THE COURTS. i if | A Mother Seeking the Custody of, Her Daughter, | UNVEILING THE FAMILY SKELETON. A Novel Legal Advocate Convuls- ing the Court. SUBSTANTIAL PHASES OF MATERIALIZATION. Almira Sutherland, s daughter of one of the oldest and best families in Patchogue, Loug Island, was mar- red about: lifteen years age to Harry M, Sutherland im that village, Shorty atter their marriage they came to this city aud have since permangatly resided here. The taion was nota happy one and thelr domestic peace was soon broken by ftleree quarrels, accom. panied, as Mrs, sutherland alleges, by various acts of cruelty on the part of her husband. At last she was forced to leave her husband’s root and seek shelter with her parents, Subsequently she caused her husband to be proceeded against be- fore the courts on a charge of abandonment, and after a lengthy litigation was awarded $5 weekiy for ter support. An appeal was taken by the hasband to the Spectal Sessions, which, after a full hearing, aflirmed the order of tho magistrate adjudging Mr. Sutherland to be a disorderly person and ordering him to enter into bonds for good bebavior and to pay regu- larly the sum awarded to his wife. The husband then snstituted a suit for divorce against his wife, and tho matter having been brought betare a referee the later reported in favor of the plaintiif. The Court refused to confirm this report, and the wife, who in the mean- time hid instituted across action against her husband, Was niore successful in bes suit, During the pendency of these litigations the sole fruit of this unbappy mar- riage—a child-named Carrie J. Sutherlund—was placed in tue oustody of Mr, James Sutherland, better Known us “Bob Hart,” @ brother of tho hasband, and tho mother, deeming herseif the jawfal custodian of the child, procured trom Judge Brady a writo! habeas corpus compelling Mr, Hart to produce the child in court, Iu accordance with this peremptory summons Mr. Hart yesterday made an appearance in Supreme Court, Chambers, foliowed by the adolescent feminine bone Ol coutention, The girl—a young Indy, to all appear. kuce—was dressed in tho beigtt of iashion, and en- duwed with singular beauty. Mer mother and Mr, Hart were uiso present, and, while waiting for the case to be called, they occupied a seat in one corner of the gourt room-and chatted quite cosily together. Mr, Douglas A. Levein, Jr,, appeared tor the mother and Mr. Edmund £. Price lor Mr, Hart, Mr. Levoin usked that the Court order a reference as to which Was the more proper custodian of the child—the mother or Mr. Hart. Ho claimed thatthe child had been influenced against the mother, and that be could bring proot to substantiate this statement, “The child has been with Mr, Hart for three years,’” said Mr, Prico, and added, Mfr. Hart can explain the whole case to Your Honor.”? “T buve heard Mr. Hart as a lawyer more than once,” sald Judge Brady, “although not exactly im a court of justive."” ‘ Judge Brady called the young lady upto him and conversed with her for some minutes, ulter which sue resumed her former seat. “Linink,?” said Judge Brady, “she is old enough to choose lor herself, From her conversation with me 1 see she strougiy desires to remain with Mr, Hart."” “It Your Honor please,” said Mr. Hart, rising ond addressing Judge Brady, “this whole proceeding 13 actuated by spite and spleen, 1 have been brought down to this city from Boston, at the loss of n week's kalary of $100; and, as to undue influence, there is no undue influence in tho caso—there is no Returning Board here. (Great laughte 1 deny the allegation play the alligators, as we say tn our ‘Leg of Mutton rial, When the concluding sentenco of this characteristic bration was reached the merriment in the court room was entirely uucontrolied, Judge Brady himeelt being Quable to restrain bis laughter. After some further dis- cussion Judge Brady concluded to udjourn the matter until next. Wednesday, when the Court will proceed to take testimony to ascertain who ts the proper cus- todian of the young lady. SPIRITS AND WATER, Not long since Thomas R.

MARSHAL SHARPE SUED. ‘One of the numerous cases arising out of the failure of Legrave & Co. came to trial yesterday betoro Judge Sedgwick, of the Superior Court, the title of the action being Doyle vs, Sharpe. Under tne directivas of Le grave, bis salesman and confidential clerk in Muy, 1872, packed up eight cases of goods and sent them to Philadelphia, intending to sel! them there. On arriv- Ing at Philadelphia he tound that Legrave’s creditors were on the track, so he reshipped them back to New York. On the evening of the 29h day of Muy he ne- potiated a sale of the goods to # Mr. Landers, in the employ of H.

