Under the new law, regulating with greater strict- 408s than heretofore the inspection of passengers’ bag. fage to this port, some of the old inspectors who cannot Jorget their old habits are likely to come to grief, The tase of Lemuel C. Nodine and Samuel H. Swayze, the Dustom House inspectors arrested on tho 6th inst., sharged with accepting money to unlawfully admit to this port articles subject under the revenue laws to the payment ofduties, were brought before United States Dommissioner Shields yesterday for examination.

Crowley, of the United States Secret Ser- fice, testified that on July 4, 1875, he boarded the steamship Queen, from Liverpool, at pier 47 North River; saw the passengers’ baggage examined on the wharf, and Swayze was detailed to examine the baggage of J.W, Little and George Robinson, two passengers; the Deputy Surveyor had given Swayze tho declara- tions Ofhe passengers as to the contents of their trunks; Swayze went to.the trunks to examine them; one of the passengers took a white envelope from a jocket in the trunk under the lid; he took some green- ks from the envelope and put the envelope in his pocket; witness thought that more than one bill was taken out; the man then stooped and held down his hand with the money in it; Swayze stooped also, and the hand with the money in it was moved toward him; witness did not see the money pass; the men then stood up, and the lid of the trunk was closed and marked with chalk by Swayze; afier the passenger be gone witness saw Swayze with a $5 bank bill in is hand; could not say whether the goods in the trunk were dutiable or not; the two passengers went to the Lafayette Hotel, No. 464 Washington street. Mr. David Welton ‘testified that he was employed by United States District Attorney Bliss to how the Inspectors performed their duty; he saw the examina- tion of the bay oon the steamship Queen; witness saw Inspector Nodine mark a trunk belonging to a passenger named Smith; the man who claimed the trunk had a conversation with Nodine, and gave him what appeared to be a bank note crumpled into a small ad. wad. * ‘The testimony for the government was then closed, and the case adjourned until Tuesday next at two P.

Tho evidence for the prosecution showed that the fire was discovered by auJrishman and a negro who slept in the premises, A demijohn filled with kerosene was found on the basement steps soon after the fire was extinguished, which was speedily done. The principal witness for the people was a Spaniard named . Antonio Marino, who was in the employ of the defendant, Ho awore that Gonzales offered to give him, $100 and prom- ised to send him to Cuba if be would assist him in firing Martinez’s place; that on the night of the tire he ac- companied Gonzales, who carried ademijokin of kero- gene to the place and broke open the basement door; that he (witness) was afraid the policeman would see him, and as soon as he saw the prisoner go into the base- ment be ran to the Fulton ferry and waited ull Gon- wales came and they went over to Brooklyn together. Gonzales told the witness that because of his action he ‘was prevented from consummating the fire, Tho Assistant District Attorney called a number of witnesses to rebut the testimony olfered for the defence, some of whom swore that Gonzales’ reputation for hon: <= was not good. The testimony was then closed, he jury brought in a verdict of guilty and the sen- tence was passed iinmediately. DECISIONS. SUPERIOR COURT—SPECIAL TERM, By Judge Van Vorst.

