Marten vs. Louis c, Wenberg.—The laintiff in this case was the mate of the schooner ty Burdett, of 200 tons, owned by the defendant, ‘who is also @ member of the well xnown shipping firm of Wenberg & Co. As mate the plaintig sailed ‘om this port in the month of October last for ) in Brazil, the schooner being then under the command of Captain Pearl. The schooner arrived At the port of Para on the 8th of November follow. Jng, some ninety miles up the river of the same jpame. Shortly after reaching port the Captain @iea and was buried at Para, whereupon the | United States Consul at the port, Charies M. Davia, epprtates the plainiim to the vacant position on the 27th of November, when he at once took charge, loading the vessel and taking general re- sponsibility and command. The Consul declined to into the question of wages, as- suming only the legal right to appomt the plaintut to the vacancy as the most capable erson therelor, the question of wages to leit to @ settlement between the plaintiff and the owners when he brougut the ves- sel to port. It appeared in evidence that the plaintif’s wages a8 mate leaving this port were $45 a month; Ctiose of the deceased captain $76 a montn, The plaintiff lettin a@ sick port two of the original crew, and taking Only one landsman to assist in working the vessel, With a short crew on board, Exceptionaily bad weather was encoun- tered, and the new captain Was compelled to put into ‘Barbados for assisiance to salely work the vessel home. This he did and was commended by the owners jor his zeal and success, The vessel and cargo were valued at $160,000, The schooner ar- rived here on the 6th of January and the piaintit remained in command till the i2th, when he wag superseded; but fur three days more he continued in the service of the owners, performing such ser- vices aS pertain to @ master alter his vessel reaches port. The plaintuf having given his ser- vices without speciai contract binding him as to wages, appointed under unusual circumstances to the command of @ vesse) short manned, with & valuable cargo, encountering exceptional hazards and perils at sea, rendered his ac- count from the day of taking command to the day of his discharge at the rate of $100 month. His account was accepted by the parties here, but was demurred to by the other owners at Newburyport, irom which port the scuooner properly hails. This is the turning point ol the controversy, it being contended by the de- lendants that the mate who succeeds to the com- mand of a deceased master in a toreign port suc- ceeds to the same amount of wages contracted for by the captain wilh the owners of the vessel before leaving port. There was no evidence of “custom” to go tothe jury, none of the witnesses—old sea- tarers—having ever heard of a simtlar case, yet all agreeing on tue one point, that the captain’s Wages shouid be that or his successor, On the refusal of the owners to pay him at the rate of $100 # month the plaintif? sued for $125a month, The case was very warmly contested, and, alter a very clear charge by Judge Alker, the jury gave a verdict tor the plaintiff at the rate of $100 month irom the date of his appointment at Para vo his final dis charge @t this port. MARINE COURT—PART 3, Important to Hotel Keepers, Before Judge McAdam. George W. Hervey vs. Lawrence R. Kerr.—De- fendant keeps a hotel on Fourth avenue. Plaintiff isa clergyman and literary gentleman, ana brings this action to recover $1,000 tora valise and its contents, lost while in the custody of the clerk of the hotel. The valise contamed, among other things, a work, in manuscript, on the ‘Methods and Means of Christian Consolation,” valued by the plaintiff at $300; forty or fifty discourses and lectures, valued at $400, and the materials for a work on “Church History,” vaiued at $300. For the defence it was claimed that as the valisc was lost while plaintiff’ was on 4 visit to New Jersey the relation of innkeeper and guest did not exist between them, and also that notice should have been given when the valise was leit with the clerk that it contained articles of eculiar — value, The Court charged the jury that the act requiring guests to leave valuables with the clerk of the ho- tel was only intended to apply to such articles as any prudent person would put in a safe on retiring, and it was ior the jury to say whether, a8 a pru- dent man, the plaintiff should have notified the clerk of the contents of the valise. It so, he was guilty of negligence and could not recover; if not, the act would not exempt the deiendant. The jury rendered a verdict for plaintiff for $233 50, COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. A Deputy Sheriff Charged with Steal- ing $15,000 in Gold Certificates. Before Recorder Hackett, Yesterday afteraoon the trial of William Conklin, Jjointiy indicted with Charles Lyons and Thomas E. Smith, charged with grand larceny and receiving stolen goods, was commenced. Messra. Cardozo avd Howe appeared tor the accused. He and Lyons were deputy sheriffs under Brennan. It appearea from Mr. Rollins’ opening that tne ae- fendant was charged with stealing three gold cer- \licates, valued at $5,000 each, from Burr S. Craft, a resident of Virginia, who was in New York on the 18th of December; that two of the certificates were traced to the defendant Smith, who was in- dicted tor receiving them with a guilty knowledge. ‘The only witness examined was the complainant, Mr. Craft, who testified in substance that he was im this city on the day in question, and was ar- rested by Deputy Sherifs Conklin and Lyons at the residence of Mrs. Auld, wno made a charge of seduc- tion against him, and taken to the Sheriff’s Ofice. He was introduced to Judson Jarvis, the Order of Arrest Clerk, and gave one of the guld certificates to him, as the representative of sheriff Brennan, as security for his appearance. After signing the batlbond Mr. Crait invited the “crowd” in the Sheriff's Office over to Delmonico's to have some liquid reireshment, of which, according to his ac- count, they imbibed very ireely. While there Mr. darvis offered to bet that Craft had no more of the gold certificates, whereupon the social Vir- ginian exhibited his pocketbook, containing three of them, representing the snug little sum of $15,000, Soon after he replaced his SS in his vest pocket, and continued to drink until he became so intoxicated that when he recovered his consciousness he jound himsel! in the station house minus the certificates. The prosecuting wit- ness was cross-examined, and said that Copkiin asked of him $100 for bis trouble in going round With bim that day, which the Virginian thougnt was exorbitant, When betore the Police Magis- trate Crait swore, to the best of his knowledge and belief, that Mr. Jarvis stole the certificates; but, in reply to the counsel, he said that he did not see Conklin or anybody else take anything trom him. The case Will oe resumed this morning. Burglaries and Larcenies. Nicholas Sullivan pleaded gulity to an attempt at grand larceny. William H.

