Tho psig from the other churches were equaity inter- pans | and the agg: aggregate of accessions is 720, with ive churches, including Ciasson avenuo and Ross street to hear from, Mr. Foote thinks those charches, the same proportivn, would jh the additions up almost to 800.

COLORED CHRISTIANS’ TROUBLES. Yesterday there were many rumors of assault upon Rev. geremiah B. Murray, pastor of the African Mothodist Episcopal church in Ficet street, Brooklyn, ‘woo was compelled on Sunday last to call upon the Police to protect him from a portion of his own flock. Before Justice Riley, yesterday, Willham Thomas, a member of the Board of Trustees of the charch, was charged by Eliza Sommers, a portly member of the congregation, with having assaulted her on Sunday morning by shoving her sgainst a door and doing her bodily injury. Justice Riley set the case down for -x- amination on Satarday next In the noon a HeEraco reportor visited the Flect street cifurch. The pastor is @ tall, stout, fine looking mulatto, ‘about forty years of age. Ho said, in sabstance, that the whole trouble comes through a turbulent minority, consisting of Ofty-mine members, led by a deposed trustee, named Simeon King, against law, order, dis- cipline, the pastor and the wishes of 400 good and Christiun people. King, who was a trustee during tho first year of Mr. Murray’s connection with ana church, objected to the latter exercising the right to prone pe iyo trustee. This man King, whots ed in the saie of clams through the week, was expe fled by the church, [np August last ho mado ap- jication belore the Special Term of the Supreme Court for @ mandamus to compel the Board of Trustees to recognize him as a member of that body. Judge Pratt denied the motion and the Geucral Term ot the Su- reme Court coufirmed the decision of the Special Ferm. Later on in the the dissonting brethren locked the door against Mr. Murray; but a reconcili- ation, upon the coadition that the dissenters should in future abide by the rules of the church and return to the fold on probation, was agrecd upup.

The same committee was also empowered to sanction all expenditures made by the club, I know that, tor myseif (and [ am convincod that it is so with all the other voters at that mecting—fifteen yachts in all), that not the slightest discourtesy was intended to ‘be shown to any of our standing committees, and it never occurred to me that it would inter- fore with bed of bs aa? daties or privileges. Had 1 thought so would not have voted fort. If the ob as 1 now understand it, is unsatisfactory to those committees, and they have any complaint to make of our action, it surely 18 a matter to be discussed among ourselvos and to be remedied at afuture meeting. As the question 1s entirely a do- mestic one | cannot see the benefit of rushing into print with what after all will probably prove a seifie. Relative to non-boat owners not voting, I am not pared at present to discuss such a vital point of ‘our constitution. I may, howe aver that a system which has led to the present result—as shows by the success of the New York Yaobt Club—cannot be very far wrong. ‘‘Non-Yacht Owner’ states that “all the non-yacht owners get for their money is the por- mission to go once a year on the c.ub boat at the June Tegatta.’”” ly, **Non-Yacht Owner’? must havo overlooked (although apparently dating his letter irem the club rooms) the privilege and luxury of the use at all times of one of the most comfortable suites of rooms in the city, with all its appointments and supplies of the best at club prices. he con- sider the use of tho elegant club house at hae Island, where not alone himselt but his frien during the season, enjoy all the advantages of a first class restaurant and marine club house combined, in one of the most charming and accessible situations in New York harbor, no privilege? Further, 1 should like to ask ‘'acht Owner’ what special privileges the boat-owas ynjoy over those who are not owners except thatof voting? If ‘*Non-Yacht Owne! ae |e | with a “Rear Commodore,”’ as he appears to Sure is one of che, most economical aud best matiaged ‘as he said, in the country, what advan into be one the present mode of adminis- tering its YACHT OWNER.

ANOTHER LOCK ON THE CITY TREASURY. Full Text of Mr. Fish's Bill on Annual Expenditures, Aunasy, April 4, 1876. The Senate Commiitee on Cities held a meeting this afternoon to decide what to do with the bill whieh pro- vides that the power to appoint all officers whose term oxpires after the election of s new Mayor of New York shall be vested in the said Mayor, The bill has been mistekenly called an extension of Comptroller Green's term, though in effect it is, as he holds over until the 1st of January, 1877, when his successor, appoiated by ‘the new Mayor, takes his place, The terms of seven school commissioners expire at the same time with the Comptroller's, and their suc- Cessors are appointed in the same manner, As Sena- tors Jacobs and Baaden were absent, the opponents of the bill—Senators Booth and Tobey—were in the mi- nority, and Senators Woodin, Wagner and Morrissey had it all their own way, and voted for reporting the Dill to the Senate. The opposition, in {act, had become quite limp sinco last week, and Booth and Tubey may be said to have tacitly acquiesced in tavor of reporting the bill, It will have no diMeulty in pass- Ing the Senate, but all the elements of opposition to Greon in the Assembly will be invoked to defeat it. It was said to be the original intention to extend the Comptrolier’s term for five years, but this was clearly too impolitic ‘a course to adopt. A billto make the office eloctive will be introduced in a few days. NNW YOKK’S MONKY BaGs. Despite the fact that the New York charter makes it & misdemeanor for any head of department of the city government to exceod its annual appropriations, many ways have been found by which the law has been re- Poatedly set at defiance. The Fish bill, ordered ton ‘hird reading to-day in the Assembly, it is believed will remedy the evil, but it is diMcult to see how it can if the sec tion of the charter which is 80 gent as to subject to removal from office every off- cer who wilfully violates any provision of the act can be evaded so persistently as {+ has been. The bill which I append in full, bas boen changod from its original form, so that the Dock Commissioners can spend but $500,000 a year, instead of a $1,000,000, and ives to the Board of Apportionment certain powers it originally gave tothe Comptroller, Tho following is the bill as it wtands now:— ‘An wet relative to annual expenditures and appropris- tions on account of the Mayor, Aldermen and Commoualty of the city of New York.