A WELL DEFINED CASE IN BROOKLYN. It was brought to the ‘notice of the health authoritics of Brooklyn yesterday that there was a genuine case of well marked yellow fever in that city, The history of the case is as follows s A seaman named William Boalton, belonging to the crew of the brig Wanburn, was conveyed in the Custom House ambulance to the City Hospital, Raymond street, on last Saturday afternoon. He was then suffering from what was supposed to be typhoid fever, and was placed in a ward under the supervision of Drs. Payne and Nesbitt. On Thursday afternoon the doctors observed certain peculiar —bymptoms —develop- ing in tho caso of the patient, which led them to fear that the man had yellow fever. Careful watch removed ali doubt on the subject, and the hospital authorities, therefore, notified Dr, Otter- son, the chief of the Sanitary Burean, of the fact yes- terday morning. An inspector was sent by the Health Board to examine the case, and the result was that the diagnosis of the attending physicians was contiimed, the case being “Yellow Jack” in its worst form, Meas: ures were then instituted to guard against the exten- sion of the contagion by quarantining Boalton in a ward by himself. The patient last evening was in a dying condition, The vessel to which William Boalton was attached arrived at the port of New York from Matanzas, W. L., about amonth ago witha cargo of sugar, The Wauburn was duly quarantined, as it is known that the dread fever is prevalent at Matanzas, The cargo and vessel were thoroughly disinfected, and the former was discharged at the warehouse on Quar- aptine Island. The seamen were paid off and dis charged, The crew were then im good health, — 11 is not' known from whence the Custom House ambulance brought Boalton on Saturday last, The vessel has nevér been at a Brooklyn pier since her arrival in port. Health Officer Otterson will confer with the New York sanitary authorities upon the subject, sil sarnetonenienielonasy CORONERS’ CASES. ‘The following cases were reported yesterday at the Coroners’ Office for investigation: — ‘ Thomas Flemming, aged thirty-two years, of No. 333 Wost Thirty-ninth street, died yesierday afternoon ina cell at the Tombs, to which he was committed on the 9th of August, on a charge of grand larceny, pending a trial, Hannah Ryan, forty-five years of ago, of No. 820 Water street, died suddenly ai her resideuce yesterday, Dennis O'Connor, tiity-tve years old, who Was injured the day before yesterday by failing through the beams of a building in course of erection at the corner of Vestry and Greenwich streets, a distance of six stories, died yesterday at the Chambers Street Hospital, James Livingston, aged four days, of No, 1,036 See- ond avenue, and Emma Sackett, aged sevonteen days, of No, 243 ‘West Twenty-first street, died suddenly yesterday at their respective residences, BROOKLYN CRIMINALS DISPOSED OF.

We have, the: fos able to have an examination of the wall port, made by three engineers of the rat eminence, and to invite their suggestions as to the remedy to be applied, if any is thought necessary by them. That we may secure the utmost impartiality in this investigation, we have deemed it proper to re Your Honor, as the Chiet Magistrate of the city, to name three suitable persons for this purpose, .

Dimock, Chairmah Exec ter }commisionere , 1875, tive Commit- Sin—Tmmediately after my, appointment to the position I now bold in this department f received @ communication from tho Executive Committee calling my attention to cer- tain reports received by said committee in relation to the Canal street section of the bulkhead wall, and requesting “that you will make @ most thorough investigation aud ex- tion as to the character of the work performed, and ¢ manner of constructing ‘the section 6f wall reterred to, and report to them, in writing, the result and your opinion in regard to the construetion of sald wall.” In accordance with the above I have Anation of the Canal street section, and have examined the King street section, which was built upon the same plan and principle, and have devoted as much time as possible to this subject consistent with my other duties. The examination of theso walls bas taken much time, because the greater part of them lies under had ‘to be examined by means of armor; and, although Ihave not yet been able to maki ‘ade constant exam- complete uh examination as I wish to, Ihave asce: certain facts in regard to them which I'deom it my lay before you at the earliest possitle moment, Canal street section embraces ninety feet of completed before my appointment, and in front which the now pier No. 34 was also built before my arrival in the field, and about ninéty feet more in progress of construc- tion at that time. Upon examining the method of the work I found it necessary to at once make sever i a lack of cdnfidence in the principle of cided to allow this portion of the wail under construction to be finished, taking care that the method of doing the work and the detaliy should be suc as to secure a good result if the principle admitted it. The neral plan of construction was as follows :—The mud was Fredyed Out on the site of the wall to about twenty fost be- low mean low water; round piles were then driven for the wall to rest upon, by means of a fol- lower, to such depth that their heads or tops were abont fourteen feet below mean low water. A box or wot caisson was then constructed around the round pipes to vo shape to the concrete and prevent the cement ing worked away before it had time to set. This caisson was built by driving squere piles about eight feet apart and Placing shutters or panels of plank between them. It was not intended to shut out the water, but to prevent currents ‘and to'give the concrete shape ithad become hardened or set. ies were then filled in with changes in the ones outside of the caisson being embai to the same height with rips enisson was then filled with concrete, lo fi Water in a box, and deposited by opening the box neut Bottom and allowing the concrete to fallout upon the small stones lying between the piles, and upon and around the ites, to the height of about 12 feet, or two feet two inches low mean low water. ‘At this point the top of the concrete was levelled to re- the first or bottom course of the scranite facing, which n Inld course by course to tho top of the wall, the backing being also raised to correspond with the of granits as each was laid. taken euro by instructions as to details, and by ‘Diver McDonald down underwater to. place ench box of Gonerete in its proper position as It was lowered under the water, Lexamined the wall already built under new pier No. 34, Passing under the pier in & bows I found that all the square piles of the caisson had been removed, but only three of the shutters or panels, or about twenty-three at of ninety. All the other shutters were jammed against the face of the wall by & mass of rip-rap stone, piled against them toan average height of about seven feet below mean low water. They never have been removed and the fuce of the il has uever been properly examined, nor can it be until d panels aro” removed. ' Tho stones lying em are too large to be removed by the sending against divers (they estimate some of them to weigh nearly a ton), and some device with steam power must be used to removo them. Upon questioning Diver McDonald as to. the exam- ination made by div the fuce of the wall he informed me that he had made all the examination under water up to date, and it consisted of an examination of only one panel (about eight feet) out of ninety feet of wail built and lying under the pier; that on this one panel he had found the fuco of the concrete wall good, smooth and hard for about six feet down from the bottom of the granite, but below that the concrete had fallen away from the mass and the face curved in and back from where it should be till it reached the les, when it Just covered the second row of piles from the ‘ont (a distance of over two feet), and leaving the front row of piles bare of concrete and nscless, not supporting the ‘any way. By the falling off of this otter bottom face all its to rotation oF rol and es} 's0 when the e: placed bai In this particular case, however, deing built against the face of the wall, will prob: ipaster. ed Diver McDonald to go down and carefully ex- amine as much of the face of the wall as he possibly could. He did so and reported to me that the three panels eur the pope a side of the pier were all that he could get at; one of shom he had examined before, aud they wore ail, extend- jug over adistance of twenty-two or twenty-three’ feet, in the samo condition as the one previously examined and above described. This i ined of that 1 the wall under oval of the all will be @ than that 8 the pier, part examined, or may be worse, it part of the wall directly north of new pler No, 34 being under construction, was completed tot! © level of tho base of the coping. On. the Z6th of August @ crack was discovered just north of new pler No. d4, aud upon applying the invira- it was found that the wali had settled about three-quar- ters of an inch at # po he feet trom the north side of tho pier, and proportionately between said point and the crack, aud that it had moved out or westwardiy at tho sume point about the same distance. Two shutters or panels were taken up on the face of the wall about sixty feet north of the pier und the diver, McDonald, sent down to examine, He reported the face of the wall good, smooth and hard for ten feeveight inches down from the ‘base ot granite; from that point down’the small rip-rap stone intended to be placed between the piles and not bigher than two feet below their ier the concrete wud extended down to the tops below the tops of the piles between them between the overlyin i piles, so that ile of rok n 4 the. principle directiy contrary to lt, and is. the result hem in doing the work.

