10 THE COURTS. Business in the Courts for the March Term. LONG CALENDARS AND PROLONGED —LITIGATIONS, Testimony of Mrs. Watson in the Tweed $6,000,000 Suit. TROUBLES AND TRIALS OF SHERIFF CONNER To-morrow being the first Monday of the month, the _Ourts will then open for the Marchterm. An un- usually busy term it promises to be In all tho branches of the courts there are heavy calendars, giv ingassurance of plenty of work for judges and law- yers, to say nothing of the clients, whose interost in thelr respective suits is not to be regarded as wholly secondary. Speaking of the heavy ealendars—there boing some 2,700 cases on the Supreme Court, Circuit, calendar, nearly 2,500 on the civil calendars in the Su perior Court, Cirenit, and some 1,700 in the Court of Common Pfeas, to say nothing of the cases on tho General Term, Equity, and Special Term calon- dars—it is worthy of being stated parenthotically that burts, as at present conducted in our courts, are slightly Suggestive of the task of Sysiphus. Ifa verdict is ob- tained in a suit an appeal is taken from the judgment, and then. the litigation has all to be gone over again, not once, but very frequently two or three times, before a final decision in the courts of law results. Thero is daily occasion, therefore, to make practical the old Latin aphorism, ‘Alteram ad sortim bene pracpara- fam,” which has been amusingly translated into thyme: When Fortune frowns yo may with hope get tipsy, But when she smiles, suspect the flate'ring gy But thus it has been since courts of justice were es- Jablished and it will doubtiess continue thus to the end of thechaptor. Weare far off {rom the millennium which, according to Oliver Wendell Holmes, will neyer come Till factors take what they give And lawyers Kive what they tuke. The present month opens with the inauguration of a new feature in the courts, 1t has been found that the courtesies between the Bench and Bar have hardly Deen up to the required mark. At least such is the expressed sentiment of a recent meeting of members of the Bar, as declared in a resolution and indorsed by a meeting of the Bar Association, The cue was taken from the recent action of the Court of Appeals, which took the initiative in the matter, nothing more nor less than having the erier of the General Term of the Supreme Court announce the daily entrance into the court room of the Presiding Justice and his associates, and that the members of the Bar thereupon rise and remain standing until the Presiding Justice and his associates are seated, This formality of receptive homage §s also to be adopted in the Genoral Terms of the Supe- | rior Court and the Court of Common Pleas. While some ate great sticklers for court ctiquette and think this a proper mark of respect to the judges and tend. ing to enbance the dignity of the Court, others regard it as anti-democratic, a revival of teudal fussiness, and in the spirit of man worship ana cringing subser- vience It entails absurdly humiliating, wholly unwor- thy a true and independent manbood, volens, all must fall in line, and liliputian lawyers on the advent into court of the brobdignian brothers of the Bench mast rise in their august presence and show | themselves as subservieut us the subjects of a Sepoy Sahib. The Supreme Court, General Term, will be held this mosth by Judges Davis, Brady and Daniels, On the opening of the court decisions wiil be rendered in the cages argued at the January Term of the Court. A new order has been esta! d for the court, taking effect the present term, providing that no caso on the pre- ferred calendar shall be reserved or sei down tor any day after the fret two weoks, and that if the preferred calendar shall be called through during the first two weeks the residue of the teri except Fridays, on | which appeals from orders will be heard, shall be’ de- | voted oxclusively to cases on the general calenda There are no specially important cases on the dar, though, of course, all possessing special intercat for ihe various Nigants. The great trial of the month, although promising, as ‘Uhings look at present, a speedy termination, is the Jontinuation of the Tweed $6,000,000 suit, This trial will be concluded in the Common Pleas Trial Cuam- bers, Part 2, the Court being obliged to change its quarters, owing to the session of the Supreme Court, General Term, and Judge Westbrook was yesterday Bupervising the arrangement of matters in bis new court room with a view to the comfort of the counsel reportei jence To-morrow will be occupied In the further discussion of the renewod motion ot Mr. Fieid for a dismissal of the complaint, anticipated that Charles O’Conor will further enhance the brilhancy of his legal reputatiou in his argument in sition to the motion, The general impression, of at the motion will be denied; but one is very certain, that Judge Westbrook, whatever clusions may be, will base them wholly on the soundest principles of and equity governing thro case, Following on the heels of this trial will proba- Diy be the trial of the $1,000,000 civil suit agaist Tweed.

Irwin, was continued yesterday, beforo Judge Bixby, in the law offices of Messrs, Vanderpoel, Green & Cuming, Mr. Vanderpoel conducted the exam- ination on behalf of the prosecuting corporation and ex Judge Fullerton had charge of the defence. A number of people who are acquainted with the mat- ter have expressed a good deal of surprise that this heavy case, which of mght belongs to the criminal side of the docket, should be taken out of the proper private offices of a law firm, Thi pursued by Judge Bixby im this instance is the subject of much comment. HORACK B. MERRILL'S EVIDENCE, The first witness called by the prosecution was Horace B, Merrill, bookkeeper of the Pacific Mail Com- pany, The object was to prove that checks to the amount of $750,000 were not accounted for in the transfers of the San Francisco agency, then in charge of Messrs. Eldridgo und Irwin. The defence admitted that all the checks now in evidence were not accounted for im the transfer books. Theodore T, Johnson, formerly secretary and trea- surer pro tem., testified that be had known Irwin since the summer of 1874; he separated from the com- pany’s service in December, 1873. ‘The witness said that these checks wero filled out by hun and delivered to the Vice President of the com- pany; Mr. Irwin was in the directors’ room at tho time; the original checks were drawn in favor of A.

THE BREGHT MALPRACTICE CASE. ARRAIGNMENT OF THE DOCTOR BEFORE A BROOKLYN MAGISTRATE. | The individuals who are alleged to have been con- | corned in the sad taking off of Christina Brocht, tho young German girl who died in Newark, N.

Christina disappeared | from her employer's house mysteriously, and Captain Andrews reported the fact to the police. Subsequently Mr. Andrews recetved a letter from a Mrs. Moos, of | Newark, demanding the effects of Miss Brecht, and communicating the intelligence of the death of the girl at her house, Th olice at once com- | munieated with the authorities | and the result was that the body was exhumed and an examination was made by Coroner Vreeland, ot ark, twas found that death was the result of mal- | Practice and an operation for atortion had been visited the house of Dr. Hawker, No. 45 Bleecker | Street, New York, at the advice of Hans Stahr, who | waited for hor outside when she went into | the fatal Shon.

Mr. B, F. Strauss, who appeared as counsel in behalf of the accused, argned that the prosecution bad had ample time to be ready, and 1 was an act of injustice to hold his clients, whose inrucence of crime was clear, Then, again, they could not be held, as the offence, if any wero committed, was not under the jurisdiction of | a Brooklyn magisirate, He hoped the prisoners would bo discharged, The representative of the District Attorney held that now that the crime was concocted in d that, therefore, the jurisdiction of unquestionable under the interpretation Justice Delmar denied all the motions of the statut | for the defence and remanded the prisoners, DISHONEST PENSIONERS.
