In a few minutes, however, the street was crowded with people. Among the first to arrive were Captain Murphy and Sergeant Tuck, of the Twenty-first precinct. They found Martens ‘dead, but Rodgers still alive. Leaving the dead man they quickly carried Rodgers to. the drug store at the corner of Twenty-seventh street and Third avenue, and at once despatched messengers for surgical aid,’ Ambulance Surgeon Aimy, of Bellevue Hospital, promptly avswered the summons and con- | veyed the dying man to the hospital. The body of Martens was now removed to his lute residence to await he action of the Coroner. HISTORY OF THE CASE. Investigation into the history of Martens’ family revealed a state of matrimonial infelicity. From the date of his marriage tive years ago, w iveling of dis trust and jealousy of his wife affected Martens. The slightest attention received by his wife from other meu was sufticient to make him very angry. ‘The resuit was one prolouged quarrel between the pair, as Mrs. Martens, regardiess o! her husband’s unfortu- je no endeavor to comply with his About'a year ago Martens opened the store st Twenty-eighth street and Iaid im @ large igars, giving lis wife charge of the business while he continied at his trade outeide. i fireman attached to Hook and Ladder 7, the locution of which is a few doors of Martens’ store, He frequently purchased cigars of Mrs, Martens. He also became acquainted with her husband, A few days before New Year’s Day Mar- tens came home unexpectedly and found Rodgers talking to his wife in the kitchen at the rear of the store, His jealou caine aroused and words ensued, during which he ordered Rodgers from the house. On last Rodgers paid another visit to the store | and Martens threatened to shoot him if he ever came in again. The visit lust night was the only one paid since that Lime. After the quarrel op Sunday Martens purchased the pistol with which he commitied the tatal deed. » reporter called at the residence of Mrs. nigut shortly after the tragedy. On the floor was stretched at full length the suicide, with a y hi ghas' © in his temple.

Martens was by birth a Belgian, and about thirty-one Years of age. THE WOUNDED MAN AT TAK wosPiTat. pulance had been summoned at the moment of , and the body of the wounded man was speedily conveyed to Bellevue Hospital. There a littie investigation discovered bis injuries to consist of a wound in phe back of the neck, another im the left side and a third iw the right arm A bullet had also passed through the chin, striking the breast but not entering it. Dr. Stnith, with his assistants, probed the wounds and endeavored to locate the course of the balls, Considerable difficulty was experienced, however, from the different directions they had b fired from, and not a little from the patient himself, who had evidently been undeg*the influence of liquor at the Lime of the shooting, Sod who had not been entirely sobered even by the awful sense of his condition. A PAINFUL SCENE, The scone in the ward where wounded man was stretched was exceedingly paintul. In @ rambling, imcoberent way,*the unhappy mai talked hopelessly of bis situation, and at times spoke of the gray-haired mother whose care he had known #0 long and whose anguish he vow deplored, while out- #ide the screen, which hid from view the movements of the surgeons, an aged woman was weeping for the son who, perhaps, had in many things beeu unworthy of her parental fondness.

ANNUAL ELECTION OF OFPICERS—SECRETARY SOUTHWOBTH RESIGNS—ADDRESS BY DR. 8, W. WILLIAMS. . The meeting of the American Geographical Society held last night in Chickering Hall was attended by as many persons a8 could gain admission. The chair was occupied by Rev. Roswell D. Hiteheock, and upon the platform were Rev, Dr. Adams, Peter Cooper, Profesor Theodore W. Dwight, General Gecrge W. Cullum, Colonel Thomas E. Acton and many other well known citizens, The Secretary ot the Society, Mr. Alvan S. South- worth, having resigned on account of the pressure of bis business, Mr. Francis A. Stout moved a yote of | thanks, which was carried with the greatest enthu- siasm., The list of officers for the present year, which Is | i published below, was unanimously elected, and, after some remarks from the chairman, the lecturer of the | evening was introduced in the person of Dr. S Wells Wilhams, Secretary of Legation and interpre- ter of the American Legation in China, who has just returned from that country after an absence of forty-two years, During the past fow years Dr. Williams has published a Chinese and Engitsh Dictionary of some 13,000 words or characters, and the weli known book called “Che Middle Kingdom,” which Sir Frederic Bruce pronounced the very best book extant about China. ‘The speaker began by glancing at the climate and topography of the Celestial Kingdom and discussing | E | the influence which they had exerted upon the national | character. Thence he passed to its religion. The wor- ship of ancestors and the peculiar position of the Em- peror as the Son of Heaven was given as the reason why China has never been affiicted with pri raft as Egypt and so many other Eastern nations bave. He described the mode of electing officials in China by competitive examinations. He referred to the spirit of progress that bas crept mto China within the past quarter of a century so that now, with her 360,000,000 of people, she only waits for the light | of {he Gospel! to place her in the front rank of nations, The country had been thrown open to foreigners, and the people were anxious to adopt Europeau arts, ‘They were, however, more slow to adopt ap idea and less inquisitive than their neighbors the Jap- | anese, This peculiarity was shown in the | fact that while the” latter people bought steamboats outright, the Chinese merely hired them to see whether any money could be made out of them. Tn this connection the speaker told a humorous story of un ambitious Japanese who under- took to run a steamboat, but discovered, when some distance from shore, —_ that although he had learned to start an engine he knew nothing about stopping one, and was, consequently, obliged to steer his boat round and round ull the fires went out. The highly interest- ing address was brought to a close with a culogy of Dr. William Martin, the American who has charge of the College at Pekin, and whois known, Dr. Will- jams says, by more educated Chinese people than any other “outside barbarian” living. The following are the officers and council for 1876 President—Charles P. Daly. Vice Presidents—Freder. ick A. Conkling, Francis A. Stout, George W. Cullum, Foreign Corresponding Secretary—E.

