Barr tor alieged contempt of Court in not paying over as directed the Fenian fond of which he came into possession as receiver. ‘The ground of toe motion was that he was asked to pay receiver's fees in addition to the fund.

One of the heavy branches of the large chande- Mer tn the Court of Oyer and Terminer, where Re- corder Hackett 13 at present holding Part 2 of the General Sessions, suddenly broke off yesterday, and, With its three globes, fell to the door.

The Estate of Mme. Jumel—The Suit of Chase vs. Bowen—A Decree for the Plaintif®. Not long since the suit in equity of Ne!son Chase, Eliza Jumei Pery and .Paul R.G. Pery, her hus- band, and William 4) Chase, citizens of the State of New York, vs. George Washington Bowen, a citi- zen of the State of Raode Island, was argued at considerable Jength in the United States Circuit Court, before Judge Blatchford, Mr. Charles O’Vonor and Mr. J. C. Carter appearing as counsel for the plaintifls, and Mr. L. 5. Chatfield, Mr. ©. Shaffer and Mr. Sawyer for the defendant. This Suit was instituted for the purpose of restraining the defendant, Bowen, from bringing any more suits for the purpose of evicting the plaintitts from the property, kuown as the Jumel property, Bituate at Fort Washington, and which nad been devised to the plaintiffs under deeds and settle- menis executed by Mme. Jumel several years belore her death. The defendant, Bowen, brought @n action in the United States Circuit Court for the purpose of ejecting Mr. Chase and his family trom the possession of this property, Bowen claiming that he was the illegitimate son of Mme. Jumei, and, as such, had a rigbt, under the laws of the State of New York, to inherit real estate irom his mother, On the trial of this case tne jury disagreed, six being in lavor of Bowen and five for Chase, the twelfth juror having been excused in consequence of bad health. The case Was brought toa second trial before Judge Wilham D. Shipman and a special or struck jury, and after ab investigation extending over thirteen weeks, resulted in 4 Unanimous Verdict for Mr. Chase. Bowen appeals to the Supreme Court of the United States ior & new triai, but on this there 1s as yet Ro decision. Mr. Chase turned round ana brought tue equity suit above alluded to, charging that Bowen Was not acting in good faith, but had taken ‘Up the litigation as a speculative action, Bowen *@en.04 this, and replied that he was acting in good th. Judge Blatchford bas now rendered his decision ip the equity sult and grants a decree. The con- cluding paragraph oi the decree to be agreed 5 ordered, sdjudged and decreed at George W. Bowen and his heirs and as- signs, and Nis and their counsellors, solicitors, at- torneys and agents, be and be and they herehy is and are henceforti and forever enjoined and re- strained irom commencing or prosecuting at law ny suit or suits, action or actions, proceeding or proceedings for the recovery of any real or per- sonal estate mentioned in the bill, or which was of the said Eliza B. Jumel, or any claim or claims W the same, or any part thereof, as or on pretence of being an hetr at law or next of kin of Eliza B. Jamel, deceased, provided, however, that George W. Bowen shall be at liberty to proceed to a final decision in the Supreme Court of the United States upon the Writ of error mentioned in the supple- Mental auswer in this cause, and that no proceed- ’pgs shall be bad py the plaintiffs tn this cause to dismiss for want of prosecution any of the suits or actions mentioned in the bill in this cause until the aloresaid decision in the Supreme Court of the Mnited States, or the dismissal of such writ of error. Judge Blatchford has written on the back of the proposed decree the following words:—“The witain decree, omitting the part in brackets, will | be entered unless there are some jormal maccu- racies in it. Give notice Of settlement.” Counsel on both sides will meet in the course of a few days and agree upon the precise terms 01 the | decree to be entered. \ Mr. Neison Chase and his children—who gre the heirs of Mary Jumei, the adopted daughter of Stephen Jumel and Mme. Jumel, his wile— Claim that vhe property in question, 80 far as it came from tie estate of Stepnen Jumel, was set- Wed upon Mr. Chase’s children by irrevocable in- Btruments and conveyances, drawn by Chancellor | Kent, and that Mme, Jumel never had apy sub- stantial title to it; and that, so jar as respects any property which Mme. Jume) acquired herself by purchase—she having wrongiully conveyed to bona Ade purchasers large portions of the estate settied upon the heirs o: Mary Jumel, as above men- tioned—had subjected hersell to a liability to make good to them the property thas diverted by convey- ing to them lands of equal vaiue, and consequently, | as they claim, all such property could be recoverea in equity by them towards satisfying this ity. 1e decree ranted by Judge iC Hora is based wpon the ground that it is contrary to equity tor Bowen to be suing the present possessors of the property in acuon’ in courts of law, because if there were any founda- | tion jor Bowen’s claim (as Bowen aileges there is) it would show that he had only a bare legal titie, | while Mr. Chase and his children have the whole equitable interest; 80 that, as Mr. Chase and bis Jamily contend, even if Bowen should recover in an action of ejectment in a court ol law, a court of equity would compel hum to reconvey to them all he recovered. The Trial of Callender. Before Judge Benedict, ‘The trial of Charles Callender was resumed yes- terday in the United States Circuit Court room No. 27 Chambers street, before Judge Benedict.

