TH STATE CAPITAL A Debate on Street and Park Improve- ments in New York. THE BILL PROGRESSED. The Report of the Canal Commission Wanted. Anpany, Feb, 1, 1876. The Governor’s Canal Investigating Comiissionhave mot yet made any revort to the Legislature, and Mr, Burleigh would like to know the reason why, anc of- fored a resolution to that effect, After the resolution was read Mr, Burleigh was allowed unanimous.consent to make @ few remarks. He said he represented, in a certain degree, the canals of the State. Fle was opposed to the use of the canals as a political machine, and he stood hero in behalf of ‘the boatmen of the State to urge that any proper measure of reform should be pushed forward, but, that no war should be mado on the canals, Important Business interests are involved an the canals and the millions expended upon them should not be wasted because of the stoppage of im- portant improvements, Alrealy fully ),000 have been ‘wasted through a failure to prosecute the improve- ments already ordered on the Champlain Canal. He honestly desired to get before the house the results of the investigation prosecuted by the commission, Their suggestions would doubtless be of great value to the ‘Legislaturo and to the State at this time, and he trusted his resolution would s| ly pass, ‘The resolution was tabled, debate arising, THE STREETS OF NEW YORK, The bill to regulate and curb the streets of New York, progressed in the house to-day after debate, wili be considered in Committee of the Wholo to-mor- row. No very important amendments were made to it to-day, oxcopt to fix tho aggregate sum of expenditure in 1876 at $750,000, instead of $500,000, and $1,000,000 for every calendar year thereafter. PROCEEDINGS IN THB SENATE, A resolution which is unlikely to receive the imdorse- ment of a Republican Senate was offered by Mr. Schumaker in the Senate to-day, calling for the appointment of four commissioners to be nominated by the Goyornor and approved by the Senate, for the pur- pose 0 igating the State prisons. It provides that witnesses whose testimony may happen to crim- inate themselves shall be exempt from prosecution, The commussioners are to receive $20 a day each as compensation, and their duties are minutely laid down, with the object of securing the fullest possible results, RESTORING POWER TO OYER AND TERMINER COURTS. To give Courts of Oyer and Terminer the af the Supreme Courts of the State now p civil actions of granting new trials to prison conviction before or alter sentence on ex ‘taken at the trial or upon newly discovered evidene and te allow the motions to be heard on the minu! upon the affidavits, is the object of a bill introduced by Senator Starbuck. IRKESPONSIRLE COMMISSIONERS, Commissioners appointed by the Supreme Court for strect openings, &c., have had heretofore pretty much aheir own way, and in many instanecs never made reports of their doings, and felt free of responsibility to any authority. Senator Prince, in a bill he intends to introduce to-morrow, corrects this state of affairs, and makes it imperative on the commisstoners to report to ‘the Board of Supervisors in each county, and grants Jeave to any taxpayer who deems himselfovercnarged for improvements by said commissioners, or their engineer, | to bring action aguinst them to recover such money as they consider themselves defrauded of. MEMORY OF HENRY WILSON, Senators Vedder, Harris and Kennaday were ap- jointed a committees to draw up resolutions on the th of Henry Wilson. Senator Bradley is of Hibernian descent and never fails to celebrate St. Patrick’s day. To give him time to do full justice to the joyous occasion, he proposed ee that tho Legislature adjourn op the 1ith of Mare! : . ‘THE QOVERNOR’S NOMINATIONS, Thaddeus ©. Davis, Canal Appraiser, sent in bis resignation to the Governor this morning, which was about the wisest any coulddo, and the govern upon gent into the Senate the name of Hezekial of Otsego count as his successor, o gress, i ate Went into executive session and referred the momination to the Commities on Canals. The repub- Means doh’t like these tactics of His Excellency. They don’t like the prospect of the whole Canal De- | partment, from the office of tollkeeper up to that of canal commissioner, being in the hands of the demo- crats, The rupture between tbe Governor and thg Sen- ate grows apace, andyneither side appears disposed tow- ard compromise or conciliation. In regard to Judge Southworth the Senate will make a blander if it re- the Governor’s nomination, The universal opinion coe is that Judge Southworth is an eminently fit ap- } “pointinent, Ue has a high ana uni, eghabla record and isa man with much force of character, The ony apprehension felt as.tg Qis congr ni a few Senators cherish some Stall pigue Against him. One of the two constitutional amendments—that re- lating to the abolition of the *hree Canal Commis- sioners, and th bstitution therefor ofa Superiatend- ent of Public Works, to be appointed by the Gover- ‘nol ed the Senate, Senator Bixby voting in the ive, “ta explanation of his vote Senator Bixby says that ‘the measure is one of centralization and anti-demo- cratic in spirit. COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. ‘The