This Was urged on the ground of the avsence in Cal- , fornia of & material witness, The motion was Strenuousiy opposed by Mr. Kelly, it being Claimed that the other side were not acting in good faitn, and that this was a mere subteriuge for delay. Judge Monell said he must decide upon the papers belore him, and granted the motion, The government, some time since, obtamed a fudgment for $17,000 against Joseph Black, Michael Grau and Joshua D. Miner, on 4 distiller’s bond. A motion was made yesterday in the United States Circuit Court, before Judge Wallace, to set aside the judyment, on the ground that the attorneys, who represented the defendants when the Judg- ment was obtained, were not authorized to ap- pear. Decision reserved, KILLING A SCGHOOLBOY. Thomas Tassino, a young Italian, with a look of bard cruelty in bis immobile face, was placed on trial yesterday in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, before Judge Barrett, on acharge of causing the Qeath of Robert Prait, a boy five years old, by Striking and kicking him. The tacts of the case, | as sev up by the prosecution, admit very orief felling. On the 26ch o7 last May the accused had his ice cream cart at the corner of Ninth street and First avenue, und at noon, as the boys came out of the Ninth street school, some o; them threw stones at him, and beivg enraged, he Caugot the deceased by the neck, knocked nim down and kicked him, producing subsequent death. ‘ibe prisoner was represented by Mr. Ken- jenn F, Russeil, and Assistant District: Attorney yons conducted the prosecution, William Francis Pratt, a brother of the deceased, even years Old, Was the first witnesscalleu, He , wold a very ciear, Straigutiorward story jor so young a witness, corrvvorating the statement jiven above. He said his brother ihrew no stones, ul they wer: both quietly going home irom school. Joun Keave, a boy aged eleven, attend. | ing the same school, and who witnessed tne us- Bault, told the same story; as aiso did other school | companions, Rovert Pratt, the father of the boy, and Eliza. beth Pratt, bis mother, were placed on the stand, but their testimony was unimportant, br. Henry Heirtles testified that he was called in to see the boy Kobert Pratt; he was lying on a lounye in a sommolent condition; he treated him, and in his medical opinion the boy died o! inflam. Wation of the brain. Dr. MacWhinnoey, Deputy Coroner, mage a post- Mortem exXaruination of the deceased. He gave the cause of death as meningitis produced by in- juries ne had received, The prisoner next took the stand and testified that he was eignieen years of ag and had been in tnig Country lourteen months; on the 26th of May last ne lived at No, 69 Baxter street. He was ar- rested near Fourteenth street on tie 25th ol May and was locked up; did not know What be was ar: | rested ior at the time; he was iniormed afew days after lis arrest of the charge ou wuich lie | Was arlested; he deuied emphatically that ne had ything whatever to do witn the killing of tne @eceased. The Coui:t then adjourned tll this morning, when the trial will be resumed, TWEED AGAIN IN COURT. Occasionally the fact is brought to public notice the courts thata suit is pending against Wil- | dam M. Tweed to recover $11,000,000 alleged to | bave been fraudulently obtained by tim from the | city treasury in connection with the building of the new Court House. The suit was brought in the name of the Board of Supervisors, It is now claimed that the only proper way under the con- Solidation act to prosecute the action ts to | bring the suit in the name of the Mayor and com- Mouaity, A motion to Make this change in the pi osecution was nade yesterday in Supreme Court, Jnambers, veiore Judge Donohue, Mr. Willard Bartlett opposed the motion. He Insisted that tne consolidation act, under the au- tuority ot Which the Cuauge is asked, is uncon- Btitutlopal. His reasons tor toe same veing un- consutuuonal Were inut it ubderivok to transier Wituout 118 consent the eutire property of the county to another corporation. If the act is con- Stitutional he urged iurther that the Board of Supervisors bad uo standing in court since ali riguts bad been jaken trow them. He argued further that the code does bot autnorize suco an Q@mendwment, Ii the umendment was uuthorized he claimed the right to servea new answer, setting Oe the defence whicn would arise trum roel change o! the parties, Nr. Wheeler H. Peckham in a brief answer urged that this was not a transier of rights, but a eousolidation of two corporauons, the