g THE COURTS. A Brilliant Jury in a State of Confused Bewilderment. Matrimonial Infelicities and Expensive Litigations. Important Decision as to City Advertising. Claim of John C. Heenan’s Widow on a City Contract. Ti trial of the suit of John J. O’Brien va. Joseph G. Browning and others, which bas been in litigation for some years past, and in which there has been one trial | restiting ip disagreement of the jury, has occupied the time of Judgo Barrett, holding Supremo Court, Circuit, Part 1, for the last eight days, The suit was broughtin | 1874 by the plaintill, a judgment creditor of Joseph G. | Browning, to set aside cortain conveyances made in 1868 by Browning to his two sisters of real estate in Filth and Sixth streets in this city on the ground tbat the ronveyances were void as against creditors, The jary baving been direeted to return a sealed verdic came into Court yesterday morning, and upoa epeni vheir verdict tt was found to be a general verdiet for the plainti(f. The Court, under objection trom the counsel for the defendants, sent (hem out to consider their verdict anew, With hour they came back te the Court for further instructions, “Upom what do you requ nstructions !" Judge Barrett inquired as soon as the jury had taken their Beats. “We are sorry to disturb the Court,” apologetically téphed the foreman, rising to his t “but some of Ys don’t quite understand the meaning of the word ronveyances, and wont like to have you explain it tons. A Veritable bombshell would not have startled balf as mach Judge Barrett and the counsel and the wit- esses still retnaining in court, For over a week the esses bad been testifying about conveyances, the counsel had argued about conveyances and the Judge had ruled about conveyances, and, in fact, convey- ances were the solo subjcet matter of the suit. Jude Barrett, b ily explained the meauin with no Tererence—as it was sn been done with great pro- | priety, under the circumstances—to the Imperial cor veyauce of the late Emperor of France, now on E hibition in Broadway, or to wheelbafrows or dog carts. Following the explanation the jury again leit, and after being out again for about four hours they brought in a verdict answering the questions as to the frauduiont intent in favor of the plaintiff, but allowing to the sis- ters the price agreed by the brother to be paid for the houses which he bought ot them, It was claimed by counsel for the defendants that the verdict was void | and should not be received, but the Court overruled | the objection.

DENIAL OF THE APPLICATION FOR WRIT OF ERROR AND STAY OF PROCEEDINGS—WHAT THE CONDEMNED MAN SAID ON RECEIVING THE NEWS—FURTHER EFFORT TO BE MADE. Yesterday Justice Calvin E. Pratt, of the Supreme Court, whoon Monday last heard the argument of Messrs. Beach and Mott, counsel for Pesach N. Ruben- stein for a writof error aud stay of proceedings, ret dered his decision, whichis adverse to the prisonet The tain exception was in reference to the testimony of Dr. A. W. Shepherd, who made the post-mortem examination of the body of Sara Alexander. He was asked to tell on the trial, «8 on expert, how the wounds on the neck were inflicted, The question was objected to, but = was aamitted by the Court, The witness then testified that he should judge the murderer stood behind bis victim and cut her throat from left to right In the argument for a writ of error counsel contended that the doctor could not testify asan expert, They argued further that there was no blood found on Rubenstein's clothes except two small spots inside the sleeve of his coat. In answer to this Judge Pratt cited a case tried before the ful! bench of the Supreme Court of Massachusetts, in which the testimony of Dr. Henry J. Bigelow as an expert, on the trian! of Samuel M. Andrews for the murder of Cornelius Holmes, that “to have broken the skull of the victim into so many pieces must have re- quired repeated blows,” was taken despite the objec- tions of the defence. Later in the day Messrs, Kintzing and Mott, counsol for Rubenstein, notified District Attorney Britton that they wili apply to Judge Brady, of the Supreme Court in this erty, to-day at two P.M. for a writ ot error and stay of proceedings. HOW THE PRISONER MkagD is WATE, Shortly afer the rece pt of the news of the denial of the motion in behalf of Rubenstein, one of the jail at- tachés visited the cell of the condemned man, who was engaged in reading a treatise in Hebrew on the Talmud. The Visttor bade the unfortunate man "Good morning,’ in the German language, when the prisoner pat his book aside und approached bim, asking with a quick, sharp tone of voice, “Is the to-day?’’ *Yes, there is news,'’ was the reply, Rubenstein changed color slight nd his voice was somewhat tremulous as he asked, ‘1s it good or bad baw rd have to tell me?" elie The prisoner started back a step and hung down his head, as though in great agitation G “Yes, Rabenstin,’? said the visitor, “Judge Pratt has refused to grant you a stay of proceedings. “What time is it now?”? asked the prisoner, looking up at his intormant, “It is about eleven o'clock,” was the reply. “What time was it when the Judge pave his de- cision!" | “It wanted twenty minutes of ten o'clock when the decision was made known by the Court.” There was another brief pouse in the conversation, | when his mformant asked, “Do you now mean to soy whether you are guilty or pot guilty of the erime of murdering Sara Alexander?” Looking angrily at his questioner, phed, with emphasis, “No; [ will never say that I am gully butt they will only give me a ebance I kaow that 1 can prove my innocence.” “How can you prove your innocence, Rubenstein %"? “Phat 1s none of your business,” was the quick and tart rejoinder. “Do you want to see your rabbi and receive religions comiort?

