The latter challenged every juror who was a mem- ber of the Young Men’s Christian Association, The evidence on both sides having been vut in, coun- sel for defendants, in his address to the jury, Claimed that the books in question—one of which had been copyrighted by the United States—were not obscene, but ofa medical character, treating the subjects discussed from a medical point of view.

When the war with the South was in progress Mr. Simeon Draper acted as agent of the national government jor the sale of abandoned and contis- ated property sent from the Confederate States. ‘Under the law appertaining to such property Mr. Draper’s assistants, or some of them, seized a quantity of cotton, to the ownership of which a claim was set up by a Mr. Young, and the property ‘was subsequently sold in tnis city. Mr. Young has now sued the government in the United States Circuit Court of this district, before Judge Na- thaniel Shipman, to recover the value of the prop- erty, on the ground that the persons who seized it had no authority todo so. The case hag not yet concluded. The result of this trial will probably determine the fate of several other similar suits, Francis Sages and Bartholomew Rossi, two sallors, who had deserted from the French ship Augustine, were yesterday held by Commissioner Shields to await the action of the French Consul, and, on the requisition of the Consul, the sailors Were subsequently sent on board the ship in charge of a deputy marshal. - In reference to striking from the roll of attor- meys the name of Tweed, Ingersoll and Genet, orders to show cause why this should not be done were yesterday submitted by District Attorney Phelps to the Supreme Court, General Term.

SUPZEY.E COURT—GENERAL TERM The Brinkley Divorce Suit. Before Judges Davis, Brady and Daniels. The Brinkiey divorce case, which has been so long before the courts, was yesterday the subject of a protracted argument in this Court, It will be remembered that Juage Van Brunt, before whom the case was tried, took several months to arrive ata decision, but at length confessed his inability to do so, owing to the conflicting nature of the tes- timony, It was insisted on behalf of the detend- ants that when a case had been tried before a judge he must decide it, and that it could not en be taken beiore a jury. The Court took the papers. SUPREME COURT—TRIA' TE2M—PART 2. How and What the City Paid tor Two Horses. Before Judge Van Brunt.

Ment of the Corporation Counsel's Offices. Belore Judge Lawrence. ‘The Corporation Counsel tor some years past has occupied offices at no. 82 Nassau street, When Mr. O'Gorman went into office he took some addi- tional rooms at $3,500 further rent. The landlord failed to get his money and so brought suit against ‘the ciiy, in which the present Corporation Couusel allowed judgment to go by default. He has since, however, it seems, changed his mind, for applica- tion was made yesterday to.open the default and put in an answer. ‘The opposition was that ‘the rooms have been occupied by the city and that ‘the rent was reasonable.

Annie Leary, aged 104 years, with locks “as white as the ariven snow,” was sent to the island to be cared for by the Cemmissioners of Charities and Correction. Her history is sad and wonder- ful, Some 45 years ago she came to this country from Ireland, and was at one time well todo. Her daughters, three in number, have all married and settled down in this city. She was living with the youngest of her married children in Pell street for some time, and had made up her mind to die with her youngest cliid (only 66 years of age). The juvenile daughter, however, objected, and turned her oid mother out into the street. Some kindiy people took her into the nallwayof the house No, 9 Essex street, where she lay in a semi-con- scious state’ for about half an hour. Officer ‘Thomas Sullivan, of the Tenth precinct, who lives in the house, saw the uniortunate wo. and, after learning her history, took her belore Jus- tice Otterbourg and had her sent where she will get 2; least-shelter. A New Swindle with an Old Face. James R. Stewart, a youth of 16 summers, was arraigned on a charge of trying to pass a forged check, and discharged by the Judge, after receiv- ing a severe reprimand. It Sppeers that the boy answered the following advertisement ;— Wanted—An errand boy. Call, after 11 A. M., at 217 East Mth su No. 217 East Fourteenth street is part of an open lot, and, when the many boys who were looking for the number were trying to find out what it meant, fashionably dressed stranger passed along, and selecting the boy Stewart, asked him, “Did you reply to my advertisement?” The boy replied, “Yes.” ‘The strange gentleman took the boy along, and finally engaged him at $5 per week in “his law office down town.” He also gave the boy uw check for $280 on the Butcners and Drovers’ Bank, which he told him to get the money for, while he (the advertiser) would wait on the oppo- site corner for the money, having to see a friend im the meantime. The check, of course, was a forgery; and when Officer Daniels came to look for bim he was non est tnventus. The check is still awaiting an owner. Stabbed Him in the Thorax. Michael Fitzgibbon and John Gordon were com- mitted to await the injuries of Michael Brophy, who was in their company, and who was severely stabbed in the face and neck. Brophy was taken to Bellevue Hospital, where he now lies in a cniti- cal condition. The quarrel began, as usual, over whiskey. A Double Decker. William Graham was committed without bail on two charges yesterday. Catherine Bodalinsky, of No. 125 Stanton street, complained that he broke inio ber rooms and wasin the act of stealing everything therein, when she arrived home. She gave the alarm, and Officer Herrick gave chase and arrested Graham as_he was “making tracks.” Sophia Greenwood, of No. 319 Broome street, also made complaint that he had entered ner house and stolen over $500 worth of property and valu- ables.

