THE COURTS. Tweed’s Trial Postponed Till the December Term. Se Memento of the Gould and Fisk Erie Railway Management. More Testimony in the Des Anges Case. Mysterious Disappearance of an Egyptian Mummy. ‘The counsel of William M. Tweed have been success- fal in delaying his trial in the $6,000,000 suit until next term, Judge Van Vorst, holding Supreme Court, Cireuit, before whom the case was set down for trial on Monday last, yesterday gave his decision on the motion to strike tho case from the calendar, Ho grants the application on the ground that an amondod answer had been served within twenty days after the case was noticed for trial. This decision allows Mr. Tweed’s counsel just the op- | portunity they have for some time past and at the owl- set, seowingly with hopeless result, been sedulously striving to obtain, which is, before the caso is brought to trial to have heard at the Court of Appeals their sargument on their two appeals, the first from the decision of the Supreme Court, General Term, reversing tho order of Judgo Donohue granting a bill of particulars, and_the second from the decision of the same tribunal, affirming the order of Judge Barrett refusing to vacate the order of arrest or reiuce the bail. Although the prosecuting counsel haye been worsted in this preliminary skir- mish, they express themselves contident that no fur- ther Stunbling blocks car be successfully interposed to prevent the case being brought to trial next month, JAY GOULD AND THE ERIE RAIL- WAY. ° When the Erie Railway Company instituted its fa- mous $10,000,000 suit against Jay Gould, tho latter, it is said, caused an estoppalto be put on the suit by translerring stock and other property aggregating in value pretty nearly the full amount of the claim, | It is alleged that he entered into an agreement with the company to make a further transfer, so a8 to cover tho total indebtedness, It is now claimed, however, that he has failed to fulfil this agreement, and suit bas been Drought by the company against him to compel him to transfer to them some $1,200,000 worth of stock and other property. There was quite an argument in the case yesterday in Supreme Court, Chambers, before Judge Donohue, on a motion to strike out from the Serine the prayer for specific performance of con- Mr. Shearman, on behalf of Mr. Gould, insisted that the latter could ‘not specifically perform ‘an agreement wo convey portions of property, one-half of which was owned the widow of the late James Fisk, Jr. Ho claimed that the agreement could only be specifically performed by the consent of Mrs. Fisk, who was a stranger to ihe action, and really had nothing what- ever to do with the agreement, and that the only action properly to be brought was Ono for damages to be tried by a jury, and not for specific performances to be tried by a vourt of equity. He cited various authori- ties in support of his argument, In response Mr. Macfarland contended that the an- thorities cited in support of the motion had no bearing whatever on the case, and did not affect the issue. He contended further that the complaint contained many things, including a call for an accounting; that the cause of action ts one arising out of the agreement in uestion; that the motion was properly brought; that the prayer is appropriate, and that there is no rule by which a judge in Chambers can determine whether a party is entitled or not toa specific performance, and strike out a prayer for relief. Judge Donohue, the argument being concluded, took the papers, holaing his decision in reserve. THE TRIAL OF COLONEL DES ANGES. ‘The trial of Colonel Des Anges for complicity in the silk smuggling case was resumed yesterday beforo Judge Benedict, in the criminal branch of the United States Circuit Court. The first witness called was J. D. Balch, a Custom House clork, who testified that in November, 1974, the prisoner informed him that ho had passed some entries for Charles L.

Mr. Balch, con- tinuing his testimony, said that he examined the cases of shells after they were seized.

Ball as Groff’s por- ter, who delivered the goods; be sold the hosiery cases himself; tho others were sold by Groff and the money paid over to witness to be transmitted to Europe. On cross-examination witness testified that he had Deon an importer six or seven years previous to 1871; he always imported in the regular way previous to 1871. witness had seon tho cases unpacked in Lispenard street; it was in 1870 that Groff and he begun the importation together; the goods wero purchased by ‘witness's partner in France and shipped by a Mr, Petri- an, whose name appeared on the oath signed by tho consuls; in 1873 he traced some goods from Groff to H, B. Claflin’s store, but did not see the cases opened. ‘To Mr. Bliss—Groff said the $50 por case was to bo divided up between the boys; he also said that the $400 case was to be divided between the boys on the is of $100 each; after Pewrican ceased shipping, a ‘man named Hardoft, residing near Lyons, acted in that ty.

