THE COURTS. Durance Vile Too Much for Human Endurance. BALM FOR BLIGHTED AFFECTIONS. Lovemaking Husbands of Sixty Taught a Good Lesson. AN ANXIOUS CITY FATHER. Growing out of orders of court there is perhaps more persistent litigation and bitter vituperation than in almost’ any other branch of legal jurisprudence, What puzzles the judges most, apparently, 18 the direct contradictory character of the affidavits, One of the most important orders of arrest that has been issued from the Supreme Court for some time is that wsued against Mr. Hardy Solomon, former President of the South Carolina Bank and ‘Trust Company, at Columbia, 8. C., and the complainant tn the case was ex-Governor Scott, of the same State, and resident also of Columbia, Both these gentlemen and their families have had numerous financial transactions, aud last summer spent a good share of the time with their families at Saratoga. They were apparently on the most amiable terms until late one evening, when Mr. Solomon arriving in this city en roule to bis Southern home, was suddenly imterrupted by @ placid gentloman from the Sherifl’s office with a gen- tiv tup on the shoulder and the pleasant information, “You are my prisoner, sir.” Without reciting in de- tail ail the facts of thearrest and subsequent bail, as given at the timo in the Heap, ib is only neces sary to mention the fact that two orders a arrest were obtained against Mr. Solorcen; the first order boing granted upon un affidavit, of ex-Governor Scott that Mr, Solomen had defrauded him out of $4,000, in hav- ing given in exchange a certificate which he knew to be worthless, and the second upon an affidavit that he had defrauded Mr, Hardy out of securities of a large amount, On @ motion to va- cate these orders tnere was a lengthy argument given belore vudge Lawrence 1 Supreme Court, Chambers. A decision was given in the tase yesterday in which both orders were ya caied. Judge Lawrence writes quite a lengthy opin- jou, made up muinly of eltations of previous rulings of the Court in similar cases. He then lays down the broau, logal proposition that “to sustain an order of ar- resi the plainti’ must make vut bis case beyoud a doubt.” He holds that such case has not been made out in the present instance, and therelore gives the de- cision stated. He raises, however, in addition, poit upon which ne lays considerable stress, the fact that Governor Sevtt, although living in the same town with Solomon, bad not brought bis action there in- stead of waiting lor an opportunity to arrest the de- fondant within the jurisdiction of this Court, Hetore Judge Barrett, in Supreme Court, Chambers, there was argued at some length yesterday a motion tw Vacaie an order of arrest against a woman desig- pated under the tiree aliases of Manotle Sperry, alias Iskhadt, alias Beioonius, and said to have many otber aliases.’ She 18 charged by Mrs. Catherive Eyphert with having given her $1,045 worth of forged bouds on dhe Leeds and Parrington Railway Company of Maine. It was urged by Colonel spencer, for the arrested woman, that, being a woman, she could not be held under ‘an ofder of arrest except upon a charge of telony, Mr. Brodsky, the opposing counsel, insisted tbat this was a very flimsy de:ence, and strenuously opposed the application to vacate the order of arrest. Juuge Barrett wok the papers lor examination, ‘A second application, belore Judge Barrett, to va- cate an order of arrest, wus in the cuse of Daniel Web- ster. It was stated that Webster kept a store in Ho- boken, N. J., aud was enticed to go to Brooklyn by a mau uamed Webber, under a pretence of troduction to aparty who would buy the lease of his store. Ou his rewurn he was taken into custody by a sheriff's officer and lodged in jatl, Where he has remained sor nearly a year past, It’ was claiiwed that the arrest was through trickery and, thereiore, void. Ou the otuer hand, it was insisted that the sherit!’s deputies had been layimg 11 wait for Lim fora long time, aud that his coming to this city was through uo desire io eutice bi 1 was addea that be swore hike a trooper When he was arrested and suid that he woula never pay acent ot the judgment unger which he was ar- rested but would rot in jail tirst. present applie cation shows evidently that be is wear of Lhe slow process of decay, As in the previous case, Judge Bar- reli (ook the papers, reserving bis decision. Mary Ruppart brought # euit ia the Superior Court against Jobu Davidson, President of the defunct Manu- fucturers and Builders’ Bank, complaining that he bad converted to his own use a drait jor $3,900, tbe pro- ceeds of which she directed bim to place in a savings bank to ber credit, The defence was neral devia, and an allegation that the money was deposited in the Manulacturers aud Builders’ Bunk, with tuil knowl cage on the part of the pla:utiff of the char. acter of the bank. she bad Davidson prrested, alleging that be had mduced her to believe that the'said bank was @ savings bunk