THE COURTS. THE CHILD CRUELTY CASE. Farther Examination of Witnesses—Another Case of White Slavery in New York. BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. eerste Judicial Reminder to Non-Attending Jurors— Trials and Convictions in the Gene- ral Sessions—Decisions, In the United States District Court, in the matter of Robert E, Campbell and Phoebe M. Carpenter Ws. the steam ferryvoat Superior, Judge Blatcn- Jord rendered yesterday his decision, He says that, on the whole evidence, he is compelled to the conclusion that the libellants have not satisfac- | torily established the case set up in the libel, or made out any fault on the part of the Superior which renders that vessel liable to any of the @amages caused by the collision, The libel must be dismissed, with costs, R. D, Benedict tor the Nbellants; W. R. Beebe for the claimants. The case.of the Government vs. Cousinery & Co. was tried some time since in the Unitea States mess in this city. They imported a quantity of ou, ‘on which the Collector imposed a duty of $1 a gal- Jon, claiming that it was salad oii and not common ‘weet .oll, on which the duty amounted to onty | The defendants | twenty-live cents per gallon, maintained that the article which they had im- ported and was the occasion of this controversy was of the latter description. On the trial there was a verdict for ‘he defendants; but exceptions having been taken and points raised by counsel for the govern- ment, these were laid before Judge Blatchford for consideration, and yesterday the Judge ren- @ered his decision, He holds that the action of the Collector, in deciding that the proper duty on the imported article was $1 a galicn, was conclu- sive; that the right course for the defendants to have pursued under the circumstances was to have paid the duty under protest and then sued the government for a return of the excess or pe- Utioued the Secretary of the Treasury for a remis- wion of the duty. In this aspect of the case the verdict cannot stand, In the United States District Court yesterday, in the case of the United States vs. James Leahy, | Which, as already reported in the HERALD, was an action to recover about $940 as duties on an im- Portation of silks and cotton, the jury rendered a Verilict tor the defendant. In the United States Circuit Court yesterday, belore Judge Woodruff, the case of Lang and Ogden vs. the Collector of the Port was continued. As ajreaty stated, it is an action to recover an excess of duty which the plaintiffs claim the Custom House officials imposed on a quantity of iron known as “cut noops.’? ‘These hoops the Gefendants imported and claimed were hiable to a duty of thirty-five per cent ad valorem. The de- mand of the government is that the iron comes under another ciassification and is liable-to a duty ‘of one and one-hal( cents per pound. The case nas ot been concluded. Jn the United States Distriet Court yesterday, before Judge Blatchford, no jury vase was ready for trial, avd the jurors in atteadance were qgischarged until Monday next. In some. of the government cases to be tried next week it is understood that Mr. Jayne, who has given re- markable evidence in regard to the “moiety” sys- tem and the informers of the Custom House, and Jet in a food of light on the doings of that estab- lishment, will be a witness for the prosecution. dudge Blatchford told counsel yesterday that if there was nothing to do he would dismiss the jury very quick, as he did not desire to keep them here at an expense of $120 a day when there was no business for them to transact. If both gides/were Bot ready he would dismiss the jury. In the United States Circuit Court yesterday Judge Woodruff made some strong, and, no doubt, called for remarks upon the conduct of gentiemen who avoided, by every means in their power, being served with subpoenas as jurors, and who, wien served, dodged and slurked the public duty that they were solemnly summoned to. perform. Wf this Kind of thing were persevered in, he said, the public business could not be discharged, and it certaimly could not be said that those who were acting in this manner were, in any sense, faltilling the part of good citi- zens. The learned Judge expressed a sincere nope that he would not again be under the painful ne- cessity of publicly allading to this matter; that there would be a better attendance of jurors for ‘the future, and that citizens would remember they Were buund to discharge the share of public duty allotted to them by the requirements of the society in which they lived, not the least important of which was their attendance as jur MORE OF THE LITTLE WAI. GLE ae its Brief and Sad Life History, as Told by Various Witnesses—Mrs. Connolly, the Step-Mother, in Lieu of Explana- tions, Lectures Counsel—A White Siav- ery Subject for Humanitarian Poets. Attracted no doubt by the avcount given in the HERALD Of the sad young life of the little wail, Mary Ellen McCormack, there was a large crowd, docluding a number of Jadies, present at the fur- ‘ther examination in the case had yesterday in the court room of the Court of Oyer ana Tefminer. The young girl, Mary, @ novel experience in her young career, was “the observed of all observers.” She looked as childiessly simple and sweet as when first brought into court, though still clad in the same scant habili- ments of wretcied poverty and with the marks of the barbarous cruelty to which she has been sub- Jected still visivie upon her face. The next object. of interest was Mrs. Connolly, against whom these cruelties are charged. She is a middle-aged ‘woman, of a spure fignre and not altogether un- prepossessing countenance, and certainly does not ook to be the inhuman monster she is represented as being. Bergh, the grest hater of cruelty in all its forms, who has invoked the law to rescue this waif from her life of hardship and persecution, was promptly on hand, and 80 were his counsel, Messrs. Gerry and Monell, Considerabie testimony was taken, all the Material pots o1 Which will be found in the sub- joined report of the day’s proceedings :— MRS.