W. &. Rogers is also named asa de- Jendant, but does not appear. The story of plain- tiff is to the effect that the money was Joaned on the statement of defendants that the mortgage was sound, they having examined it, The loan was procured by the defendants for their clients. the mortgage ec ag Proved to be worth- less, and, as plain’ egos, the defendants were aware of the fact.

Last May Mrs. Zhart took up with one Alexander Van Vort, and was married to him by a Methodist clergyman, ‘he referee found that tne defendant ig guilty of adultery and bigamy. SANITARY MATTERS. Ata meeting of the Board of Health held yester- day afternoon the following reports were re- ceived :— Nxw York, Jan The Sanitary Committee pecpecea submit the fol. loging report upon methods of rendering the newly ac. to the distribu- jon of, the laboring population of the city over a larger area, thereby relieving the over crowding in the tene- ment houge districts and providing heaithy houses tor the dependent classes :— The addition to the superficial area of New York of an amount of available contiguous territory equal to that originally comprised within its Limits 1s one of the most important and siguificant sanitary measures of the last half century. Whatever be'the commercial, eco- nomical or other aspects ot the question of such annexa- there can be no doubt that all those great interests which tend to promote the public health and turnish the perity have been immeas- urably enhanced. It brings under the jurisdiction of a single central authority neighboring communities whose mutual relations with the metropolis are so intimate ‘that they are tically @ single people so far as rds ace ABU pFotevtion. trea coutagion. Y mt is fact that terriiory occupied by a dense population may now have those sanitary works periormed which will render the soil hoalth(ul. London and Paris abroad, ud Philadelphia and Boston at home, have wisely added contiguous territory and communities, aud nae thereby immeasurably increased the general wel- fave of those cities aud suburban districts. Not only have ies been added to the metropolis, but mediate tendency of the laboring classes of the clty to soek residences in the newly acquired territory. Philadelphia affords a striking ex- ample of this dispersion of her population over the con- tiguous territory incorporated within the city limits, The newly acquired lands are comparatively abe and to this inducement tor each family to possess itsown homestead is added an immense system of railways, thus affording cheap if not rapid transit. It isto this feature of the addition te the city of New York oi terri tory equal in superficial area to the origina! island that the committee desires to call aitention. 1¢ is idle to ex- pect any diminution of the €uormous and an nually increasing pressure upon the tenement houses of the city except by some such exodus of the laboring classes as annexation has provided. Commerce has not oniy driven the poor trom tho First, Second, Third and Fitth wards, but 1s steadily encroach- Ing upon those wards now so' densely populatod—viz. the Fourth, Sixth, Seventh and sighth. Meantime the price of real estate in the more northern wards has so in- crease to render it doubtful if laborerscan ever gecure possession of houses on unoccupied lands, and equally doubttul it landlords will consent to construct houses for their accommodation. This condition arises from the peculiar contormaiion of tho tslani, which ‘gies us a city without suburbs, except in Westchester. he result of this encroachment of the commercial dis- trict on the south and the high priced lands on the north being driven into closer quar- ters, especially in ‘Thirteenth, Fourteenth and Seventeenth wards. In the Zleventh ward the popu- lation to the square acre 1s 324 which exceeds the most populons district of London, the Strand, which has 307 persons to the square acre.’ The excess of this over- crowdil will ay when te that the English w: im density tor health at 8) persons to the acre, while the highest French authority allows 100 persons to the acre. ihe eftect of this exceasive crowding in badly constructed dweilings h rate, is exhibited in the tact shat this hult ‘ion ot New York yields 75 per cent ot its sickness and mortality. Sickness and death however, but a fraction ot the sum toval of damage which overcrowding and defective house accommoda- tions do to the poor. ey are compelled to live in such familiar contact, such daily and nightly exposure of sexes and such utter disregard or comimon decencics of rational beings, that vice and immorality in their most revoiting torms pervade the very atmosphere of their homes. Of the various methods y t of relief to the gigantic evils or the tenement house system of accom- modating the poor with domiciles in the city there is | none so Wise and so judicious as that which alms to pro- | vide homes tor tae laboring classes in the couniry. There | will undoubtedly be @ strong tendency among this ciass to seek residences in the new aistricts, and it becomes & matter of vital importance to the pablic heaith and to the soctal wellare ot these people that every facility be given them to acquire permanent homes on these un occupied lands. It is betteved that there are thousands ot honest laboring men, crowded with their families into dark an‘ noisome apartments, totally deprived of all the conditions or home life, who would with the opening spring seek, homes in Westchester If they woulda not hereby be deprived ot their customary employment. ‘The great obstacle which presents iiselt to the laborer who desires a residence in the suburbs of a city is the ‘want of cheap and rapid transit. He must live In such relations to his place of business as to lose no time, and thus he is compelled either to live in the city, or, it he takes up his residence in the country, hé must depend upon railroads tor conveyance, in which case his earn- i re so largely, consumed in tares to as to forbid » The feasibility of the suburban ot a laborer employed depends, therefore, simply upon the question of cheap transit on railroads, The British Parliament Jong since sectied this question in favor of the laboring classes of London by requiring all ratiroads entering that city to run cheap trains at certain hours of the day. ‘the result has been gratifying as to the movement of the poor out of the city, lor these trams are largely and in- Greasingly patronized by that class. The Legislature of Massachusetts bas, with characteristic intelligence, en- acted a law requiring all railroads enwriny Hooton to run cheap morning and evening trains." The newly ac- quired territory o1 this city is very accessible by existing railroads, There are no less than three nt lines: now in operation traversing the district in various di- rections and @ fourth is already constructed. if \hose roads all run cheap morning and evening trains for a distance of 15 miles we believe thousands of poor but honest laborers would avali themseives of the opportu- nity to secure homes tur their families in the country. As a slight return tor the privileges which these railroad corporations enjoy within this city, especially in the monopoly of large areas of valuable idnd, they should be compelled to provide cheap trains tor laborers who seek homes beyond the built up portions of the city. ‘As the Legislature is about to meet tne committec are of the opmiou that this Board should petition that body tocnact a law having the provisions of the law ot Mas- sachusetts, We recommend that the following preamble and resolution be adopted and that copies, signed by the President and Secretary ut this Board, be trausmitted to the Governor, the President of speaker ot the Assembly :— Whereas by the annexation of a large extent of unoc- cupied territory to the city ot New York which would be avaiable tor the residence of the families of laboring men and artisans em} ed in that city, provided extst- ing railroad companies would so reduce their tares for those classes as to afford cheap and rapid transit morn- ing and evening ; theretore Kesolyed, That in the opinion of this Board the enact- ment of a law requiring all railroad companies wich enter New York city to run cheap morning aad evening trains for the benefit ot the laboring classes to a distance of not less than 15 miles trom their several depots would be an important sanitary measure, ay 1t would contribute greatly. eine one ot K IAG arp tenements o! the poor. cttully submit STEPUEN SMITH, M.D. in the city the senate and the .

