THE FORGED RAILROAD BONDS. Ba al ORAL Juige Westbrook, sittmg in Supreme Court Chambers, announced yesterday the dee:sion of Judge Brady on the application to receive ball tor Andrew L. Roberts and Valentine Gleeson, Im- dicted for issuing forged New York Central and otner railroad bonds, The jury did not agree at the trial of Roberts, and the fact being reported | thought that under these circumstances Roberts should be disevarged on the recognizance of J. 5. Clark in $15,000, With regard to Mrs, Gleeson, | she Was not, in his view, suiliciently independent | of ber husband to be a proper security: her | brocher-in-iaw would be accepted, but was not sniicient by himself, Gleeson must have two sureties in $15,000, Jndge Brady also thinks that both Mrs, Gleeson and Mrs, Roverts are disquait- fied, because tuere were allacnments against thelr property. After announcing the decision Judge Westbrook inquired for the District Attor- ue "| ney. care apd an- | “mr, W. Wirt Hewett, one of the counsel at the trial, Said he unaerstood Mr. Allen Was out of town, Mr. Beach protested that Mr, Allen had no right to be out of Lown SO a8 LO Keep a citizen in prison | @ day or an bour. Judge Wesibrook ordered the bail bond for Roberts to be made out in the District Atrorney’s oftice. Mr. Beach assured the Court that as far as Mrs, Roberts was concerned she Was not aware of any | attachment against her property. “{ never betore Knew,’ continued couuse|, “an instance im which a lady Was not aware Whether ene was attached.’ | Judge Brady subsequently came into court, and the recoenizauce was signed ior Robert consequently discharged.

The following is Judge Westbhrook's opiuion, which, as will be seen, iS Snort and to the point:—“To dispose of tis application it 18 not necessary elaborately to discuss or accurately to define the powers of a Harbor Master or Captain of the Port of New York, Whatever powers they have must be exercised, not arbitrarily, out with discretion and juazment, It would certamly be unreasonanie to hold that either could compel a vessel, which was undergo- ing repairs at a place assigned to it, fo ieave in an unfiuished state, and when such removal would be dangerous and nnsaie. IJ see no harm in contina- ing the injunction while the steamer City of New York ism such a condition, and as the rights of the parties depending upoa the condition of the vessel at the time of commencing the action must be determined by the snit, on the trial of which witnesses will be orally examined, 1 see Do objece tion to restrain any other proceeding. can with salety be moved, tne defendants may apply to dissolve, Let the injunction order be drawn in uniformity with these views.”” MATRIMONIAL MISERIES. In May last Mary Jane Heatherton brought a suit in the Supreme Court for a limited divorce from James M. Heatherton, her husband, on the charge of cruelty. He denied this charge, and also brought a cross suit against his wife for an absolure divo! charging her with adultery with divers onknown persons at the Southern Hotel, where they resided. She put in an auswer deny- ing these allegations, and then supplemented her previous complaint’ by charging Dim also with aduliery. Meantime they ave two children, boy and a girl, the latter being two years oid, and both im the custody of Mr. Heatnerton. Applica- tion was made yesterday in Supreme Court Chazn- bers, before Judge Westbrook. on her behal{, to have the custody of the daughter piven to her. After the reading of various atfidavits in support * ol the application setting forth that the father was af improper person to have the care of the child, any further action in the case, on application of Mr. Samuel G. ‘ourtney, counsel for Mr. Heath- erton, Was postponed till next Tuesday. IMPORTANT QUESTION OF JURIS. | DICTION. John Asoo, a Chinaman, was arrested some time ago at Quarantine, in the Eastern district of New York, charged with feloniously assaulting Sianey Baldwin, a saulor, on board of the brig Taomas Owen, wiile the vessei lay in quarantine, It was claimed at the time that the proper place to com- Mence proceedings against Asoo was in the East- | era district, a8 Quarantine Was situated mm that locality. An argument on this point was heard be- fore Judges Benedict and Woodrul, when they gave contrary Opinions, tn order to bring the mat- ter before the United S:ates Supreme Court for ad- jnaication. This Court has jnst decided that the Southern district possesses jurisdiction, und the risoner can be now tried before the United States ‘court of this city. It appears that the prisoner was arrested in 1871, remained one year in prison and Was then allowed to go on his own recogni- zance, pending the decision of the Supreme Court. , ATTACKING CHARACTER THROUGH POSTAL CARDS. pe The Grand Jury of the United States Circuit Court of this district have indicted Moses Cham- beriain, of No. 111 West Forty-sixth street, for sending scurrilous and libelous postal cards through the mails, directed to William H. Raynor, Oi No. 5% Pine street, attacking the character of Aaron Van Volkenburgh, of No, 800 Fifth avenue. ‘Toese postal curds contain various damazing statements against the character of Mr. Van Volxenburgh and accuse him of dishonesty and other crimes. Seven indictments have been jonnd against Chamberlain, and he was yesterday ar- rested and brougbt before United States Commis- who admitted him to bail in $15,000, The charges against the prisoner are made by Van Volkenbargh.

Whether it is “from intormation received” by them, or otherwise, it would be perhaps unsafe to state, but certain 1t 13 that, for the past week, the dogs in Westchester county appear to be keeping remarkably “shady.” In some of the more popu- lous Villages, especially those contiguous to New York, it 1s almost impossible for a stranger to ap- proach within five yards of an itinerant cur; but in this canine crisis, when almost every man’s hand (and vos ’6 @30) ts raised against the perse- | Captain Marriott, the geeper of the dog pound, hia | street, Williamsburg. cuted pets, he would be most irrational who should “shoot out the itp” on account of any dogmaticai course whicn tie out- Jawed brutes may deem it prudent to adopt, At nigkt, however, when the wearied dog- catcher, aiter giouting over his receipts for the past twenty-four hours, s# wrapped in repose, the brindles of all shades and sizes emerge from their mysterious retreats, and while an occasional batch | may be seen ia solemn and silent convention on the street corners, others, less thoughtful, disturb “the arowey ear of hight’? with unearthly and pro- | longed howlings, despite the fact that a price hae | bech pat upon their heads, Not unirequently at | | dead of night, in the picturesque city of Yonkers, does the sulitary pedestrian observe some wily cur travelling in hot baste through tue streets, his distorted imagination apparently seein; a dog-killer in every bush. ‘This feilow’s all-absorbing anxiety to reach his kennel might easily prompt the inference that he had been attending some remote nocturnal canine con- vention, at which the principai subject Jor consid- eration bad, doubtless, been the prevalent dogmas promuigated against his species by cruel corpora- tions, aud a vote “dog-goning” the entire human | family carried without even a@ dissenting bark.

The Effect of Temperature. New York, July 3, 1874. To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— It is my opinion that dog madness is cansed by extremes of heat and cold, and, consequently, that the latitude of New York city is peculiarly favor- able for the development of it, In support of this hypothesis I will state that in the Island of Ja- maica, where the equable yearly temperature of 84 | degrees is modined by cool winds that make the climate delightful “compared with our sum- mer, canine madness ig almost uoknown. But avout eight or mime years ago the temperature of the island was unusually and greatly imereased, and the immediate result was the development of madness in the inferior animals, causing the death of an esteemed citizen of Kingston trom hydrophobia, That tne | game result 18 produced trom exireme cold [I think is sumiciently proved by the uncontroverted | assertions of those who would spare the lives of their favorites, that it 1s developed as often in Janu- ary and February as in July or August.