and that be bad agreed to be persopaily respousible tor her y. The defendant made a motion velore Judge Spe tue Supreme Court, to have the order of arrest ya- pated. in his aitidavit Mr. Davidson denies ihe sbarges and states that the money was received in the asual course of business, Judge if yesterday ren- tered a decision denying the motion to vacale the order of arrest. BREACH OF PROMISE DAMAG ‘The suit of Mary Palmer against Aaron Strauss for breach of promise of marriage, the genoral 8 of which have already appeared exciusively in the Henan, was tried yesterday before Juuge Alker and a jury in the Marine Court, The plainuff is a dark tyed and not uncomely brunette, apparently of about the ripe age of twenty-live or twenty-six years, while the defendant 18 of still riper age, reaching to about sixty years, In 1871 the defendant was induced to go to the bouse of plaintiit for the purpose of consulting ber mother, who held terse! out as a forvune teller, lo consult her on some matter of interest to bim, While there, it seems, he grew quite friendly with the daughter, and his vistis became both long and irequent, as he says, for the purpose of consulting the mother, but, as the daughter says, for the purpose of winnihg her affections, “In she testified, that she became | enga to him, but, on one pretence or an- other, he postponed the marriage, consoling her impatience by the urance that “. élow fire burns jongest,”’ and finally postponed it in definitely, About a year after be ceased to lavish his aged attentions upon her, Failing to bring him to lerms she instituted the present suit, laying ber dum- 0,000, She prevented us an exhiv.t in Court agold ring. which she said he gave ber as an engage- ent ring, and iu Were her and tials. d ever baving given ber, and 1 his coansel, Me.

In the matter of the will of the late George William- son, & wealthy capitalist of this city, who died on tho 7th of January last, a contest over the will was begun yesterday in the Surrogate’s Court, led by the widow. The contestant was the second wife of the decedent, vy whom hé had no issue, in the will, which was made somo considerable time before nis death, he made his son, David B, Williamson, by bis first wile, and who at the time of their marriage brought bim a pretty la legatece to the bulk of his riches, some $150,000, with instructions to pay to hia widow the sum of $3,000 annually in place of dower, and if she insisted on her right of dower that the annuity should be withheld, The widow, who has no children by the deceased, contests the will on tho ground that it was obtained through undue iniluence and fraud, and that the testator was of unsound mind ab the une of tho execution of the will, and therefore legally unable to exccute such an instrument.

I., $10,000, to assist im building @ church upon the jot of land bought by the testator for that purpose at Martha’s Vineyard; to the Church of St. Agnes, Forty-ttird street, $10 000, on condition that the testator’s name bo pubtished forever on one of tho windows.

Deputy Coroner Leopold Goldschmidt yesterday held ap autopsy on the body of Maury Flood, which goes to show that the murdered woman receivea two wounds, instead of one, as was at first sup. posed, A stab wound was found on the right side of the chest in the second intercostal ono inch long and an inch and @ bait ‘from the median line, passing directly down- ward, outward and backward, but not entering the chost and merely injuring the muscles There w also a penetrating avdominul wound io th line, injuring the peritoncum, ntery and small | leatines, with very lite internal hemorrhage. In t inion of the Deputy Coroner death resulted from tho = Burrows, accepted the trustecship of @ mortgage | shack and bemorrhage referred to tapes ie | brought before Justice THE CALLENDAR DIVORCE CASE, A WIFE WHO I8 ALLEGED TO HAVE CONFESSED HER FAULT—BEMARKABLE TESTIMONY BE- YORE THE REFEREE, r Not long ago Mra, Callendar, the wife of a wealthy real eBtate broker in Pine street, obtained an injunc- tion which restrained her husband from using in his suit for divorce 4 con‘ession of adultery which, she alleged, be hed extorted from her through, moral coercion and fraudulent representations, The grant- ing of this unique injunction by Judge Donohue, sitting in Supreme Court, Chambers, exclusively reported in the Hxratp at tume. It was probably the first which a husband was thus enjoined from using bis wife’s confession inacourt of law. The parties have resided for some years at Passaic, N. J., where Mr, Callenaar’s father, mother and maiden sis- ter, us well a8 his wife, still live, while he has taken up bis abode in this city, The case, which already bad a boaring last week before Mr. George W. Parsons, as referee, will turn on the question whether the wife's coniession was bond fide or only made, as she claims, to gratify what she considered merely a whim on tho part of her husband, Ia support of the allegation that the conlession