It highly complimented the work of the commission appointed for that pur- pose. It diso recommended the adoption of that part of the report of Mr. Throop and associates, now before the Legislature, and suggested the appointment of a committce of thirteen to further examine the remarmin, portion of the jaws and make any suggestions deeme necessary. A proposition bas been before the association for some time to suggest the adoption of a constitutional amend- ment, providing for the consolidation of the Supreme, Superior and Common Pleas courts, with equal juris. diction and an increased number of judges A committee was appointed to take this matter into consideration, and a report was made recommenaing the amendment to the favorable attention of the | | Legislature. Last evening the report was called up as a special order, and considerable discussion ensued, Messrs. Tracy, Southmayd and Buell spoke in favor of the amendment, while it was opposed in a lengthy epeech by Mr. E. P. Wheeler. The report was finally adopted and the committee directed to make all necessary arrangements to bring the matter to the attention of the Legislature, after which the meeting adjourned. THE MUTUAL COUNCIL. The action of the Central Congregational church, Brooklyn, Dr, Scudder’s, on Monday evening, in de- clining to accept an invitation to be represented in the Plymouth Church Mutual council, has delayed the completion of the list of churches to which the letter missive shall be sent. Mr. Shearman and Judge Van Cott said yesterday that the list would not be made public until some time to-day, even if it could be agreed upon sooner REVIVAL MEETING. A crowded revival meeting was held at Dr. Ormis- ton’s church, corner of Twenty-ninth street and Fifth avenue, last evening. The subjects con- sidered were ‘What It Is to Come to Christ,” by Dr. Hall, and “What Is Saving Faith?” dis. cussed by Dr. Taylor. The meeting opened by a prayer by Dr. Armitage. Dr. Hall, in speaking of what | it 1s to come to Christ, said:—“My judgment is entirely against taking any long time to speak upon this question. I do tot even choose that it shall be call discussion, A long discussion would be likely to sug- gest what is not true, that coming to Christ is intricate and complicated, The error you need to be warned against 1n coming to Christ is that faith is a strong, im- petuous feeling; a thing done and done with. You 'can- not say, ‘I will go to Christ and be done with it’ It 1s the coming into communion with the chief among ten thousand irom whom you will never part. and when you speak to souls do not dwell much on the manner of coming, but dwell o great deal whom we come, and make them feel that coming to Christ is a continuous state of the soul.” Dr. Taylor then rose and said, “What is saving faith? The difficulty with this question is ite sim- plicity, When the apostle said, ‘Faith is the substance hoped for, the evidence of things not seen,’ he de scribed it pot so much by what it is as by what it does, Faith is the acceptance as true, on the testimony of an- other, that which hes beyond his own experience or aiscovery. Faith, in the Biblical sense, is a belief of what the Bible contains. You regard that book as a letter from God; you are satisfied of its genuineness, It tells you of things past, and you hold them as indu- Some question whether fuith is a merely intellectual act or whether it contains an element of trust, Whether it does so or not will depend enurely on the nature of the truth believed. When taith is merely a speculative thing you may be sure the thing believed in is not the might thing. The true beliet is | the believing of the truth. tay quiet, and it ié not merely the first act of coming to Christ; it is the habit of the Christian’s hie We aro never done believing.” ENCOURAGING» Faith makes the soul HE STUDENTS. Recently the Young Men’s Christian Association conceived the idea of tendering a reception to the | medical students of New York, and in response to their invitation quite a large number of students and other guesis assembled at Association Hall last evening. Mr. William B. Dodge, Jr., the chairman, welcomed the students not only for the evening, but whenever they desired. On bebalf of the students and the facul- ties of Now York, Professor Fordyce Barker, M. D.; T, Gaillard Thomas, M. D., and D. B. St, John Roosa thanked tne Young en's Christian Associa- thon for ite thoughtful reception and counselled the students wholesomely, There was music, too, and song. Mr. Edward G. Jardine played on the organ “The Thunder Storm, '’ Mise Benziger sang “L dreamed I dweit in Marble Halls,” from “The Bo- hemian Girl,” and other selections, Gottechalk’ _ Fantaisie’ for the prano was given by Mr. Sheldon W.
