“THE COURTS. Business in the Courts for the De- cember Term. Suit of Jay Cooke & Co. Against the North- ern Pacific Railroad Company. A DERELIC? LETTER CARRIER IN LIMBO. Important Assessment De- cision. ‘To. morrow being the firet Monday of the month, the | December term of the courts will then open, Not- | withstanding the week of holidays that comes in thig month the present indications are that it will be one of the busiest months in the courts of all the year, As it is the closing month of the year there is a natural de- sire, not only on the part of the judges, but of members | of the Bar generally, to finish up all unfinished business ‘as far as possible, This includes not only getting rid of the great multiplicity of motions and counter motions now weighing down with a nightmare-like incubus the Chamoers, but obtaining final adjudication upon suits that have dragged their slow length along wear! somely through the year, By far the most important suits on the calendars are the Ring suits, t@ which the special defendants are William M. Tweed and Peter B. Sweeny, and the object of which suits, ag is well known, 48 to recover back some portion of the many millions these gentlemen are charged with fraudulently obtaining from the city treasury. While on the one hand every effort was expected to stave off the trials, 1t was quite certain that the prosecuting counsel would use their utmost endeavors to enforce a speedy trial, In the Tweed $6,000,000 suit a warm and exciting contest was expected upon the application to be made by tne State Attorney General for a struck jury, and upon this mo- tion a'lively display of legal ncumen—an utter exhaus tion, im fact, of all the resources of legal strategy—was confidently anticipated, but the sudden flight of Tweed has ended al) these anticipations, The other suits awaiting trial are of the usual multifarious character, as unending, indeed, in their diversity, as the ilimita- dility of books of law, ‘There will be no session of the Supreme Court, Gen- ‘eral Term, until the 30th of the month, at which time this Court will specially convene to examine into the cases of several lawyers accused of slight irrega- Jarities in their practice, or, to put it more senten- ‘tiously, sharp practice. Meantime, some new and im- portant rules have been arranged for the government of this Court, the points of which are worthy of special notice by the profession. Under these rules itis. pro- vided that hereafter the calendar of appeals from orders will be called during the first week of the term. After the first week the same will not be called except upon the motion days of the term, on Friday of each subsequent week, No case on such calendar will be set down for any day after the first week, except it be one of such motion days. During the first week of term the day calendar of such appeals will includeall those on tho general calendar undisposed of and not postponed. On the argument of such appeals not more than o1 counsel shall be heard on each side, and then not more than fifteen minutes each, except when tho Court shall otherwise order. Appeals from orders may be sub- mitted by the parties at any time during the term by delivering the papers to'the ch All motions to cor- rect the calendar must be made during the first week of the term. Motions to dismiss appeals may be made on four days’ notice on any day during the first week of the term at the opening of the Courk In enumerated cases the note of je filed with the clerk shall tate whether the papers have been printed and served in accordance with rule 60 of the Courts; and no enumerated case wili be put on the calendar {n which such statement is pot made, or in which such papers have not been pm and served, unless on the special order of the Jourt. Twenty cases will be put on the day calendar of enumerated causes on each day; and when put on such calendar no reservation or postponement will be allowed, except by order of the Court on special causo shown, At any time after the term commences, and bofore an enumerated cause shall be placed on the day calendar, the respective counsel may ile a written con- sont with the clerk that the cause be set down for a Suture day, and causes so set down will be added to tho day calendar (whenever their adtition will not in- -orease the calendar beyond twenty) at the foot of causes Femaining thereon undisposed of in their relative order on the General Calendar, provided they would have been reached on the General Calendar if not so set down. New notes of issue must be filed, in all cases, eight days before the first Monday in January, 1876, with date of appeal, the number on October Calendar, andthe name of the judge who tried the case. The note of issue must further state whether appeal from order or a judgment, or