HEARING BLOWS. Mary Studer, a resident of No. 323 West Forty- first treet, next door to the Connollys, had never even seen the child, but very frequently she heard her crying, and very irequently heard blows; not every day, but very oiten.

Conrad vs. United States—Error to the Circuit Court for the District of Louisiana. —In this case there was a decree of condemnation against property owned by Conrad, under the Confiscation act of 1862, After the war the suit was brought to recover the property, and the judgment of the District Court sustained the proceedings in con- fiscation. On error to the Circuit Court the judg- ment was reversed, On the ground tuat the alter- native form of the libel was insufficient to charge the owner, in setting forth that he was embraved 1m one’Of the classes of persons enumerated as It should have been explicit and definite as to the character of the offence Charged, Also on the ground that the Dis- trict Court erred in holding that the proceedings im confiscatioi yesfed the fee of the property in the United States. It only yested an estate during the Ilfe of the offender. "Bui ie order was that the sale of the property stand—tie hi t progoeds to be paid to the origwal owner, From this judg- ment both parties pring the case here, the govern- ment claiming that the reversal of the judgment ‘was error, Dut that the order directing the sale to stand was correct, and the plaintiff in error the reverse.

Coroner Woltman yesterday held an inquest at No. 133 Franklin street, on the hody of Frederick Coombs, the venerable looking man so often seen | in the streets of New York for many years past, | attired in the garb of a Revolutionary solder, knee breeches, three cornered hat, large stee) shoe buckles, and wearing long white hair hanging down over his shoulders, Mr. Coombs died ot heart disease. He was seventy-one years of age, and born in England, Death in the Asylam. Warden Allaire, of the Lunatic Asylum, Black- well's Island, yesterday morning reported to Coro- ner Woltman that Margaret McIntyre had died there the night previous, under circumstances re- quiring an investigation. Warden Aliatre omitted to state in nis note the nature of Margaret's death or other particulars concerning her, Suicide of an Invalid. Mr. John Cook, a man forty-eight years of age and born in England, whe was employea by his | brother, at} No. 143 Maiden lane, died yesterday morning in the Centre Street Hospital. For some time past deceased had been suffering from con- sumption, and recently imbibed tov ireely of in- voxicating beverages, and bi: seemed greatly disturbed, While in ihe store ou Thursday morning Mr. Cook swallowed a quantity of laudanum, immediately atter which etiorts were made tO remove the poison trom wis stomach, but without success, and death ensued, at the hospital, Coroner Woltman was notised tu | hoid an inquest on the remains, AN AMERIOAN HERO IN ASHANTEE. An English correspondent, who arrived home with the Forty-secona Highlanders, writes as fol- | lows:—“Among our passengéts on hoard the | steamship Sarmatian was discovered a black man who has played rather @ conspicuous part in the litte war. Tom Dollar was well Known to ali who found themselves with the advanced guard, Born in America, ke figured in the civil war, and event- | ually found himself in our royal navy. He was a volunteer (or the expedition, and was one of Lord Gifford’s boldest scouts. I saw him wounded at the fight at the Dah, a buliet having gone through his thigh; but the wonderful healing powers.which black blood possesses in contrast to white blood served him well, and he walks now with a wound that would have lamed a European for some months, Sir Garnet, in recognition of his service: Bas sant Bima 1 England im we hope of getting him a bertn.’ Clark, executor of | de- | C.