dill which provides that the Court of General Sessions, presided over by Recorder Hackett, and that presided over by Judge Gildersiceve, shail have, with the District Attorney, exclusive —_ possession of tho brown stone ‘building in the City Hall Park, was reported favorably the other day by the Committee on Cities. It was recommitted to-day for the purpose of giving a hearing to parties ‘who desire that the Tax Commissioners should retain their present offices in the building and one of the ated of the Marine Court transferred to the building Chambers street. Jonn E. Deviin and John Strahan appeared before the committee in behalf of these par- ties, and it is said that either Recorder Hackett or Judge Gildersieeve will be here to-morrow to make an argument in favor of the bill as it stanas. THE LABORERS’ WAGES. Mr. Morrissey’s bill vesting the authority to regulate ‘the laborers’ wages in the Common Council will be re- ported favorably to-morrow by the Senate Committee on Cities. COMMISSIONER DUNL Mr. John F. Deviin appeared before the Committee ‘on Cities of the Senate in opposition to the bili legis- lating Tom Dunlap, Commissioner of Jurors, out of Office. Pleading for Tom is pleading tn vain, as his doom is already sealed. JACORS’ CONTESTED SEAT. . The Committee on Privileges and Senate cave a hearing to ex-Speaker § ng on behalf of Mr. Cavanaugh, claimant for of Senator Jacobs. As counsel for the clain additional arguments to offer, and the regular counsel for Jacobs was abeent, Thursday was appointed for a farther bearing of th ‘Mr. Hayes’ bill to amend the New York election laws, amends section M4, by requiring the taspeciors to en- close and seal the result of a cauvass on one ticket b fore taking up another, indorsing the envelope with =the nee of the box.

THE CHARITY BALL, A WONDROUS CONGREGATION OF BEAUTY AND YASHION—BELLES AND BEAUX DANCING FOR THE SAKE OF THE POOR. Le ¢ before the birth of the Messiah charity was at- tive, tra word, in the multitudinous writings of Confucius, in | the learned times that present the life of Bud- dha, im the Koran and the Book of Mormon, in the theological poems of Shiraz, whence the Fire Worshippers draw their inspiration, whether with the fierce Bedouin of the desert, with | Investigating | whom the wandering wayferer breaks bread and | is thereafter inviolate; the red man on the plains, who despite bis Ishmaclitish character; the wild Kurd of the Asiatic steppes, the Bushman of the Antipodes and the anthropophagist of the Pacific isles, the spirit of charity seems to pervade the entire human family. The spirit of charity permeates everything that can boast of human origin, For twenty years an associa- table elements in the empire of Mra. Grundy can be classed under the plebeian name of association—devoted themselves to the noble cause “of charity. The Nur- sery and Child’s Hospital, where the little and helpless oues call ior assistsnce and where their utter inability to help themselves demand from the kindly heart special recognition, has now become the synonym of charity. For this deserving institution Mrs. Grundy summons her fair cohorts; for it Worth labors industriously in fashion plates, Tne assembled genius of the Normas of | the Casta Diva of fashion is concentrated upon toilets for sweet charity’s sake, and on cach fair form the ransom of a prince (see mediwval records or brig- and tolls), may be found, The hands of the clock in the lobby of the academy gradually neared the hour ‘when churchyards yawn,’’ before the créme da la creme of the patronesses of the bali arrived. Then they came with a rash, . ‘A drizzling rain, very uncomfortable for the police- men, who vociferated in every key of the gamut dir tion’ to the obstreperous ‘drivers, descended as @ species of fine mist and blurred the caicium light as well as the street lamp in front of the Academy; yet the long and secmingly interminable line of’ caw | blocked Irving place and Third avenue, Never before wus known such a concourse of vehicies at a ball, and many a guardian of the peace will report at the sergeant’s desk this morning with a voice scarcely over a whisper. Up the stens of | the Academy tripped hundreds of daintily shod feet, | and as the carriages rolled away and the profanun vulgus congregated around the entrance, probably to | find a species of Lethe {rom personal discomfort, wit- nessed the scene, there was one consoling thought— “for sweet charity’s sake.” Outside the sceno was | | dreary enough. Inside it was the quintessence of bril- laney. | When the last theatre closed its doors on the depart- | | ing patrons, there was an evident attraction for all the | fair theatre goers toward the Academy. There was, | | perhaps, an hour or so lost fm exchanging theatre tor | ! ball toilette, and in many cases they were | identical. People may have wondered last night to | see in the parquetie, at “Married in Haste,” | | 4 Michel,” “Pique”? or = “Julins Caesar,” | an unwonted display of toilettes and jewels, but the | mystery is explained when it is considered that many esses of the ball wished to visit a theatre before | land cared not to go to the trouble of going | e in the meantime.