was true, the busbana’s counsel will Produce his sister, father and mother, aod a “Dateh’? gardener, residing at the Passaic country house, who will swear that she also confessed to them, An effort will be mado by Mr, Callondar’s counsel to have the injunction dissolved, and meanwhile the suit for di- vorce brought by him against his wife is being tried before the releres MISS CALLBNDAR’S BVIDEXCE. ‘Tho Orst witness at the bearing before the refereo was Miss Belle Callendar, a maiden sister of the plain- UM, who gave he jo atthirty. She swore to several confessions by Mrs, Callendar, mado either to her at tne Passaic residence or in her hearing, On May 3, 1876, Mrs. Callendar came to her aud conlessed baving committed adultery with Dr. Nottingham, and subse- quently she repeated that goulession on soveral ocoa- sions betweon the spring and the fall succeeding. Un these occasions Mrs, Callendar seemed to be overcome the instance in by penitence for the sin sbe had committed. airs, Caliendar came to her sometimes three or jour times a day to speak with ber on this subject, GOING TO CONFHS8 TO FATHKK SNYDER. Miss Cullendar further testified that during the sum- mer, whilo residing at the country house in Passaic, she overbeard a conversation between Mrs, Callendar and ove of the servant girls, in which Mrs, Callendar said to the latter that sho was going to tho Rey, Father Snyder, a Cathole priest at Passaic, and cooiess Lo hit her sin, to which the sharp-witted lrish domestic replied that sbe could not do this very well, us she (Mrs, Callendar) was a Protestant, and beuce po Cath- olic priest would take her coniession, During the summer she was in one of the upper rooms of the and there she overheard auother interesting conversation betwoon Mrs, Callendar und a Dutch” gardener, in the employ of the plaintiff, In this con- versation ber sister-in-law substantially contessed to the “Dutch” gardener that she was guilty, with the reservation, however, that nobudy vould prove it. A POBTIC LOVE SCENE. A remarkable domestic scene which occurred ono winter ning 1» February, 1875, was then detayled by the witness :—In that month Miss Belle did not re- side at tho Passuic country house, but was simply there on a visit, There was quite a party at the house, A young Pussaic widow, wuo was a iriend of AM Belle, a married lady residing in the town and Dr, Not- tingham had come to spend the evening. Mr. Cul.en- dar accompanied the married lady home, and his wite, during bis absence, exhibited to Dr, Nottingham a heliotrope which was pinned to her drogs, and allowed him to inbule its delicious fragrance. Miss Catlendar was rather shocked at this proceeding, but her surprise was heightened when Mrs, Cal- Jendar presently sat down at the piano and sng, ‘fwas but a little faded flower, but ol, how dear! in a most expressive manner, Miss Belle, unable to control her pent-up) indignation any longer, oxclaimed, **Why |!” and the young widow expressed her amazement and virtuous indignation vy the same monosyliabic “Why!” Mis Bole, as she rolated this scene, still showed in hor countenance the indignation which then overcame ber, A REMARKABLE HEARING, Hor direct examination haviug veon concluded by Colonel Wingate, who repeesented Mr, Callendar, Judgo Stephen Fullerton, counsel jor Mrs. Callendar, cross- examined the witness. Mr. Fullerton attempted to show that Mu liendar during the conversation to which she testified was in parts of the house in which she could not possibly bave overbeard them, In one msatanco be elicited the fact that a cer- tain conversation between her sister-in-law and the servant girl took place in the kitchen; that she (the witness) was 1n the sitting room, while between the Kitchen and the sitting room intervened the dining room. In another instance in which she had testified to another conversation which sho alleges took place inthe kitchen it appeared that she was ina room on the floor above, so that she must have heard through the cetling. She explained this cx- traordinary circumstance by tno fact thut Mrs, Callendar an. a servant girl wero spefking in a loud tone of voice, Another remarkable display of ber bearing capacities was turnished by tho witness when she, as It appeared on the cross-examina- tion, overheard 4 conversation with the servant girl, whieh took place up stairs while sho was padsing through the mato hal! below. Mr. Fullerton asked her whether, on 6ne occasion, ns she, her brother and her sister-in-law wero sitting on the pisses, the defendant did not toil Mr. Culiendar shal “she was ocent as the girl sitting beside you” (meaning the witness), and the wituess, after frat de- bying, admitied it Miss Bolle’s cross-examination will be continued at the next hearing belore tho ref- eree on Friday. A YOUNG CLERK’S FOLLY. He was young, handsome and well dressed. ‘His name, as he gave it, was Josoph Ford, and ho was charged with embezziément, The complainant in the case was Mr. Edward C, Richards, of