Baldwin, importers and dealers in artificial flowers, for the recovery of $12,600 revenue alleged to be due om the manufacture of artificial flowers. It appears that rome years ago ex-Collector Bailey seized their establishment for not making returns under the law of They bonded their hectory in 1966, and tt was subsequently released and this suit instituted to collect revenue from October, 1864, to 1866.

He replied that the drawing room car tickets must be got on the train, and that he had no Baltimore and Potomac tickets, but that the Baltimoro and Ohio tickets, which he handed tomo, were interchangeable, and that I had my option at Baltimore to take either route. 1 accepted his tickets and bis statement, When the train arrived from New York we got into the drawing room car and paid the con- ductor for three seats from Elizabeth to Washington, Be- foro arriving at Baltimore the same drawing room cat conductor came to demand that we should leave his car, As he was the person of whom tho tickets for seats to Washington had been purchased but a few hoars before, 1 naturally remonstrated, but in vain, and wo wero sent into a very dirty ordinary car, the two gentiomen compelled to stand up for some distance and the lady in our company provided with a seat with gome difficulty. I may add that the conduc- tor refused to return the money he had received and eted for carrying as in his drawing room car from ore to Washington, As I had some acquaintance with Mr. Thomas Scott, President of the Pennsylvania Rail |, 1 wrote to him, on my return to New York, a statement of these facts, but have not been (though it is some weeks ce) honored with any Liat en- close my card and we bythe of 2 hope oo who ‘was in my company on the occasian of outrage, Naw Yous.

ONE HUNDRED AND NINETY-TWO ACRES OF CITY PROPERTY IN LITIGATION—A SENSATIONAIs STORY ABOUT “THE BUCHANNAN ESTATE.” [From the Springfield (Mo.) Advertiser. ] We have been unable to get ail the facts pertaining to this immense claim, but from what we have learned from papers in our possession and conversation with one of the heirs, a worthy citizen of Christian county, we gather that in the early settlement of the colonies, and while New York was yet in embryo, tho ancestors of the Buchannan heirs purchased about 192 acres of jand, then of but little value, but upon which has since been built tho finest portion of the city. Trinity church is situated on the disputed ground, and it is estimated that the entire property 16 worth, at least, $300,000,000, About the year 1766 the property was leased for aterm of ninety-nine years, a term at that time very common, In the meantime the owners of the property removed to some other portion of the country and died, leaving their children to look after the estate, In this way generations have como and gone during the continuance of the leaso, the memory of which has been kept alive asa kind of tra- dition, @ chapter of family history, until within the past few years, and since the expiration of the lease, somo steps have been taken by those interested to recover the vast estate. ‘The heirs, of whom there are about 450 or 500, are scattered’ from Maine vo Cabfornia, and correspondence between them is, in consequence, slow. Committees huve been or- ganized among them in various places and efforts made to enlist the co-operation of all. Many of them, how- ever, doubtless regarding the estate as so long out of their possession as to make its recovery very difficult, if not impossible, are exceedingly loatti to incur the ex- pense necessary to properly prosecute an undertaking of such maguitude. Others, possibly, on account of having heard but little or nothing’ concerning it, look upon it as a myth, and refuso to spend time or money for its attempted recovery. The evidence, however, in favor of the existence of the estate, 18 almost conclusive. It has been talked about by the heirs of each generation during the continuance of the lease, and since its expiration steps have been and are being taken looking to the recovery of the property, [tis understood that suits are now pending in the Circuit Court of the United States in New York, on the part of a committee of twenty of the heirs, and that at one time since their institution the plaintitts have been offered $150,000,000 to compromise, on a basis, however, — that ‘they were unwilling to accept. In addition to this enormous estate there are legacies amounting to about one and a half millions in gold, in Holland, belonging to the same family, It would be very interesting reading, doubtless, could we get all the facts connected with the family through its various generations at and subse- quent to the acquisition of the New York city property, The descendants, now numbering probably several hundreds, may ail be in moderate circumstances, many of them may have felt the stings of poverty, while un- told wealth was theirs of right and awaited but their demands to fill their coffers, But we apprehend that the golden apple will not fall into their laps without considerable shaking. Property so valuable as that now claimed, in the possession of others, will not be given up, evén to the undisputed, rightful owners, without a struggle. And it may be protracted through a longterm of years, in the hope that the patienco and perseverance of the claimants may be overcome and the claim abandoned. We feel assured, however, that the evidence in their pos- session’ and other evidence which they can certainly get will render the prospect of ultimate victory so certain that they will never yiold. The property is an ample fortune for all the heirs, and there is enough of them, united and working together for the same end, to supply the necessary sinews of war for a generation if need be. The money in Holland may easily be procured, and might, if all would act in concert, be deposited as a fund to draw upon for the necessary expenses in prosecuting suits for the New York city property. steps should bo taken at once to Ree @ concert of action on the part of all the heirs, ‘his may easily be done in a few months, and assur- ance would be rendered doubly sure. We await further developments, REAL ESTATE SALES. Everything was very dull at the Exchango yesterday. E. H. Ludlow, by order of the Supreme Court, sold, under foreclosure, the four story house known as a refrigerator manufactory, on 129th street, near Fourth avenue, north side, with two lots, each 25x99, to G.