FATAL, RUN OVER ACCIDENT a THE VESEY STREET RAILROAD TUNNEL. Isaac Levi, a lad about nine years of age, while pass- ing through the archway of the Sixth and Eighth Avenue railroads, between Barclay and Vesey streets, yesterday afternoon, was run over by car No, 2 of the former line, The front wheels of the car passed over his chest and crushed him perfectly fiat. Corne- hus Hoff, who happened to be standing near the spot at the time, picked the child up and took him to the Chambers Street Hospital, Dut he died before arriving there. His body was sub: sequently given to his parents, and they took it to their residence, No, 8 Mulberry street. The conductor, Thomas Gardner, of No, 346 East Seventy-fourth street, and the driver, Charles O'Neil, of Fifty-seventh street, near Seventh avenue, were arrested, It was, however, proved that the conductor was on the rear platform of the car when the accident took place, and he was re- leased. |The driver was held to await’ the action of the Soroner, STEAMSHIP COMPANY CENSURED. - Coroner Kessler held an inquest yesterday in the case of John Lamont, who was killed by falling down a hatch on the 19th of August on the steamer City of Montreal. A number of witnesses were examined by the Coroner, and the jury, on hearing their testimony, rendered the following verdict:—“We censure the Inman Steamship Company for not having proper ladders on the steamship City of Montreal for their employés to ascend and descend,” “FIGHTING JOE” HOOKER, ‘The Jersey veterans, both those who wore the gray and those who wore the blue, are to have a reunion at Elizabeth on the 19th of October, In response to an invitation to be present, Major General Hooker has written the following letter:— Your cordial invitation to join the veterans of the Union and Confederate armiés at Elizabeth, N.