No. 110 East Nineteenth street, his late employer, whoso story was as follows:—About six months ago young Ford called with bis uncle on Mr, Richards and solicited from him a sitaation asa clerk for the young man, At the time all his positions were filled, but ho finally con- cluded to employ him as clerk at a small salary. This was done as the young man had tho highest testimonials of good character and had the appearance of being quite smart. Everything went on woil until a few days ago, when Mr. Richards sent to the Bull’s Head ik, street and Third measenger returned and informed Mr. Richards that his account was then overdrawn. This afforded the first clew to the defalcations of Ford, Au inquiry was at once instituted, and Mr. Richards tound that Ford atdiflerent times had stolen trom bis movey drawer avd cashed checks from his bank © acconnt. During oue wock Ford appropriated tho fol- lowing sums:—January 10, $220; January 11, $202; January 14, $105; Janoary 15, $120; January 16, $139, Mr, Richaras reported the case to the Sev- nteenth precinct station, and Detective Sullivan ar. rested Ford at the oorner of avenue A and Ninth hambered revolver was found in b pocket. When Essex Market Court, he pleaded guilty and said that he spent the money in dissipation. He claimed to have lost $300 of tho money in ® [aro bank in Washington, kept by Charles Snow, and stated that a disreputable woman bad received the remainder, Justice Murray held bim for trial in default of $5,000 bail. A LOST CHILD. A BEREAVED FATHER'S STORY OF NOW HE CAME TO LOBE HIS DAUGHTER, ‘At the Central Office yesterday a haggard, weary looking man presented himself to inquire about a little girl of his who had been missing for five days and of whom he could not aiscover the slightest trace, Some- thing in his appearance tuduced Captain Copeland to question him about bis place of living and bis meansol making & hivelibood, and in reply to these inquiries the poor man told lis story—-a sorrowful one it was— of poverty, dispossession and the last great gri be: ich ho thought the rest but triflos. nis my name, sir,’ said he, ‘and until lately I have made a decent living and have been happy and contented with tho little! owned.

THE GREAT FORGERY. CONTINUATION OF MAXWELL'S EXAMINATION AT THE TOMBS POLICE COURT YESTERDAY. The examination of George L. Maxwell, the alleged accomplice in the $64,000 forgery, was continued at the Tombs Police Court yesterday. ‘To a great extent the evidence adduced was a repeti- tion of that given in the examination of Chadwick, but enough new testimony was brought out to show that Mr, L. A. Brown, the broker who originally brought Horace E, Brown and Chadwick into commu- nication, knows a tew fete that would light up the entire matter, WHAT THR MISSING NROWN KNOWS, ‘That worthy, according to the new evidence, waited one day upon Mr. William Muir, a stockbroker of Broadway, avd submitied the same neat little plan as that laid before H. E. Brown by Chadwick some time Previous, Mr, Muir listened to the wily tones of tho tempter, but prudentiy declined, The insinuating L. A. Brown said if be, Muir, would undertake the nego- tiations bis percentage would be an unsettied portion of twenty five per cent of the whole amount, Tho delicate business, worthy of so large @ commission, was simply to become a party passive to a gigantic fraud. A check for a largo amount would be only cer- tifled by a nameless institution, and after the pro- ceeds were obtained the check would be pronounced a forgery. Unsuccesstul in his desigus on Muir he leit and was not seen again until a few days ago. Tho examination yesterday opencd by the testimony of Mr. Banta, casbier of the New York Life Insurance Company. ‘ihe prisoner Maxwoll occupied a seat by bis counsel, Clarenco A. Seward and General Foster. Assistant District Attorney Herring, tor the prosecu- tion, edged close to Judge Dully’s chair and keenly watched the proceedings, occasionally prompting tho magistrate and frequently questioning the witnesses. Mr. W. H. Pockbum was also prosent looking out tor the interests of the Union Trust Company and enliven- tng the monotony of the examination by forensic Ults with Mr. Seward. A largo pumber of spectators and detectives occupied seats in the room aud attentively watched the developments. ‘Mr, Banta began by saying that such a check as tho ‘one presented-—viz , the $64,000 check—had never been issued by the New York Lile Lusurance Company; the witness, as cashier, knew all the busineas of the con. corn and was positive of what he said; he had com- pared the company’s stump punch with that on the “forged check and delected a sight diiference between thetwo. It veing here suggested that a comparison should bo made by the Court, Judge Duffy ordered a paper punched from (the company’s stamp to be Drought into court, On its receipt the Judge scanned ut Closely und pussed it around, ‘The universal verdict was that the punch was identical with that