THE NUISANCE TO BE ABATED AND THE AB- ATTOIR BYSTEM ENFORCED. Many months ago the Board of Health resolved that, afier July 15, 1875, slaughter houses in the city should be abolished and the business of preparing ant- mais for food confined to two abattoirs—one on the west side and one on the east side, The proposition met with so mach opposition from certain quarters, and from the butchers hkely to be affected thereby, that the Board failed to carry out their decision, A! consequences, the abuses attending the killing of ani- mals have continued; and although the establishments are inspected daily by the sanitary police, dnd weekly by the District Health Inspector, it ts found impessible to Keep thom elean. Yestetday morning, by invitation of the Board of Health, the representa- tives of the city journals met them at eleven o'clock and made an extensive exam nation of all the princi- pal establishments on the east and west sides, The secret of the proposed imspection was carefully guarded, so that the owners could not ‘‘clean up” to receive the visitors; yct when President Chandler, Commissioner Janeway, Sanitary Superintendent Day, District Inspector Humilton and the reporters appeared in First avenue, near Forty-third street, and began the tour of the slaughter houses many were prepared for the visit. The entire district bounded by First avenue, the Rast River and Forty-third and Forty-fth isoreupied for slaughtering purposes. The es- nt ui Mr, Douohue, between Forty-second and third streets, where cattle and small stuck cre Killed, was quite ‘dirty. The establishment of Davis & Harrington, which kills about 200) sheep a! day was decidedly filthy. The yards attached to J. t. Rodmun's place was in a bad sanitary condition, but the interior was cloan. But little Jautt could be found with the house of Lehman, semacis & Bro., Henry Eisner, Rosenbeeker & O Riegieman & C v derbeck aud Reitscl Bros. A poruioa of th ment of Stemreich, Fleischuuer, and Schwartz, & Schulzbacker were very fithy. Inthe rear of ner's and Kugleman’s establishinents are many tene- ment houses, the jomates of which in hot weather must suffer y great annoyance from the smell and the unsightly scenes attending the slaughter of the animal: That portion of Forty-third, Forty-tourth . D. establish. hild and Forty-tilth streets, east of First avenue, 1s completely lied by wagons and piles * of Offensive’ matter; and all these impressed | the visitors with the necessity fer the rooting out of the nuisance, if the business can be conducted else where with iittte or no oflence, as the Health authori- ties claim can be easily done by concentrating the bust- hess in two or three abattoirs, On the west side the establishinents were lout in much better condition in point of cleanliness, and not so objectionable, owing to their isolation from tenements. The premises of Tobey Booth, Caries White & Sun and Spring & Hynes, and the Western stock yards were ag clean uy it 18 pos- sible to keep them, In this district abut 6,000 anitinals: are killed daily, single firms slaughtering as high as 800 heads. The premises of Peter Metntyre, Mr. Sterns and some few other firms were found lacking in sanitary cure. MeIntyre’s place is in rear of tenement houses, and it must be an eyesore to the residents in the hot summer months, A visit was made to the Manbatta abattoir, | where the most approved apphances were tound for the killing of 4,000 head of cattle per week, which 1s about the total nnmber killed in the city. The com pany bas divided the entire abattoir into forty balks or compartments, 92x15 feet, which they rent to butehers tor $1,000 per year, The cattic are landed on the piers of the coinpany, driven in through a tunnel inte the yards, from whieh they are transierred to tho pens oF the balks, ready tor the slaughter. No extra charge youd the = $1,000 ii made, and all =the reiuse is remoy compiny free of charge, or pureh: mM the tenants at the prevalent market price. There, under the immense Tout, are great tanks lor the ren- dering of fat and the manufacture of blood iuto pou- drevte for fertilizing purposes, and no part of tbe ant- mal is lost.