The follow- ing members wero present :—Messrs. Beardslee, Baker, Dowd, Wood, Halsted, Fuller, Klamroth, Lewis, Schell, Traud, Hazeltine, West, Welt and Wetmore. After adopting the minutes of the previofis meeting Mr. Hazeltine was appointed on the Exocutive Committeo in the place of Mr. Vermilyea, resigned. Mr. Charles Edward Lydecker was also appointed tutor in the college im the place of Mr. B. C. Gregory, resigned. ‘The salaries of the meckanicians were increased from $600 to $750, The truetees then adjourned, and the regular meeting of the Board of Education was declared open, A communication was read appointing Mr. Morris Wilkins as a member of the Board in place of Hennig, resigned. A resotution was proposed by Commissioner Baker to consolidate some of the grammar schools where the attendance is light, with the viow of saving expense. The report of the Superintendent on Truancy showed that 626 eases had been investigated; of these, 239 pupils were absent from various minor causes, and the residence of 121 could not be found; of the re- mainder, 250 returned to school and 13 have been eat a ae ea arose relative to the power of the City Superintendent tn passing the qualifications of eachess. sire It was finally moved to lay the question on the table, but the motion was lost. Commissioner Townsend then made a fow remarks, showing how completely the members of the Board were under the control of the City Superintendent, sit they voted unanimausly to nominate some teacher thoroughly qualitied for the po- sition, they could not give him the office without tho consent of the City Superintendent. Mr. Fuller said that the Legislature very wisely left the examination of teachers in the isof a compe- tent man, as be did not believe that the members of this Board itself were competent to pronounce upon the ability of candidates for the position of teacher. On motion the minority report leaving the bylaw as it is was adopted. Miss Betsy B. Davis was age teacher in tho Normal College at a salary of yi r porediy Mg place of Miss Chisholm, rosigned. Miss Carrie G, Roberts was also appointed as sixteenth as- sistant teacher in the Model School, in the place of Miss Davis, promoted. A motion of the Committes on Normal lege to raiso the salary of Mr. Man; the musical instructor of the Normal College, was laid ov until the next meoting. Tho meeting then JERSEY'S PUBLIO SCHOOLS. Owing to extravagance and corruption in the Board of Education of Jersey City, the appropriation for the year ending December 1 has been exhausted, It was, therefore, necessary that the schools should be closed during the month of November. The Board of Finance have come to the rescue, how- ever, and have made an additional appropriation of $13,700, 90 that the schools can now be continued till the end of the fiscal year. The report of the citi- zens’ committee of ex) shows that the Board paid for work and materials to masons, carpenters and plambers from 60 to 800 per cent in excess of the value of such work and materials, The investigation of the frauds has been closed and the committee will not be ready to report for two or three weeks, A HORRIBLE DEATH. A FABMER'S HEAD TORN FROM HIS BODY WHILE THRESHING OATS. Junius, N. Y., Nov. 2, 1876. ‘Theodore Bodine, a farmer living in this town, meta horrible death on Saturday. He was feeding a thresh- ing machine with loose oats, In some manner acoil of fence wire had becomo mixed with the oats and was thrown into the machino unseen by the farmer. Ouoe “end of the wire instantly fastened around the cylinder ofthe thresher and the other end caught about Mr. Bodine’s neck and drew him up to the machine, The aperture being too small to Feu of the entire bod; passing in the head was literal wht from it and passed through. It was not until the bloody head came out at the other end that the fate of the farmer was discov- ered. The men who were attending to that part of the machine stopped the horses, and going back found the headiess trunk of Mr. Bodine lying upon the bara floor, He leaves a family. HELL GATE EXCAVATION.