old city abd County, Into a new corporation. In regard to anew auswer the delendant was eniitied to put in a bushel of them he wished, provided they | were nunc pro tunc, so that tere might be no change im the date of issue or any deiay in the trial, Alter hearing the argumeat Judge Donohue | took the papers, reserving his decision. Ap iun-@ rtant feature in connection with this argument, hat upon the decision will doubtiess depend simi- lar applications pending in simiiar suis brought Against Connolly, Ingersoll aud the other “Ring” basociates oF the great ex-Boss, IMPORTANT TAXPAYERS, ‘0 A decision, embracing questions of importance to taxpayers, was given yesteraay by Judge J. F. Daly, vi the Court of Common Pleas, on an ap- Plicution of James K. Whiting and others, to va- Gate & Bale Of property by tne city for non-pay- ment of taxes, The decision was embodied in the | following Opinion, wluch we give in full:— ‘the property of plaintiff sold by deiendants for non-payment of an alleged tax tnereon, levied in 1869, Was noc descrived in the Record of A ments, Dorin the Keceiver’s book for the year (863. In 1868 the piaintif’s ancestor owned certain land under water in the East River, immediately fronting a bulkhead belonging to the Furmers?

In respect of the tax of 1869, li appemrs thata buikhead was constructed in that year by the laintif’s ancestor, The description ip the text- ooks of “water front and buiknead clearly designates the kind of property taxed; but as to all the property except the “water iront and bulke head on the south side of I nirty-second street,” the ‘The property ts taxed 1 the name of no owner.

The re- het prayed for in the complaint should be granted, PAVING MADISON AVENUE. Thomas Agnew, as did a good many others for | that matter, objected to paying an assessment for | paving Madison avenue. Application was made some time since to Judge Westbrook, in Supreme Court Chambers, to vacate the assessment. This application was based on a previous decision of the Court in the Douglas case, holding that a jaiiure to advertise in any one of the Corporation | papers belore the ordipance was framed was fatal 1D respect to the assessment. The Uorporation Counsel insisted, however, that the act of 1872 cured this detect, inasmuch as it declared that nO assessment previous!y made should be vacated for apy omission to advertise. Judge stbrook yesterday quite @ iengthy opinion in we @ ‘The gist of it ts that the Legisiatu: sed an act tn 1859, absolutely promibiuing the passing of such an ordinance as the one out of which bi arisen the present action; that such ordinance then has tn reajity no extsience, ana is void; taat the Court cannot put |ue into nothing, and that, inasmuch as re nihilo nihil Ot, ihe motion to vacate the asscssment must be vacated, THE NEW GRAND JURIES.

Judge Joachimsen, of the Marine Court, in Special Term, has delivered a lengthy and very exhaustive opinion as to the rights of the mar shals of the Marine Court in the execution of judgments issued by the judges of that court as against the claims of the sheriff, tbat all yudg- Mments shall be directed to him or his specials for | execution. Tne opinion discriminates between such judgment as vy statute shall be solely given tothe Sueriff and those which, emanating trom the Court, may ve executed by their officers or city massials, and on this point holds that a city marshal has the same right in regard t» the tak- ing of personal property as any sheritt, This, it will be seen, somewhat conflicts with Jadge Davis’ ruling. Judge Joachimsen in his opinion—the points of First—That a junior judgment creditor can attach a prior judgment and cxecution only on the ground of actual fraud, Sreond— ince the nct ot 1874, relative to Marine Court (eptember jaws 1874, p. 732), a judgment of this Court can be enforced only after’ filing a transcript in the County Clera’s office, and a regular execution must be in the form prescribed by the code of procedure. \ Third—An execution ona judgment not so docketed | and not in the orm prescribed by the code 13 irregular, Fourth junior juugment creditor cannot be allowed to avail bimselt of the objection. This right belongs to the judement debtor only. Fith—An irreguiar execution may be amended in every respect on such terms as the Court may enforce. Sizth—. city marshal has the same rights in regard to the taking of personal property as auy sheriff. A RATHER “QUEER” CASE. About a week ago information was received at | the United States Secret Service