The family consisted then of Mr. and Mrs Mattern, a daughter named Mary, aged twenty years; another daughter, four years of age, and Franc. The family circle was broken up by the ejectment of the latter tor a dastardly outrago attempted on the infant, Prosecution has since been threatened him if he did not cease his annoyances to the fam- ily by trying to create disturbances in front of the house, &e., but he did not attempt to enter it again until about six o’clock on Monday night, when, accom- panied by three other roughs, he forced his way into the house and demanded of his sister that she allow him to live there in. One of the fellows had struck and throttled Mrs. Mattern in order to effect an entrance when she opened the door, and, as a natural consequence, she ordered Mary to (ro and fetch a policeman. ‘This enraged Franc, and, seizing the girl, he hfted her up bodily above his head and dashed her heavily to the floor, Then he jumped on her breast, and while his companions looked supinely on he kicked her fearfully about the hoad and body, breaking her jaw, and inflicting such severe in- ternal injuries that no hopes are entertayed of her re- wovery.

James H. Nixon, counsel for tho defence, who had not concluded his remarks at the time of Monday’s ad- journment, resumed his remarks, Referring espe- cially to the plea of insanity offered by the defence, he claimed that it bad been shown by good, competent witnesses and influential citizens—men who had known the defendant Jong and well—that before the shooting and on the fatal day his reason had been dethroned, £x-Chancellor Williamson followed in behalf of the defence. He argued that it had been shown by some of the best surgical talent in the country that the ball in Carruth’s head bad been sately located; that it was encysted and a harmless tenant of the brain, and that from the moment of the shooting the work ‘ot recon- struction had begun, and Carruth soon became conval- escent, The counsel laid great stress upon the fact that the Supremo Court of the State of CLEARED.

Stokes, returnable at White Plains, West- chester county, on Saturday, the 5th inst.,/where that Justice will hold court then, a Heratp reporter called on Mr, Charles W, Brooke, counsel for Stokes, for the purpose of ascertaining the grounds of the application for the discharge of the prisoner, when the following conversation ensued :— ReroxtER—Upon what do you base your theory as to the right of Stokes’ discharge, the four years of his sentence not having apparently actually expired ¢ Mr. Brooke—Stokes ov the 6th day of January, 1873, ‘was convicted of murder in the first degree, and there- upbn the jadginent of the Court of Oyer and Terminer was rendered, ailixing the penalty prescribed by law for such offer From the moment of the record of such judgment Stokes was in custody, and suffering imprisonment thereunder, and continued to so suffer imprisonment for the period of ten months, at the expiration of which period the Court of Appeals re- versed tho judgment of the Oyer and Terminer for error committed by the Court in that trial, The record being remitted upon such’ reversal to the Court of original jurisdiction Stokes was again, upon the same indictment, brought to the bar for trial The result ot which trial—the third trial which he had had—was a conviction of manslaughter in the third degree, the maximum penalty for which offence 18 imprisonment in the State Prison for four years. The act of the Legislature of 1864 that a prisoner whose conduct Shall be unex- Je and Who shall perform ail the duties prop- erly assignable to him by the prison authorities shall earn an allowance or reduction of one year in four through such exemplary conduct. To the petition for the writ is annexed the certificate of Stokes’ entitlement to this commuta- tion or reduction; therefore Stokes absolutely being entitled to be convicted only in the first instance of the crime of which he was legally guilty, if guilty of any, should have been convicted of manslaughter in the third degree, and upon the rendi- tion of a proper judgment upon a proper legal verdict would immediately have entered upon the service of his legal term of imprisonment, to the satisfaction of the legal judgment, The Court of Appeais having de- cided that the trial resulting in the verdict of murder in the first degree was characterized by such error as to induce its reversal, certainly Stokes should not suffer for the error of the Court, and must be en- titled in equity and justice to credit for the restraint and imprisonment imposed upon him by such illegal judgment of the Court, which would make his term ex- pire upon the 6th of January, 1876, FIRE IN BROOKLYN.