De Hays, of No. 646 East £leventh street, deposed that on the evening of the 1st inst. he was coming up avenue A, between Fitth and Sixth streets, when a party going the opposite direction wished nis party a “happy new year,” and we repiied to them and passed on, and deceased, being behind, had some trouble with the men, six or seven in number; they then commenced an as- sault om Frank Scheid, when the witness was struck by three of the strangers, one of whom he struck in return; the parties taen separatea, but the strangers renewed the assault the second time, during which deceased interfered and asked why they beat the young men—Frank Scneid and the witness—when they asked him what business it was to him; at which a tall man, wearing a light overcoat, turned upon and struck him and he tell backwaras on the sidewalk. ‘The witness afterwards said he did not sce the blow struck, and cannot tell which of the two men who stood near deceased at the tim> struck him: the two men then ran away; have oiten seen one of the men belore standing on the corner of Seventh street and avenue A; he 1s the tall man, who wears the light overcoat: de- ceased had drunk three glasses ol wine and three hot whiskey punches irom four o'clock in the afternoon up to the time of the occurrence, but Was not intoxicated: after being attended by a surgeon of the Seventeenth precinct station house deceased walked home with assistance ; nize Louis Linx here present as the tail man wearing the white coat and the man who ran away alter deceased was struck. Frank Scheid, son-tn-law 0. deceased, corrobo- Tated the testimouy @ the previous witness, ex- cept that he coud not identify or describe the man who struck and knocked the deceased down; deceased fell on his back. Caroline Thégaud, of No, 86 avenue A, saw deceased struck aud knocked down iu [ront of her own door, by & man wearing @ light overcoat; the Man with the light coat and another one then run away. Jacob Weling, an oflicerot the Seventeenth pre- cinct, testified that he arrested the prisozer Linx, whoadnutted that he badjbeen in a light in avenue A, on New Year’s night; he did not know the man’s name, but he had side-whiskers, and wore a high ’ JANUARY: 7, 1874.—TRIPLE SHEET. hat; also arrested John H. Moorehead, who told officer Gallagher that ne had been ina row in avenue A, near Fifth, street, on New Year's night; that he was struck and struck back; did not know the man he struck. Moorehead was placed on the stand, and said that he was assaulted in avenue A on New Year's night and struck a young man who, he believed, had struck him, Louis Linx, of No, 506 Sixth street, deposed that on New Year's night he saw arow in avenue A, near Fifth sireet, and on going over to see what Was the matter he got struck in the back of the neck, and struck some one back, but don’t know who it was, Deputy Coroner McWhinnie, who made a post- Mortem examination on the vody, testiiled us to the cause of death. rhe case Was tien given to the jury, who ren- cered the lollowing VERDICT: “That Peter Grevening came to nis death by compression of the brain, the resvit of a fall on the Sidewalk in aveune A, between Fiith and Sixth streets, ou January 1, 1874, and we believe irom the testimony that said fall was the resuit of a biow received at the hands of some person or per- sons tu us uuknown.”? On this verdict Coroner Croker discharged Linx and Moorehead trom custody. REVENUE RASCALITIES, pe EL EN The Mobile Customs Officers Levying Contributions upon a Steamer on Trumped-Up Charges. The Mobile Register of the 1st inst. recites the fol- lowing details of the manner in which United States officers squeezed about $400 out of a Spanish vessel at,that port:— ¢ It is the misfortune of our Southern ports, gen- eratly in the hands of edministration collectors, wholly alien to local interests, that these collectors look more to the squeezing of the Jast dollar of duties out of the ships and cargoes that visit them than they do to the commercial welfare of the cities under their jurisdiction. Our readers will remem- ber how, in the time of Collector Miller, the Register had to complain that his narrow and Uuliberal policy in the appraisement of cargoes—notably of a cargo o1 coifee—had driven vessels irom this port to discharge in New Orleans. And in that case we haa to intimate to the Collector that he sadly mis- took his office, if he supposed that the whole duty of a custom house was to grind the most money possible out o: commerce to go into the ‘Treasury of the United States. It 18 the business of custom houses to joster commerce, as well as to levy upon it duties for revenue. The legislators shape the taruf, and 1n this age of “protection” the Congress is not apt to need the assistance of collectors of ports to put it mghenough. Excessive taritts and superserviceable and stringent collectors imitate that our present Collector, Mr. Reynolds, carried on nis shoulders @ head too big to make ‘any such picayune biunder as this. Bul the following facts, as brought to our knowledge vy the parties ag- erieved, do not seem to sustain the opinion, The Spanish steamer Cortes, Captain J. M. Yirbas, ar- rived in this port on the 28.h November—and, by the way, We took the occasion to congratulate the Mobile public on this arrival as the pioneer ship of @ reguiar Suropean Ine, and to advise our mer- chants to encourage the line by all means in their wer, 28 an establishment very advantageous to Noniie commerce—the purser made out the mani- fest ol the cargo in duplicate, passing, among other things, 5,400 cigars and 40 bottles of wine, inciud- iny 14 bottles of brandy. ‘There were also two broken boxes of medicated cigarettes «used for medical purposes) that the purser | omitted to pass as he was told that it was too | small a matter. The boarding oMcer examined | the ship’s stores and found them ail regular, Four weeks utterwards the steamer was again boarded by special officers, by whom the seals were broken, the wine casks tapped and left leaking and a gen- eral search made, the whole raid resulting in tak- ing away 2,400 cigars, as excess of stores; 14 botties of brandy (of which only 11 were landed) and the | two poor little boxes of medicated cigarettes, valued by the appraiser at the enormous sum or $5. There is said to no law to de- termine what amount of stores are to be spared by the United States customs for ships to pursue their voyages, that matter being leit to the discretion of the Collector. What 1s considered by our Collector as @ sufficiency of stores lor a large passenger steamer, whose crew complement is 36 men? Itiste be hoped that m a long voyage across the Atlantic nobody aboard wili have a touch of cholera, for surely “cognac” | as a remedy wiil be very short. In iact, not & bot- Ue Jeft Jor sickness on board.