Bureau, in this | city, that @ man named Daniel Coffee was trying lo “shove”’ counterfeit money. Detective Kenock | was detailed to work up the case, and on going with tue boy who gave the information to the place of meeting agreed upon by him and Coffee, found that Coffee knew him. He therefore hia in boy to see Coffee. Tne jormer went up to Coifee, and snatching the money Jrom him ran off with it. Coffee was arrested and Was to-day brought before United States Commis | sioner Shields; but there being no evidence against him be was discharged. UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT. REVENUE STAMPS ON CIGARS—OFFIOIAL CEB- TIFICATES. Before Judge Wallace. Some time since Mr. Frederick De Barry im- ported @ quantity of cigars, and the Collector, after placing revenuc stamps upon them, charged Mr. De Barry twenty cents per 1,000 for so doing. , This, he claims, was done under an act of 1799, which provides that the Collector shall receive twenty cents for every oMcial certificate given. The money was paid under protest, and suit nh: been brought to recover it, The act of June 20, 1868, says that the importer sha:l place the stamps upon the cigars, while they are in tne cus:ody of the officials, and cancel them, and under this the plaintiff claims the Collector cannot collect tne twenty cenis. The case came up yesterday vetore duces Wallace, but was adjourned until next week. SUPREME COURT—CIRCUIT—PART 3. SNOW SLIDING FROM A ROOF. Before Judge Lawrence, Captain Walsb, in January, 1871, while passing No. 91 Water street, was struck on the shoulder | by @ mass of snow sliding from the roof. He was laid up, as he alleges, six weeks on account of the | injuries he sustained. He brougnt suit against Mrs. Jane C. Mead, the owner of the house, for | $10,000 damages, Tae case has already been tried | ol but resuited in a disagreement of the jury. | A second trial Was begun yesterday. The celence | is that this ts leased property; that a clause in the | lease compels the tenant to keep the premises in | order and make ail needea repairs, and that there was uo negligence on her part. The tial will probably be conciuded to-day. SUPREME COURT--SPECIAL TERM. CURIOUS DISPUTE AS TO PROPERTY, Belore Judge Van Brunt. Thomas H. Young married a daughter of a Mr. Muller, who on his death leit her and three other | children real estate in this city valued at $120,090, Mrs. Young died, and a suit has ensued as to the claim her husband has to her share ot the prop- erty. ihe Guse Was tried yesterda, in this Court.

To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD :— On reading the letter of your London correspon- dent in this day’s issue, In which he hag in the short compass of a letter given an admirable sketch of municipal government in London, it occurs to me that @ few supplementary remarks are necessary to make his statements clear to New York readers. I was for some years a guardian of the poor for the large parish of St. Margaret's, Westminster, in which ts situated the | Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, parts of the rich districts of Belgravia and South Ken- sington, together with some of the most wretched tenement districts that existin London. When your correspondent says that each householder in St, Pancras hag to pay ‘a total sum oi 2s, 3d. for the half year on every pound of valuation of bis | Mi premises,” it should be understood that the per- cen tage is rated on the rental or annual value, | Also that, although by law the house cau be rated at its jull annual value, the usual custom Is to fix it at about two-thirds of the rental. | fuis is obvious, because, if the above estimate ior Si. Pancras does not include water and some minor items, it would bring the rating to 2s, 6d. in the pound for the hail year, or 58. In the pound tor the year. ‘This is equal to twenty-five per cent; so thatif it were rated on every pound of the value of the premises it would amount to a confiscation every four years, Again, the parochial ation in London Talla upon the occupier, abd not on the owner of the property. If a man takes a house fora year even he pays the rates your correspondent meu- tions. The Duke of Westminster, who draws from London an income of $5,000 a day, merely pays the rates on the house he occupies; tiatis all he contributes. O'her large holders of London prop- erty enjoy the same privilege, This has long been Jelt to be a great injustice; but the power of land- Jords in Parhament has frustrated ail attempts at aremedy, Ishould have liked to give you some sketch of my own parish, The particulars would be very remerkable and tnteresting, and would be | 28 much news to the London public as to that of | New York. The fact 1s, Londoners are grossly ignorant of all matters relating to the poor and general parochial matters, and 16 1s impossivie to persuade them to take any interest in the subject. Always grumbling at the heavy rates and complaining of mismanpagement, they allow AD bw dvds ass Count—Cuambers—Heid by Judge — Part 2—Adjourned COMMON PLEAS—GENERAL TERM.