Describing stages of drunkenness is often attempted by witnesses in the courts, and tho descriptions vary according to the standpoints from which the witnesses regard conditions of inebrity, Such a description was sought to be evoked yesiorday in a cuse on trial before Judge Van Hoesen, holding Special Term of the Court of Common Pieas, The title of the case 1s Spajissey vs, McNamara, the suit having been brought to set aside a contract of salo on the ground that when the plaintifl made such contract he was too mach under the influ- ence of bibulous compounds to kuow at he waa about. “You saw the plaintiff just after ho signed the con- tract, did you pot?’’ the witness was asked. “L did, sir,” answered the witness. “What was his condition ?”” “Well, be was in this sort of condition. He snapped his finger in this way (witness illustrating the tinger snapping), and then said, ‘Come on, boys, we'll bave a » (Laughter, which was with dilliculty id by the court officer). @ drunk ”’ pursued the counsel, “Drunk a8 Billy be damned,” answered the witness, and then another outburst of laughter followed, almost impossible to check. Judge Van Hoesen, when the laughter had subsided, sevorcly rebuked the witness, after which.he toned down in his description, CIRCUMLOOCUTING DEVLIN. Jadge Brady, in bis opinion published in yester- day’s HERALD, on the application on behalf of Charles Devlin to vacate the judgment entered against bim as surety for William M. Tweed on the indictments found in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, intimated, as will be remembered, that the Court of Common Peas was the proper tribunal before which to make the applica- tion, the judgment in the case having been docketed in that court, Application was accordingly made ycs- terday, before Judge Van Hoesen, holding Special Term of tho Court of Common Pieas, to expunge the docket*of judgment. After oxamming the papers apd authorities cited in the case Jugge Van Hoesen wrote tho following memoranda of decision ;— “Motion denied. The Special Term ‘his court can- not under the rule disturb a judgment entered upon a forfeited recognizance. Moreover, if the Court of Appeals should be of the opinion that the recogni- zauce was properly estreated I know of po way in | which a now judgment may be entered upon that re- cognizance. It ts suggested that application ought to be made tothe Comptroller and Attorney General.” From these decisions It appears quite manifest shat Mr. Doylin before he reaches the goal of a final de- cision will thiuk he 18 acting a rather promment part in something akin to the great circumiocution office so graphicaily described by Dickens, SWIFT-FOOTED JUSTICE.

A piece of property was sold tn this city on the lst day | of November, 1876, tor $120,000, and the title was to be closed upon the Sth day of December, Gn that day the parties met, the seller attended by William Henry Arnoux, bis counsel, and the purchaser attended by ‘William M.

THE RUSSELL MURDER. HALLENAN PLEADS GUILTY TO MANSLAUGHTER IN THE YOURTH DEGREE, AND SENTENCE SUSPENDED, John Halicngn was arraigned yesterday In the Kings County Court of Seesions, before Judge Moore, charged with the killing of William Russell on June 27, 1871, The prisoner pleaded guilty of manslaughter in the fourth degree. Immediately after the murder Halle- nan disappeared from the city and went to Chicago, Il, where Le remained a long timo with- out discovery, From Chicago he went to Sao Fran- cisco, Chief Campbell, tracing tallenan to that city, sent on his photograph, and in May, 1876, ho was ar- rested by Detective William H. Keyser, of that city. The prisouer made no resistance aud Stated that he was glad they haa tound him. He was timuedtately brought on to Brooklyn, when he stated that the dispute between himself and Russell arose from tho fact that Russell bad relused to pay his share of the ice money with the other stevedores of the gang and yet insisted on drinking tho water. A scuillo ensued and be struck Russell over the bead with a barrel stave, He did not know that he had inflicted g fatal Injury when he leit the city, and he had been in Chicago some time before ho beard of Russeil’s death, He then would bave given himself ap bud bis wite and children been provided jor. The Grand Jury found an indictment of manslaughter against the prover soon alter his re- turn. After the prisoner was removed from tho court room Judge Moorgsaid that be had never known in ail bis experience a similar case; that 1 was a most remarkable onc. The prisoner had come on trom Calitornia without a4 requisition, und while travelling that long distance a handcuff had never been put upon him, The detective who had charge of him was taken very ill auring the journey, and Hallenan, instead of escaping, as be had every opportunity of doing, uursed the olll- cer and kindly cared tor bim. Wheu the Court reas- gembiled Hallcnan was brought up for sentence. Judge Moore, *efore passing sentence, spoke of his good character previous to the assault and his remarkable behavior since bis arrest, [y view of all this, and in concurrence with the District attorney, he Would discharge him on bis own recoguizance, to appear for sentence at any tme the Court may're- quire, As Hailenan passed trom the court room he was. shaken heartily by the band by wany of his inends, COURT OF APPEALS, Axbayy, Dec, 13, 1876, The following business was transacted in the Court of Appeals to-day :— No. 03.