F. D. Tappen, President of the Gallatin Na- tional Bank, repeated iis testimony, a8 given on ‘the previous tial, relative to the failure of the Ocean Bank. Several bankers and brokers testified that the bonds upon which the Oceun Ba had loaned money to Calleuder were worti and that at ‘the time the loans were wade tie securities given for them Were nut Known w be negotiable in the market, James Henry Askin, ex-Pres‘dent of the Fourth National Bank’ of Philadelpaia, deposed to having had ® conversation in isil with Callender, wio spoke of having made A joan tn that bauk lor oipers. Wituess some days before the bank jailed took up a loan of $120,000 and paid it. He did not know the loan was for Valiender, but witness paid it because, as he said, he felt moraily bound to do no, The securities given sor the joan were bonds of the Portage Lake Company, somewhat siimilar to the one produced ip court. ‘fhe Fourth Na- tional Bank of Philadeipoia had paid aii its ac- counts. George W. Martin, a clerk in the omMece of the Comptrotier of the Currency, produced from the files of that office the reports inade by Callender in relation to the Ocean National Bank.

He accordingly dismisses the | bill, Mr. J. Van Santvoord was counsel for the com- | Piainant, and Mr. A, V. Briesen ior the deiendant. | SUPREME OOURT—CHAMBERS. A Cotton Suit and Reduction of Bail. Before Judge Donohue. Francisco Yturia was some time since arrested at the suit of Nelson Clements and his bail fixed at $125,000, being the value of 270 bales of cotton, alleged by the latter to have belonged to him and to have been shipped from Mexico by Mr. Yturta to Liverpool as his own aud there sold. On the con- trary, Mr. Yturia says he took only ninety bales, witch belonged to nim, and that beiore this action he never heard of Mr. Clements claiming to own more than eighty bales of the cotton. It is quitea mixed up case, and the stories are rather confMict- ing. Most 0: the cotton is said to have been sent to Mexico during the war, on account of advances | made to the Confederate government. Application | Was made to reduce Mr. Yturia’s bal to $25,000. This the Judge retused to do, but reduced it to $60,000, Thus the case stands at present.