Some days after the Finaiée Gommittee had reported | to the Common Council Kessler fed, | and it was discovered that @ much jarger number of bonds than it was at first sup- posed had begn stolen, Salisiactorily a sub-committee of the Finance Committee was instructed to make another ex- umination of the bona accounts in the Comptyo!- | ler’s Ofice, That committee met yesterday. | first witness examined was Deputy Comptroller | hance 4 relerence to the two missing evar 5 yr, Rich said that his attention Was first called to the matter by ir Braisted one day on his return trom dinner. | Bratstved hadled him a couple of the bonds and said | he had just pought them from the bond clerk, | Kexsier, oi the Comptroller's Ofiice, It struck Mr. Rich as singular that tue bonds were not dated, and, on examination he found that they shoud have been cancelled, Keeping the two bonds in his possession and giving areceipt therefor to Braisted, Mr. Rich next morning explained the state of aifiirs to the Comptroiler, and the arrest of Kessler foliowed in ten minutes, These developments led the Comptroller and his Deputy to examine all the bouds in the office, ‘The result was @ discovery that tour Park bonds, of $1,000 each, Were a:so inissing, Ex-Alderman John Raber, the next witness, tes- tified that Kessler met him in tne ofice of the | Comptroller, and said a friend of his had a Park bond he wanted to sell for par and interest.

Subsequently Kessler said he would cali upon the Alderman, and he did call | in company with a iriend and soid one of the Park -| | bencis, which it was jound nad been abstracted.

Yesterday alternoon an informal examination took place before Coroner Kessler, the object being the exhumation of the remains of Louisa Germs, a German woman, twenty-turee years of age, who, on the 2oth ult, died.at tie house of Dr. Ernest Uling, No. 160 Eldridge street, “and on his certifi- cate, which was accepted by the Board of Health, the body was buried in Union Cemetery, Brooktyn. Jt subsequently transpired that Dr. Uling and deceased were engaged a joint policy of $10,000 in the Merchants’ Lite In- surance Company, which policy was to revert to | Dinan case of her death. It is now hinted that Dr. Uhng was deeply interested in getting the young | Woman out of the way so that he could secure the | malepractice and not by natural causes have been | excited. Dr, Uling, it seems, lias uiade somewhat + contradictory statements about the nature of | her iiness, mode of treatment. &c., which, | to Say the least, looked strange. Dr. Uling made an iniormal statement before Coroner Kessler, and, among other things, expressed deep sorrow | atthe death of Miss Germs, and thought it was quite unnecessury toexhume the remuins, as she Gicd a natural death, But that assurauce did not Satisfy the insurance company, who stated they | were not notified of the woman’s death, as is cus- | tomary when imsured parties die. Aside from the statement 0! Dr. Uling, Mr. William F. Taber, of No. 111 West Filty-tnird street, made an aitidavit, | as lollows:— 60 veexamined the proofs of the death of Louisa erms, which hav made by Dr. Ernest Uiing and | others, and whi 1 nee Company of New ronal investigation erms, and Urat York. ‘Taat deponent into the death of said ¢cifcumstances surroundins e same are +o suxpleious and irregular as to induce this deponent to believe, and this deponeut hereby states that it is his belief that said Louisa Germs came to her “death by unlawful means. That deponent is informed | and believes that one Dr. Kantowits, of the city of New York. who saw the deceased previous to her death, has stated to vartous persons that he believed said Louisa Germs’ death resulted trom an abortion committed upon her person. Deponent farther says that on the bth any of April, 1874, said Dr. 15. Oling swore before one G. Bollet, a no- lary public of the city and county of New York, that Loitisa Germs had died on the 20th day of March, from disease resultant irom suppression of the, mén | caused by contraction of acold.
