Don Giovanni,” “Faust,” “frovatore”’ and “Rigoletto,” and became a great fayorite with the English public. Signor del Puente has an extensive repertoire, a superb voice, and a fine stage presence, ani will doubtless become @ great Javorite with the American public, GRAND PLAG PRESENTATION. At the grand demonstration and flag presenta- tion which is to take place under the auspices of the St. Joseph’s Young Men’s Benevolent Associa- tion at Jones’ Wood on Monday, September 1, a glorious time is expected.

The proceeds of the day will go to @ purely charitable purpose, Music will be fur- nished by Monahan’s band, and every care will be taken to make the festivity a success, ALLEGED OUTRAGE ON A PERRYBOAT, Yesterday afternoon the Superintendent of the Jersey City ferry heard that a gross outrage had been perpetrated on one of the Desbrosses street boats about two o’clock on Friday morning. Thus far the occurrence is vouched for by only one man, ‘who avers that he was a passenger on board at the time, He says that there were many men in the ladies’ cabin, On one side sat a woman srpareaty respectable; two of the men in- sulted her, then put out the lights and outraged her. It i strange that neither the eye-witness nor the woman complained of the affair on reaching Jersey City, where OMcer Barry is constantly im attendance to arrest disorderly passengers. The deck hands seem to know nothing of such an event. Nevertheless, the very possi- bility of the perpetration of so dastardly a crime w les an immediate investigation. Captain ‘oolsey yesterday ordered an inquisition to be made on Monday.

The Mutuals and Atlantics played their seventh game this season on the Union Ground yesterday afternoon, in the presence of about six hundred spectators, The day was as fine as could possibly be desired and the ground was in excellent condi- tion; but, owing to the fact of the game having been inguficiently advertised the attendance was not so large as might have been expected, Boyd, of the Atlantics, Was absent on account of sickness, and Booth, late of the Resolutes, but now ¥ substitute on the Atiantic nine, supplied his ace. F Play was called at four P. M., the Matuals going first to the bat, and on a single base hit, aided by errors in the Atlantics’ fleiding, scored two runs. ‘The Atiantics were bianked, although Barlow led off with a fine line hit for a base. In the second inning the tables were turned, tne Mutuals being whitewashed and the Atiantics getting two runs on as many base hits. Hach club failed to score in the next two innings, but in the fifta the Mutuals added another run to their account and still heid their opponents downto two. The lead thus ob- tained by the New Yorkers was further increased in the sixth inning by another brace of runs, and although the Atiantics struggled hard they could not hit Matthews, and therefore could not score, In the seventh inning Eggler distinguished himself by making @ remarkably brilliant fly caten of a hard hit ball from Pabor’s bat. Gedney took sev- eral balls on the fy in a scientific style, and Start and Allison cach played their several positions to perfection. On the Atiantic side Bariow ana Dehi- maon Were the only ones who maintained their reputations as skillul ball players, the remainder of the nine engaging more or less in the “mufflag” business throughout tne entire game, The following 18 the score :— Washington.