Anna Jamier vs, Rosa Schenck.—During the year 1873 the plaintiff and defendant resided on the same floor at No. 415 Sixth avenue, the one occupying the front and the other the rear apartments. An intimate friendship sprung up between them, and a frequent passing and repassing between each Others’ rooms was the consequence. According to the defendant trey never disagreed, although she acknowledged that the plaintiff being an Alsatian she understood very little of what she said. One Sunda. morning in November the defendant missed from her bureau @ cashmere shawl, and, suspecting the plaintiff of taking it, accused her of the theit, which charge was denied; and plaintiff states thas the defendant then caused her to be arrested; that she was taken through the streets by police officers to tue station house, thence to the police conrt, there locked up in a filthy room, with two drunken men, for about half an hour, but finally discharged upon a@ hearing being haa. Mrs. Jaffier says that she Was so affected by this treatment that she became Bick, bg ct md the attendance of a physician, losing about fifteen days trom her business of dress- Making, and brings this sult to recover for the ex- penses to which she was put, as well as for com- pensation ior her Mental aud bodily sufferings by Teason of the arrest and imprisonment. The defendant's story is that although very fend!y teelings existed between them, yet she | had reason to suspect on former occasions that the | plaimtis was not entirely honest, giving as one }n- | stance an Occasion upon. mich she missed her pocketbook, containing $14, iiihedlately after the peine: had left ber room, and that On sheet er and asking her about it the plaintuf returne: to her (defendant's) room, and, stooping down, seemed to take the pocketbook trom under her bureau, saying that the cat must have put it there, The plaintiff, however, explains this by saying that the deiendant, the night before, when somewhat under the infuence of liquor, had thrown the pocketbook at the cat. and that she, remembering these circumstances, on béing asked about it, went in and picked it up from where it had fallen. Mrs Schenck further denies that she made a charge or caused the arrest of the piain- tiff, Dut says that she went to the station house and consulted the captain there as to what she should do, and that he sent a detective round with her to act according to his (detective’s) judgment, nd that this detective arrested the plaintif® and caused both parties to accompany bim to the sta- tion house, whence they went to the Police Court ; but that she always said to the oficers that they must not arrest Mrs, Jaffier, but only do something to guard her (the defendant) against any further ana future loss which may be occasioned by theft. The case occupied the greater part of the day. a large number of witnesses, occupants of the house and policemen, having been examined. The jury rendered a verdict in favor of the plaintiff tor $75.

Witness then went | to see deienaant’s father, and on his return offered her, in the name of the latter, $5,000 in currency, to be paid the next day, on condition that the connection should cease at once. She first refused to accept the $5,000, the delendant encouraging her in this refusal, a8 he also consid- ered the amount too small. She finally consented, and it was agreed that she should call hext day, a! twelve o'clock, at his office, No. 11 Wall street, to receive the money, When she called she asked him if he had seen a recent decision of a Vourt by which cohabitation was a proof of marriage. He replied that he had seen the report. She then de- clared that she could claim to b> the de/endant’s wile under that decision, She never signed the agreement. She always conducted herself a8 & beriect lady in his dealings with her. Dr. E. A. White, who attended the defendant in 1865 at the St. James Hotel, was tuld by the plain- tif that she had him in her power; that the de- Jendant was rich and she was going to have her share o1 his wealth. She did not, anyhow, care lor him, but if he wouid give her $6,000 and a costly Set of diamonds “he could go.’? Mr. Nathaniel Green, of Memphis, says the plain- ti told him she had saved the defendant's life, and that her health had been much injured by being with him, He always understood her to be lis ne a ter the reading of these depositions the Court adjourned Hil Mobday'" morning at fen o'clock. cs r) nished on ‘iuesday or Wednesday. r wand STATE TREASURER RAINES, It is Charged that He Is a Raving Ma- nmiac—A Species of Religious Frenzy. An Albany despatch to the Utica Herald, under ate o1 the 20th, says:— ‘Thomas Raines, the Treasurer, is a raving luna- tic, He is lucid ior brief intervals, but in tue main he ts stark mad, ‘The frst marked exnibition ol this condition was made yesterday. His insanity takes the shape of religious irenzy, and he prays and ex- borta with frantic fervor. Mr. Raines is of a hight: nervous organization, which is very excitable ani sensitive. His physical strength is rather slender, He has been taxed very nerarely in mauy ways auring the pastiew weeks, and has finally given way to the strain imposed upon him. The attack is so violent as to excite the serious apprehension of his friends. Dr. Hun regards the case with con- cern. Dr. Gray was sent ior yesterday, but, being away from home, he has not yet reached the city, ‘This misfortune of Mr. Raines proioundly affects his friends and acquaintances here; for he is greatly esteemed by those who know him. The hope is induiged that he may be soon restored to sanity and health by rest and tue use of fit remedies, Urica, May 22, 1874. State Treasurer Raines is quiet and comsortable to-day, though feeble. He has slept tor the past two nights. EX-PRESIDENT TYLER’'S SON ON PAMILY SCANDAL, In refutation of the story that the widow of ex- President Tyler has, after lawsuits with her own and her husband’s children, entered into posses. sion of the Sherwood Forest estate, on the James River, Rev. John Tyler writes to the Floridan as follows :— Permit me tosay, if you please, that no mem- ber of my iatner’s jamily Nas ever had any iegal controversy with my iather’s widow. Her contro- versies in this respect have been altogether be- tween herself and members of her own iather’s family. The children of my mother, ‘hank Goa, have never been known as mercenary in any sense or in any manner, and we have all had too much respect for her memory and 100 much regard for her teachings, ag an humble follower- of Christ, to have en- tered into any such controversies. We knew our father’s wishes before his death in respect to the disposition of his estate, and, without a will on his part, would have respected them. Having be- queathed by will Sherwood Forest and all his other estate, both real and personal, to Airs, Tyler, we all cheerlully acquiesced in his expressed wish without @ murmur, accepting poverty with the termination of the war, in which we were all actively engaged throughout the unhappy struggle on the side of the South. In conclusion, suffer me to add that, as we revere our father, we sincere! respect Mrs, Tyler andregard her with filial feel- ing, having for her chtidren the affection of brothers and sisters.