I sincerely trust, however, that your efforts to restore harmony and good feeling between our countrymen, North and South, may be crowned with unbounded success. It seems to me that our people should have learned long since that prosperity cannot return to us so long as the bad fecling and dissension created by the war of the rebellion continue to divide us, I firmly believe that the true and honest soldiers of the Republic have never lent their influence to the encouragement and continu- ance of the bad blood engendered by the war, and that they never will Again, may success crown your efforts in this direction. THE GRANGERS IN LOUISIANA, The Monroe (La.) correspondent of the Chicago Inter- Ocean says that the number of grangers in that State is about 15,000. The people who are directly interested in agriculture in that State are divided into three classes, viz. :— 1, The great mass of farm laborers, colored men, who work for hire atthe large plantations and do uot own land, 2. The propftietors of the plantations, who never work and often do not even oversee the work them. selves. Of this class many are lawyers, merchants and brokers, who (ie od overseers on their country places while they conduci their own vusiness in town, They were the slaveowners before the war, 8, The third class consists of white farmers owning small farms in the hill parishes or uplands, men who do their own work and did pot own slaves in the old times. Most of these farmers are poor and they are confined to the poorer portious of the State, having been crowded out of the rich bottoms by the great slave-owners, who occupied all the best lands in the first settlement of the country. The number of these poor white farmers is not accurately known, but is probably not. lesa, than 15,000 voters. They are as a class honest, industrious, well-disposed people, Free schools never existed to’ any extent among them, and their mail facilities have always been very limited. Consequently they are far behind the common farmers of the North tn intelligence, Very few of thom ever took any paper before the war; not one of them took any Northern paper then, or republican paper since. Their political opmions and principles were Turnighed by the lawyers or merchants of the town where thoy traded, This still continues to be the source of their politics, Most of these people were opposed to secession in 1861, but as there was no concert of action among them their opposition was powerless, They formed the rank and file of many regiments in the rebel army and fought bravely. Those who did not enlist were hunted. with bloodhounds and killed if they refused to volunteer. Since the war they have voted the democratic ticket at every election, the old political leaders simply telling them how to’ vote, and exciting their prejudices by every falsehood they could invent. Such, in brief, is the material out of which grangers are made, The habit of following others instead of acting independently and the lack of confidence in themselves make the real farmers timid, and enable the lawyers and merchiants still to control them, The planters and professional men, who also own planta- tions, have entered the granges everywhere and are the leaders, Many of them have interests directly opposed to the success of the grango and are working to subvert and divert the order for their own selfisi ends, The real farmers have allowed such men to be- come members of the grange because of their business habits and capacity, thinking thereby td strengthen the order and advance its fnteresta. In this they made a serious mistake, as the divisions now existing plainly show. Some of the old political leaders have also joined, and are trying to use the organization for politi- cal parposes, Still there 1s cause for hopefulness. The increasing intelligence of the mass of stnall farmers is the chief encouragement. May it continue, A MILL GIRL MURDERED. [From the Springfield Union.] A shocking murder, committed some time between Saturday night and Wednesday morning, has just come to light at Norwich, Catherine Dickson, the widow of a Connecticut soldier, and an operative in the Norwich Woollen Company’s mill, was found dead on Wednes- day in the yard of Mrs, Margaret Farroll, an Irish who lives just out of the city, Nittle old shanty. = Thos murdered woman's head was beaten to geity. and when discovered the body gave evidence that the crime had been committed several days, Mrs. Farrell was arrested and charged the crime upon Richard Robert- son, a mill operative, forty years old, whose mistress Mra. Dickson bas been for several months, Mra. Far- reil tells an inconsistent story of the murder and does not altogether clear herself of the crime. She says that she heard Robinson and the woman fighting Satur- day night, but thought nothing of it, nor of the non-appearance ot the mardered ‘woman on Sunday, The murder was undoubtedly committed in the house, as beng Arspat f article of fur- niture in the lower part of the building bore marks of blood, The body was then dragged to a shed, where it lay some time, and was then tiken out and placed by thie house, where it was found. Robinson, who is a wild, reckless fellow, last spring attethpted to murder his paramour, but only sucoseded in cutting a big gash in her throat, Quite a sum of money, which the woman was supposed to have received last week, is missing, and ison is supposed to have taken that and to have 4g no traces of him can now be found. The murdered woman was thirty-three years old and bad one child, 875.—TKIPLE SHEET, NEVER DRANK NOR SMOKED.