in the forged check. Morris Franklin, Proaident of the New York Lito Insurance Company, next testified. He pronounced the signature purporting to be bis a forgery. Witness never signed checks in blank. Mr. Bruckeuvogle, the German agent or clerk of the New York Life Insurance Company, deposed that he had known Maxwell tor some years; bad inet him fre- quently in the office of Ganeral John E. Foster, tho Wail strect lawyer, with whoin witness had legal basi- ness; on the 8d of January Maxwell camo into Foster's oflice while witness Was. present and exhibited a letter written on the Jetter papor of the Now York Life In surance Company and asked who was the casuier of the company; witness did not see the whule letter; caught @ glimpse of the signature; did not think it was Banta; noticed largo figures on the letier and thougut they were $60,000; Mr. Koster remarked to Maxwell that he hud better see Mr. Franklin, tho president of the company, 4 TRANSACTION THAT WAS “ALL REGULAR.” Mr. Wuuam Muir was next called. Witness did business as a broker; was acquainted with Lea. Brown; the latter cullod on him in the midile of De- cember and made a proposition for witness to get cashed & check which would be properly certified but which would bo pronounced a forgery alter the money was received; ho said the amountol the check would be from $50,000 to $100,000, and assured witness that it was all regular and no risk could ve entailed; witness replied, ‘Hut I would be urrested;”” brown answered, “Never four that; when the dénouement comes the institution will not care to go deep into the matter;’”? witness declined having anything to do with it, saying there were tou many holes iu the plan; next time witness met Brown was on last Friday, when be came jute office of witness, and in the course of conversa- tion said that the present forgery case was the saw that he had reference to in his interview in Decembe On cross-examination the witness explained that, understanding of Brown’s proposition was that it the institation on which the chock was drawn did not take the precaution to send it back for certification of the maker it was to be pronounced a forgery ab initio by the institution making it, ‘At the conclusion of witness’ testimony Counsellor Seward movod tor Maxwell’s discharge ou the ground Of there being no evidence to implicate him, but this was strongly opposed by the Assistant District Attorney. The motion was denied, aud the examination adjourned until this morning. LEMHEIM'S MANIA, THE IMPRISONED CASHIER I8 ACCUSED OY FURTHER FORGERIES. The young man, Nathan L, Lemhetm, late cashier of the First National Bank of Montrose, Pa, who now Jangutshes in the dreary cells of the Tombs on the churgo of ten thousand dollar promissory note, appears, from developments made yesterday, to have Indulgod somewhat extensively in bis penchant tor writing other person's names to promissory notes, When the first charge came tolight no littie sympathy was felt tor the uniortanate young man, who had talien from such a bigh social standing in his community, and many believed the childlike defence ‘that be merely wished to see if the check was good.” Kvory- body sald at loast it was his first offence, But, unfortunately for the young man, there ap- peared before Judge Datly, at the Tombs lice Court esterday, Mr. Azus Lathrop, a merchant of Montrose, Pa., who made affidavit to tho effect that the signature to acertain note due yesterday, indorsed by tho pris- oner, was atorgery. The note in question reads:— MontRosy, Pa, Oct, 12, 1876, Four, months after date I promise to pay t» tho order of William 1, Cooper $8,000 at the First Natioual tank of New York. Value received. A. LATHROP, Indorsed—William H. Cooper aud N, L. Lemheim, cashiers. The noto was discounted jn the regular way und the forgery only discovered yesterday, the day uf maturity. Mr. Lathrop further deposed that he had frequently given notes to the First National Bavk of Montrose, and believed that the handwriting of the body of the note was Lemheim’s, Tho signature was a good imi- tation of deponent’s. Tbo prisoner simply waived examination, aud was Tecommitted to the Tombs, the Judge Gxing bail on the new charge in the sum of $10,000, The forgery disposed of Mr, Daniel D. Searls, the First Natioual Bank of Montrose, made a formal application to Judge Dully that the prisonor, Nathan L, Lembeim, be detained to enable him (Searls) to procure a requisition from tho Governor of Pennsylvania for his revurn to that Stato. Searls made affidavit that on the 2d of October last Lembeim was cashier of his bank, and he, deponent, had examined the books of tho institution and found that po such note had been deposited by the bank. H also pronounced Coqger’s indorsement a forgery. application was granted as a matter of form. It 1 stated by those protessing to know that several other forgeries of the same character will come vo hut be- fore long. AN ARTIST'S FUNERAL, The funergl of the tate J.