the same will not be placed on ‘the calendar, Judges Davis, Brady and Daniels still continue to hold this Court. Judge Barrett bas been assigned to hold Supreme Court, Special Term, but it 1s probable that he will only hold it for the first week, as he has also been assigned t hold the Court of Oyer and Terminer. Some new rules worthy of particularization have also been issued ‘with reference to this Court. The Clerk of the Court is ordered to make up a new calendar of issues of fuct for the Special Term for the month of January next. Daring the first week of that Special Term motions to correct the calendar may be made, After that week she calendar will remain unchanged, and continue to be the calendar for every successive Special Term during tho year until ail the cayses on it shall be tried, ‘each Special Term beginning on the calendar where the immediately preceding Special Term left off, and new causes will be entered ag part and in continuation of the permanent calendar, and so on, from Court to Court, until theend of the year. These regulations do not affect the question of noticing the causes for trial ag the statute may require. Parties by filing s consent, in writing, with the Clerk before any cause fs placed on the calendar, may have the same on the Special Term ndar reserved generally. Parties by filing a consen'! writing, with the Clerk,» may have any cause which bas been reserved gen- erally or marked off for the term at any previous term placed on the day calendar, or by applying to the Court at Special Term on a notice of two days therefor. A new calendar of demurrers will be made up for each term, which will be called on ‘the first day of the term. Twenty-five causes from the Calendar of Issues of Fact will be placed upon each day calendar, unless the Court otherwiso order. of issue for the January Term musv be filed on or before December 2, 1876, No cause will be placed on the new calendar unless a new note of issue be filed on or before that date. No cause on the present calendar will be placed on the new calendar unless a notice be filed with the clerk on or before the 24th of December, stating that the eame has not been disposed of or settled, In Supreme Court, Circuit, Part 1, Judge Donohue will preside. Supreme Court, Circuit, Pigt 2, will bo held by J) \go Westbrook, and the Circuit, Part 3, will be heid by Judge Lawrence. In respect to these courts some new rules have also been promulgated. A new calendar i to be made up for January, lt6. The day calendar is to commence with the case next succeed- ing on the present General Calendar the cause last tried in December, and to continue to theend of the present calendar. Causes noticed for the first time for January ‘Term are to follow on the General Calendar according to the date of issue. No cause on the present calendar is to be placed.on the new calendar, unices @ notice is filed with theclerk on or before the 16th inst., stating that the same has not been disposed of or gettied, and spect- fying thereon the date of issue and the number on the present calendar. The calendars in all of these courts are unusually heavy. During the first half of tho month Judge Davis will hold Supreme Court, Cham- bers, and during the residue of tho term Judge Brad: will preside, _A8 stated above, Judge Barrett will hold the Court of Oyor and Terminer. This Court, however, docs not meet until the 13th Inst, The only important cases on the calendar aro those of ex-Coroner Croker, for the alleged murder of John McKenna, and Michaol Finnell, who shot the Irish giant O’Baidwin. The rest of the calendar i#,made up of mimor homicides, The intention is, if possible, to mako @ clean sweep of the calendar. In all the bramchewof the Superior Courts there are Jikewise very boy calendars. The General Term of Court will be held by Judges Monell and Curtis; the Special Term by Judge Sedgwick; Trial Term, Part 1, A Judge Spier, ana Trial! Term, Part 2, by Judge urtis, Similarly heavy calendars aro likewise a foatnre of the December Term of the Court ef Common Pleas, In the Equity Term Judge Robinson will preside; in Triel Term, Part 1, Judgs Larremore, and in Trial Term, Part 2, Judgo Loow, In the Trial’ Terms the calendat has been renumbered and reindexed. New numbers of cases can be had by ceferring to index in the clerk's office, The next term of the Circuit Court of the United States, criminal branch, for this district, Judge Bene. dict presiding, will opem on Wednesday, December 8. ‘The calendar is somewhat smaller then usual in the umber of cases, but the matters to be tried are im- rtant and will absorb agreat deal of time, The cases Include those of Tho United States vs. David Lawson and David Lawson and othora, for sunning away with a vessel; Charles L, Lawrence and Charles J.