Mr. Rol- Ins stated to His Honor that the defendants estab- lished what was called ‘Rogers’ Express,” at No. 57 Gold strect, and that they forged orders for (hate upon parties in the city purporting to have een sent by residents of Flushing and College Point. The swindle was discovered the day after the bogus express office had been started, and as the prosecuting officer was unable to prove the writing of the orders he was compelled to take a minor plea. Another False Pretence Case. George Willershausen was also charged with ob- taining money by false pretences in calling on Louis Nebling, at No. 151 Prince street, and hand- ing him a check upon the Grocers’ Bank for $100, He wished $15 or $20 on it, stating that the signer of the check gave it to him, which was false.

The prisoner was found guilty and sentenced to the Penitentiary for 4ix months, ‘ Matrimonial Troubl Paul de Smith was charged by bis wife Amelia with assault and batiery. They live at No. 32 Marion street, The wife swore that she was Knocked down and kicked by her husband; but, Strange to say, she showed uo marks of her ill treatment, Paul asked to be , on the stand, which was granted. le Bald he has been out of work for over two months, and abused each di y on that account; that on the occasion referred to his wife became violent and attacked him, Scratched his face all over, besides tearing out his hair. His face bore strong testimony to the . 7 he had received. The Court, a/ter looking at the condition of both parties, concluded that Paul was ae sinned against than sinning, and discharged im. An Unsustained Charge. Edward Lynch was charged with steallag pis- tol from Mary Sweeny, of Rutgers street.

ESSEX MARKET POLICE COURT. A Larcenous Lover. Before Justice Flammer A dark-eyed Jewess, named Sophia Pulaski, ap- peared in court and charged Benjamin S. Rosen- thal with stealing her pocketbook, containing $112. Sophia resides at No. 48 Market street, and Benja- min does business at No. 187 Division street as a dealer in jeweiry. Both parties have been inti- mate for some time past. They generally chose the classic portion of the city along Henry street and East Broadway for their promenades, On Wednes- day evening, 80 says Sophia, they were walking along East Broadway, and when near Jeferson street she became insensible and would have fallen but for the willing arms of Benjamin, who at once carried her into the nearest drug store. She was soon revived with eau de Cologne, and the gentle Benjamin then accompanied her home. He called the next day and made affectionate inquiry as to “how she felt.’ He also remarked that he felt sorry for her losing her purse. Now, as Sophia never told Benjamin Of her loss, ae only missed her purse in the morning, she thought it strange. She lost faith so quickly in her quondam friend that. she had him arrested on & charge of stealing her purse.