The | | building in which the fire occurred was occupied | stock and-machinery were mjured to the extent of | Mr. Anthony laucn, Mrs. Iauch’s brother, said he recollected the plaintiff and delendant. Mr. Morreil engaged the rooms for them, saying they were ‘for brother and sister.” They had four rooms—parlor and two or three bedrooms. He | ‘Was quite sure there were two bedrooms. First Mr. Brinckiey went away and the next day Mra. Lawson left. His letters were addressed ‘Mr, Brinckley” and her’s “Mrs. Lawson.”’ He tound out afterwards that tuey were not brotner and sister, for if they had been her name would have been Mrs. Brinckley and not Mrs, Lawson. «Well, perlaps she might have veen his married sister,” Mr. Beach said, humorously, The witness shook his head incredulously. Mr. Hugh L. Brinckley, the defendant, was re- called by his counsel. On his reedirect examination by Mr. Anthon he stated again that he and the plaintia were fying under false colors, and that he might have reterred to her as hia wile, but did not think that he had done so; he purchased a plain | gold ring for she plainti? some time alter they were at Mrs. Beam’s; they were walking in Broad- way when she requested him to buy this ring; she selected it hersel{; he had never promised her this rng, but the purchase was decided upon then and here, Mr. R, C. Brinckley, the defendant's father, a sharp featured, ruddy-complexioned old gentle- mon, with white hair and gray mustache, who bears an extraordinary resemblance to the de- fendant, said he first heard of his’son’s connection with the plaintif’ in the autumn of 1864; his son told him of it; neither he (witness) nor any mem- ber of the family HAD EVER RECOGNIZED THE PLAINTIFF as his son’s wife; his first conversation with the ja:mtif took place in New York in 1867, at the Rortianat, street terry ; he met defendant and piain- | till unere; the defendant said, “Pa, this is Lizzic;” | she shook hands with him and remarked, “As you would not come to see mel thougit I must come to sce you, to ask you why you object to my living with your 80n a8 his mistress; he told her it was disgraceiul, moral and contrary to the rule of Goa and and that he would object to any Woman hving with his son as nis mistress. Mr. Brinckley, Sr., went on to say that she was | no more compilmentary to her own sex than to his— (laughter)—but those remarks he would not repeat; when his deposition was taken sie pleas- antly told him that she had no feeling about thi matter; that it was merely a question of dollars and cents with her; that the defendant had money; that she proposed to make as much out of him as sie could, and that she had the advantage over him under the laws of the State of New York; ne | (witness) asked her why she did not prosecute the one hundred persons whom she, perhaps, couid hold equally responsible, and she replied that she ‘wanted TO GET THROUGH WITH THIS CASE FIRST. | He next had a conversation with her at a hotel | 1M this city, but would not like to tell it as she had | requested him not todoso.- Mr. Cranmer, a de- tective, had come to him to compromise the case, | ingt,, in the city of New York, by tie Rev.
