HE TRIES TO GET THE CORPORATION COUNSEL TO HAVE A JUDGMENT AGAINST THE CITY RE- OPENED, BUT DOES NOT SUCCEED—A SEVERE RAP FOR THE OBSTRUCTIONIST. The Comptroller on the 6th inst. sent a letter to the Corporation Counsel, asking him to have the judgment obtained by the publisher of the City Record for $20,948 34 opened, and the ques- tions involved in the suit submitted to ad. judication. Yesterday the Corporation Counsel sent Mr. Green his answer in writing. In this opinion Mr. Smith says:—“I cannot advise you that inthis case there exists any defence | which would justify litigation, I have not failed to consider the case in all its bearings. I again advise you that the judgment should be paid at once, That there may be no misonderstanaing, I am compelled w ofMicialy apprize you that the Law Departmeat cannot give any support ov coun- renance to litivati nin tts matter.