—Adjourned to | fhe Court | [erewerer ay | glections of officers to pose unnoticed, and the in- | a roduction of parocht like the reading Of the Riot act. I remember my | Own election. Having been solicited by some neighoors to tne oftice of Guardian of the Poor 1 consented. Notice of the election of myself | and others was posted on large pills ali over the arish, and smaller bills placed in every store. The election was to take place in a large school- room in which 6600 people could have assembled. 60, | On the day in question | attenced prepared with @ beat speech, which I supposed [should be ex- pected to address to tue electors. The actual Proceedings consisted in floding myselt and three other candidates In the presence’ of the parish beadle and the clerk to the Board. Each me. ber had to be proposed and seconded. as there was no one there to do it We performed that ofice lor | one apother, and the election was over, For all the parishoners knew or caret the oMicers elected that day might haye been unable to read or write, or equaliy untt in other vespects to discharge the duties in a proper manner.

[From the Alta Californian, Jan. 10.) } The continuous foggy weather and the quiet week in turf matters have had a tendency to | sharpen the appetite of those who had become | somewnat satiated in thelr thirst for racing. Tie | last event over the Fair Ground Course has been | the principal topic and subject of comment during | the interim, and up to the time of pool seiling iu | | the race free for all horses, three-fourths of | | aay, for a purse of $1,000, to be divided so as to | Biv the frat horse $600; the second $250 and the third $150, The entries for which were Katie | Pease, Chinaman, Jordan, Bullet Neck,» Red Oak, | | Blanche Hull, Sorrel Ned and Lady Amanda, rep- | | resented in their reguiar order by Wiliam Pat- rick, G.

Just at that ume | | @n unusual patron of the turt, in the person of | | Mr. Jerry Lerry, Under Sheriff of Alameda county, made his appearance on Che track in iront of the judges’ stana, with Mr. Halsted’s horse Bullet | $600, im iavor of William Stackpole, late pro- | proton of the Gulden Gate Track, Tunis proceed- ing for ashort thme prevented the starting of the race, und caused some little excitement | among the backers of the horse; but soon the debt Was discharged by the payment of the amount in coin, which was obtained from Mr. Randiett, the proprietor, and with tue clearing up | of this little affair came the clearing up of the for | also. By the time Bullet Neck had returned to the ; Starting place the fog had disappeared, so that the horses coulda be plainly seen in every maneeauvre tor | THE START, | 1m which a3 many as Jour false attempts were | made beiore the word was given. The pole had | been drawn by Katie Pease, with which advantage it was thought sue would not lose the race; but | When the tap-off was given sne Was not in as good | | mutton and position as Sorrel Ned, Chinaman, | Jordan and Bullet Neck, who ran in the lead to the | end of the tar tarn, on going round which | Katle was running fifth and sixth, unti | ; im the homestretch, where she cut louse for Ned, who was then im the lead. Chinaman observed the movement of the | favorite, and with a rapidity heretofore unequalled on any race course, or by any race | horse, he took up the runhing with the mare and | | Came up the stretch m less time than it can be | told, At the drawgate Chinaman aud Pease had passed all the others ana were jocked like a yoke | Ol steers until just betore goimg under the wire. | when the hittle ‘jock’? on Chinaman lifted and rowelled his horse, to the advantage of a throat- | latch ouly, at the finish. Red Oak had also done | Some fine running, and gatned jor timseli the po- | | sition of a good third, Mr. simpson’s mare, Lady Amanda, got a very poor start, but maintaived a | __ good position at the outcome. Red Oak hud the | outside at the start, and taking his chances into | consideration, his run was a good one.