MONEY LETTER THIEF CAUGHT. William J. Kelly, a letter carrier attached to the General Post Office in this city, was arrested yesterday by United States Special Agent B. K. Sharrett, of the Post Office Department, for alleged theft of money from a letter intrusted to him for delivery. It appears that for some time past money letters passing through one department of the New York General Post Office have mysteriously disappeared. Postmaster James detailed Captain Sharrett to work up the case and it was dis- covered that a letter bo to Kelly and containing a lottery ticket did ‘not reach its destination. Kelly’s route was along Broadway, Fulton and.adjacent streets, and having been for many years connected with the Post Office here he was well known and much re- spected, He was well known also as a favorite short- stop in baseball matches. Captain Sharrett yesterday morning prepared a decoy letter, containing a one dollar greenback, a fifty-cent stamp and two twenty-five cent stamps. Each piece of the money was marked, ‘The letter purported to be signed by John H. Early, was directed to Messrs, Joseph Bates & Co., of No. 202 Broadway, New York, and was postmarked ‘sLynehburg, V: December 1, 1876.” Captain Sharrett took the letter to the Superintondent of the city delivery and saw it ay mn to carrier Kelly. Tho letter was not delivered. ly was then arrested and the m: 1d money found on his person. The lettei a lope were not found, The prisoner was taken be- fore ited States Commisstoner Shields, and com- mitted under $2,000 bail for further examination on Mond The unfortunate man seemed to feel his posi- tion keenly, and averted nis face whenever any one looked at hla, A NOVEL ASSESSMENT .OASE, In the Special Term of the Court of Common Pleas a decision of spectal interestto property owners in the matter of paying assessments was given yesterday by Judge Robinson, John W. Salter purchased a lot on Nineteenth street trom Stephen Wood, and received a deed of the property. There was an unpaid assessment on the lot of $198 10 fer paving. Subsequently Wood commenced proceedings to have the assessment set aside on the ound of aie wa Meantime, the amount of the assessment has been deducted from the purchase money for the lot. On account of the non-payment of the assessment the city threatened to sell the property, and to avoid this Salter paid the amount, but under protest. The suit brought yy Mr. Wooa was decided in bis favor. Mr. Salter thereupon brought suit against the city to recover the amount of the assessment which he had paid. A de- murrer was made.to the complaint, on the greund that the money was yoluntarily paid, and, therefore, could not be recovered back, and further setting forth that the money was not paid into the city treasury.

The Secretary and Treagurer of the Emigration Com- missioners, Mr, Jackson, has furnished data, from which is learned the rate of immigration to this port dur- ing the last eleven months and also how to predict pretty accurately what it will be during the current month, From the figures it will be perceived that the falling off in arrivals at New York during the present year, as compared with 1874, is about fifty per cent. The figures representing the arrivals of passengers from Europe for the last two months, compared with the same periods in 1874, are:— 1874, 1875. October........ + 10,673 6,722 November ... ss 1897 4,506 ‘The complete estimate for ntire year, terminat- ing on the last of this month, gives an aggregate of but 86,000 souls who have arrived at this port in that period from all parts of Europe, The following comparison of the total influx of im- migrants at New York in the last five years is given for the purpose of showing how alarming has become the decrease of transatlantic contribution to the American labor markets :— Immigration for 1871. Immigration for 187: . 208,674 Immigration for 1873. 7,854 rmmigration Hg + 140,399 mm on for Soe The German and Iris! fibfaatt nekety elem fifty per cent, and the Scandinavians and Italtans have shown an equally great proportion of decrease. Among the most desirable classes of immigrants are those from Ruasia; they usually bring money with them and fettle upon public lands. They generally go to the far West, but a considerable number of families are ex. pected soon in South Carolina, BUSINESS FAILURES.