Wuile warming them- selves before the fire in the sitting room of the hotel kept by Joseph Conrad, at the corner of 155th street and St. Nicholas avenue, another sleighing party, to which the prisoners belonged, all of whom were more or less intoxicated, entered the apartment and conducted themselves in dis- orderly manaer. One of their number. total stranger—slapped Legge on the shoulder and de- manded a song. Legge resented the famtliarity and a general fight ensued. The combat was ended by one of the gang drawing a dirk and stabbing Legge. The wounded man dropped to the floor and the rufians fled. Legge was conveyed to his residence and the police were notified. Tne Paced | day the above named prisoners were taken into custody, At the examination yester- day Dr. Miller, of No. 143 East 127th street, testi- fled that Legge had received four wounds, one over the kidneys, another in the pack, one in the breast ana another in the abdomen.

The Long Island Club as Borrowers from the Trust Company—Ehe Story of an Unpaid Note. Belore Judge Neilson, In Janvary, 1871, the Long Island Club, a demo- cratic social organization, which had its head- quarters in the elegant building on the southeast corner of Remsen and Clinton streets, borrowed $10,000 from the Brooklyn Trust Company on the following note :— [$10,000 } Brooxtys, New York, Jan. 1, 1871. ‘On demand, I promise to pay to the Brookiyn Trust Company or order ten thousund dollars for value re- ceived, With interest trom date at the rate of seven per cent per annum, semi-annually, on the Ist of May and November, having deposited with said company, as col- lateral security, with authority to sell the same at the Broker's Board or at public or private sale, at its option, ‘on the non-performance of its promise, and without no- tice to sue, ten thousand bonds of the Long Isignd Club, as deposited EK. J. LOWBER, President Long Island Club, This note was endorsed to the treasurer of the club, the defaulting Deputy City Treasurer, M. T. Rodman, who endorsed and delivered it for a val- uable consideration to the Brooklyn Trust Com- pany. ‘he company endorsed and delivered it to the city of Brooklyn. When the frauds in the City Treasurer's OmMce were discovered the note was found there and turned over tothe city asa part of Treasurer Sprague’s assets. Neither principal nor interest have been pala and Corporation Counsel De Witt sued the club to recover $11,147. There was no defence made, and, on motion of Mr. De Witt, judgment was rendered for the city Jor the fullamount. ‘The ciub house will probably be sold at auction to satisfy the execution. COURT OF APPEALS CALENDAR. ALBANY, Feb. 12, 1874, The following is the Court of Appeals day calen- oe in February 13:—Nos. 13, 60, 55, 28, 107 11044, A $3,000,000 FORTUNE ON LONG ISLAND, Report reaches us, says the Glen Cove Gazette, that Fortune is about to shower its richest favors on several industrious and worthy citizens of this place, representing the family of Merritt. It seems that a brother of the grandiather of Samuel and Washington Merritt, of tnis village, leased to one of the towns in Westchester county a tract of land, of about three square miles, for the term of ninety- nine years. The owner, Merritt, died, leaving one son, who collected the rents up to three years ago, when he also died. The lease expired about one ear ago, and the authorities recently advertised in the New York papers jor the heirs. A family of Merritts in New rork made claim to the property, but utterly failed to make it good, and now it 1s established beyond question that the Merritts of this village are the rightful and only heirs. The brothers who settled in tuis village lett four sons and one daughter, named John, Samuel, George Washington, Willett and Eliza Ann. O1 these Join died without issue, Willett was killed at a barn raising, a heavy stick of timber crushing him to death, leaving a widow and several children in indigent circumstances, who will of course share im the general distribution of the vast fortune. Samuel is the well-known hard working and turiity mason. George Washington 1s a farmer and was recently elected game constable of this town. Eliza Ann is the wile of George Westervelt, the boatman and bayman. As these heirs will reatize about $500,000 each it will place them among the wealthiest of our residents, and congratulations ur in upon them with such profuseness as to be quite overpowering, but they do not seem to be at all puffed up by it, but piod along in their custom- ary ways a3 if nothing more than usual had hap- pened, CITY REAL ESTATE FOR SALE.