THE BRIDGE WIRE, WHAT THE BRIDGE PEOPLE THINK OF THE VIEWS OF MR, ALBERT HILL—THE sTELL AND WIRE MANUFACTURERS. ‘The engineers of the Brooklyn Bridge Company are still engaged in testing the different samples of wiro furnished by the bidders on. the tast specifications, ‘The work bus been somewhat tedious, as some eight or ten bids baye been made and in nearly every cuse | three to four samples sent in, exhibiting different qualities of stecl Most of the 8 Lave been made with sbort pieces of wire measuring froin five to ax feet, and in nearly every case where the wire bas been tesied ul that length the result bas been satisfactory, se in severul instances it has stood a strain of 3,000 and even 6,000 pounds when the Ggures mentioned in the i 401 specifications are only 8.400 pounds. ‘The tests on long pieces of wire, for instance, 120 tect, have not Leen so sausiuctory, as some eauipies have broken under a strain of less thay 2,500 pouuda. ‘The imterView in yesterday’s Hxwatp with Mr, Alvert Hill, consulting engineer, has wed considera- bie excitetvent among the people connected with Bridge Company, and during the aiternoon sh ments tude therein were Irecly dscussed. Ag a ru the employ és are very mueh annoyed with tho pubit- Cation of Mr. Hill's Views, aud claim that they are not founded on tacts, being merely written ix whe ine terest of some disxppointeu see! mavutacturer. ‘They appeared ravher surprised when they tound that Mr, Hill Was merely @ ciizen of Brooklyu interested in the progress of the work, and not m any Way connected with the steel or wire busimess A ilakalo reporter paid a vinit to pier 20 Bust Itiwer and enw Mr. Martin, one of the engineers, Che reporter asked Mr. Martin if he would have any objection to expla the differences botween the first and secong tions, us tmentiowed by Mr. Hiliia bis wterview, Martin said be would very much Like (uv expiain the mutter, bat he did not consider it his place to speak ou the subject, and advised the reporter to go und cee ¥r, Henry ©.

MISTORY OF TH DIFFICULTY. It will be remembered that vir. Spader, a resident of | Brooklyn, some me since procured un tujunction against the Elevated Rutlroad, restraming it from cou- structing or operating its line ucross she edge of the Batery within the limits of the park. Mr, Spader, who owns & storehouse iu the vicinity, stared the grounds of his objections ag follows First—Bocause the permission given by the city for | this use of the Battery ts a preach of 4 covenant ta | the decd by which tie ely conveyed certain lands to | One Stnith, the piainiif!’s predecessor in titie, ‘n June, is. ss |“ Second—Because it is jer iolation of w trust created | by an act of the Legistature passed March, 1790, pur | porting to release to the city the rights of the State in certain premises descrived in that act. The counsel for the road, ex-Judge Emott, in argu- ing against the graniug of ab injunction, held that the | property of the complainant 18 wot shown to be in- | Jured by the acts wach be seeks to restram, It is a { Warehouse surruaoded by warehouses, It 1s used and | occupies sviely tor the purpose of sturage, Neuer it | nor any property pear it is occupied for uwellings. It | is 300 feet trom the street adjoining the Battery, and the Whole intervening space is occupied by warehouses. The ratlroud does not propose to take nor touch his property; it does not come within S00 leet of it, Mas | Property 13 situate i 4 cross street runing perpen- dicularly to the Battery and to the railroad | track. "His property does not trout on the railroad £0 a8 even to be afected by its construction or use; bor does it Iront on the Busery so as to | be allected by any use of that pluce ‘or park. | He ts, therefure, ‘asking am Injunction against a uro of public property to which the State by its Logis- lature aud the city by Its authorities have consented, he not being a citizen of tue city of Now York, with out showing auy other interest 1 the question than that of every other citizen of the Site of New York, and without proving or alleging avy ypecial, suil Jess any irreparable, injury to property. Ln, fact, the use to whieh it is cluitned’ by the plainuif thas the whole of the Battery was aedicuted (the erection of forts and public buildings) would bave been, 1 every way, much more an injury to any adjacent property than the erection of posts supporiing such a structure fe that of the defondants, ana the use whieh they pro- pose to make of 1% Counsel also claims that 1¢ 13 uot true, as asderted by the couusel for the plainul, that it i totended by anybody to turn the whole Lepage? d into u ratiroad depot, nor is there apye thing from whigh each a purpose in any remote future | can be conjectured, The possible abuse of a power by Public officers is no argument against ie existence. rv) other band, {¢ inight be suggested that this suis is promoted, if not brought, net by a plarntit! who really (eels that his property ts injured or who manifests that jeeling by auy active iusterest or participation in the litigation iu person, but really in the interest of certain corporatiuns who desire 10 throw every impedi- meat in the progress of a rapid transit road up she eust side of the city, Ifthey can arrest tts Orst step they will eripple what they imagine will be a tormida- big competitor in their busmoss. THX FORTHCOMING ARGUMENTS, Notwithstanding these aud other arguments touch- ing the invaliaity of the complaiuant’s ground, the in- Junction was issued, and thereupon un appeal was \aken to the General Term of the Superiur Court. This Court does not sit untitl January 2, when argu. ment will be had and the injunction tc all probabiity dissolved, So strong 18 the conviction in the com- pany’s mind that the appeal will be successiul that all the necessary Preparations (or constructing the Bul> tery branch bave Leen made, PROGRAMME POR THE YUTURE.