Four trotting races came off at Fleetwood Park yes- terday afternoon over a very fair track. The trotting was for the benefit of the old driver, John Lovett, who ig at the present time in very poor circumstances, oc- easioned by a long sickness. Tho attendance was not large; but a great many of Mr, Lovett’s friends bought tickets who did not witness the trotting. The first trot was mile heats, best three in five, between the brown stallion Sir William Wallace, be longing to Jobn Trout, and W. Lovell’s brown gelding Barney Kelly. The stallion was the favorite at odds before the start, and he continued to merease in favor as the race progressed. Sir William Wallace won the race in three straight heats in capital time Tho second trot was a mile and repeat between J. Trout’s chestnut gelding T. B. French and W. Lovell’s chestnut gelding Clifton, mile heats, French was the favorite before the start at slight odds, but after tne first heat he sold in the pools for5tol. TT. B, French won the race after three heats, the second one being a dead heat, ‘The third race was a sweepstakes, mile heats, best three in five, in harness, The starters were L. Devoe’s bay gelding Toinmy Moore, P. Fleming’s gray gelding Willie and John Murphy’s brown mare KittyS The mare was a great favorite before the start, selling in many of the pools at 4 to 1 over the field. She was beaten very easily by Tommy Moore, who won the second, third and fourth neats, Willie winning the first heat, ‘The fourth race was a dash of a mile against time by bay gelding Rocket, the horse to beat three minutes, which ho did very easily.

Y., Nov. 3, 1875. ‘The students of Union College, whose minds are un- | affected by any unhealthy political bias, made choice of election day as the one on which to hold the semi-annuat athletic games. Owing to the snow fall of the day previous the track was in @ rather heavy condition, | and, as a consequence, the races were not entirely sat- ‘sfactory. Notwithstanding this and other unfavor- able conditions, quite a large number of guests re- | ded to tho college invitation and were present on ¢ college course to witness the games, The first event was a 100 yards dash, which was handsomely taken by Holman, 77, in 1044 seo. aes heavy hammer, followed, Bolds, °73, won, his throw boing $3 ft, 4 in.

The three-legged raco was finely taken by McBride and Snook, '79; beattie and French, '79, second, ‘The ninth event—a three-mile run—proved the most exciting raco of theday. Frear, ’76, and Vedder, ’79, were the only entries for this race, which resulted in a tic, neither being able to gain any advantage over his adversary. The it mile was made in 7m, 30a, tho two in 14m. 30s. and the three in 21m. 16s.

DEVELOPMENTS OF FRAUD IN THE BROOKLYN YARD. A Court of Inquiry, consisting of Commanders Meade and Whitehead and Paymaster Tolfore, has been in session for the past ten days at the Brooklyn Navy Yard investigating charges of alleged false musters and general fraud and swindling im Mr. Civil Surveyors Stratton’s department, It appears that Mr, Stratton’a chief clerk, Mr. Peters, as far back as 1872, was in the habit of placing the daily pay of the various workmen on the pores at $3, when it should have been $2, and “ mak various changes of like nature, Already in the brief investigation the books are found to be decidedly mixed, so much so that an accountant has been called in to unravel tha mysteries, It has been discovered that se thousand dollars have been musappropriated, ana a yet, only @ fine “lead,” ag the miners have it, been struck. Enough has been seen to satisfy cool lookers-on of the fact that there has been a very senoud Jeakago in Mr. Stratton’s department, and ‘that thd United States Treasury has suffered greatly under his administration. As the Board of Inquiry is preees cuting its labors with closed doors nothing but ge: results have reached the outer world, but sufiicient hast Deen ascertained to satisfy the department at Wash« ington that there is a good deal of rottenuess in thd conduct of affairs in the Brooklyn yard. Further dev velopments will doubtless be made in a few days.
