It is also denied that the de- | coased owed borrowed money to McCarron, to which fact was attributed the ongin of the difficulty, As the hour arrived for the recommencement of the trial | yesterday the court room of the Gyer and Terminer, i whieh is usually crowded when a criminal trial takes | Place, was thronged by a curions crowd of interested spectators, Judge Brady took his seat promptly at | clovelt o'clock, and the prisoner was called to the bar | tnd took a seat beside tis counsel, Messrs A, Oakey | Hall and Wilam F.

A LONG AND BITTERLY FOUGHT CASE-—-THE FINANCIAL AND MATRIMONIAL MUCH MIXED. Tho privocy. of divorce trials in this city, through the reference system, while it undoubtedly serves as a wholesome check upon the morbid curiosity of the public, neverthejess results in this evil:—That mach injustice may be suffered by a wife or husband wrong- fully accused when it would only need the clear light of publicity to vindicate the innocent. The Dickie divorce vase seems to be one of this class. The parties are possessed of means and occupy # good position in life, A son who bas just arrived at manhood is the fruit of the union, Mr, Edward P. Dickie, the plain- uff, was for many years an importer ot glassware, in Warren street, being the head of the house of E. P, Dickio & Co, He 18 about forty-five, and now retired from business, His father, old Patrick Dickie 18 said to have amassed « fortune of nearly $1,000,000 in the drag business. Mrs. Mary E. Dickie iga woman of nearly forty and lives in this city with her mother, Her father, James Robinson, umassed a bandsome fortane in the East India and fruit trade, and died in 1871, He left tour children, and Mrs. Dickie’s shure of the patrimony amounted to about $50,000, The suit for divorce was brought by Mf. Dickie in December, 1872, in the Court of Common Pleas, aud has, therefore, beeu pending over four years. The case was referred to ex-Judge Bosworth ‘ag referce, and such slow progress has been made that iv-will probably take months yet beiore the hearing of the tesiimony, waich already Mile thousands of pages, can be conclided and betore the referee can make his long-looked-for report, The next sitting will be on the 24th of thi onth. SHOLVING A PARTNBRSULY, The first intimation whieh the friends of the parties received of the marital infelicities of the Dickies wos a suit—brought by Mr, Dickie some two months betoro | the proceeding lor a divorce was begun—uagaiust bis partner, Mr. A. D. Brinkerhof, to dissoive the partner- ship existing between them on the ground of Krinker- houl’s adultery with bis wife, The papers in this case were served Upon Brinkerhof, ybo was a well known society man, on October 1, 1572. Brin hot, although stoutly alleging his 1nnocence of the charge brought by bis partner, nevertheless declared that if Dickie was disinclined to remain any longer in business with him ‘he was willing to dissolve partnersmip according to their. articles of agreement The partnership was dissoived in a day or two, Dickle, 1t 16 stated, borrowed $5,000 from nis Wile in order to refund to Brinkerhot! the money the Jatter haa invested in the firm. Lf it18 trae that Mes, Dickie loaned nis money to her husband when she knew that the digsolution of the partnersuip was cansed by her husband’s belief in her criminal tutimacy with bis partner this must cer- tainly be regarded as 4 curious feature of thocase. Tho separation took place almost immediately atter, on Oc~ tober 4, 1872, and in December the suit tor divorce was instituted by Mr, Dickie. The complaint alleges adulterios with Mr, Brinker- hoff, committed 10 Orunge, Ulster, Putnam and West- y counties, and in New York und New Jersey, covering a period of fiiteen yea rom 1857 to The principal specitic aliegations of adultory, however, covered the summer months and various places in the country—Fisukill, Orange and othere— where the couple lad been spending their summers, The testimony elicited betoro the reteree to sustain | these allegations Was, in Kune respects, of an extraor- dinary character, Mr. Brinkerhoil has sworn to bis complete mnocence, He is a bachelor, of about forty- live, who is residing now at Fishkill. . ‘A BITTERLY FOUGHT CASE. It appears that Mr. Dickie, when he began proceed- ings for a divorce, had. possession of his wife's prop- erty. He relused to give It up, and a smit was brought against him tu the eurly part of 1876, which was tried before Justice Davis, sitting in Supreme Court, Special ‘term, Mr. Dickie’s detence was that Brinkerbol! had an Jusmoral influence over his wile, and that il he gavo up Ler property she and her alleged paramour would only squander it, Both Brinkerbofl and Mrs, Dickie emphatically denied the allogations on the witness stand, and a judgment was given in her favor, Being possessed of means she desired no alimony, and bas Teeeived none, but her counsel have stubbornly fought her case, and are determined to fgbt itto the bitter end, 10 order, as they say, to vindicate. the reputation of a deeply injured woman. Mr, Andrew Boardman, Mr. Dickie’s counsel, hus conducted the case for the plaintiff, and its final issue is looked forward to with great interest by a large circle of the {meods of both parties, MAXWELL AND THE CHECK, THE PRISONER HELD TEN THOUSAND DOL- LARS BAIL TO ANSWER, The finut examination of George L. Maxwell, the Wall street broker, suspected of complicity in the recent $64,000 forgery, took place at the Tombs Police Court yesterday before Judge Dufly. The Union Trust Company’s interests were, as heretofore, represented by Counsellor Peckham. Mr. Clarence Seward appeared for the prisoner. The tirst witness called was Mr. Lewellen P. Hurl- bert, who testified to having dived with Horace E, Brown on the Sunday preceding New Year, on which occasion Maxwell was present, Witness also testified to having gone with Horace KE. Brown to the Sub- ‘Treasury on tho 4th or 5th of Jauuary; there intro- duced bim to Mr. Middleton; Brown got a $10,000 gold certilicate changed. ‘The matier of dinner and that of Brown’s changing the certificate in the Sub-Ireasury were, it be re- membered, denied in testimony for the delence pre- viously given. Mr, Edward Ailen, a clerk in tue employ of Fisk & Hatch, next took the stand, and testitied that carly in January Brown sold, at the banking house of the firm mentioued, $5,000 in gold. ‘This corroborates Brown’s previous testimony, and tends to show that the ten thousand dollar gold cer- Ulicate was paid to Brown, notwithstanding Maxwell's evidence to the contrary. Tho next and last witness was Horace E. Brown, who was put on the stand for cross-examination. Io answer to the question, “Haye you seen Chadwick since his arrest?’ witness replied in the affirmative, but denied having said to him, ‘Let us both stick to one story, and by so doing we will get clear.”’ Wit- ness admitted having in 1875 made a proposi- tion to a Mn Garcia and others sunilar to the one made by him to Maxwell tor the ratsing of money for institutions by irregular methods, Brown admited further that he had once been arr on account of a forged bill of lading. Witness a; ‘went over the history of the $10 000 gold certificat 4 detailed the circumstances relative to bis depositing $3,400 for safe keeping with Mr. Flanagan, the Wall street broker. Witness also recited his previous testimony about having paid $1,650 of the money to Chadwick, The prosecution then rested, a to {ter delivering an exhaustive opinion, in which he alluded to tho pe ab ba of the charge, the eminence of counsel and the respectability of tne prisoner, held Maxwell to bail in the sum of $10,000, ‘The prisoner's brother, Mr. John D. Maxwell, promptly stepped up to the Ciork’s desk and became surety, Whereupon Maxwell again went out to liberty, LIFE INSURANCE TROUBLES.

Twenty Millions’ Worth of Revenue Stamp Paper to Count. How They Jook and How They Do Their Work. A female returning board, consisting of forty-four Treasury clerks, is now sitting here to see that there isa fair count, Although the inter of 40,000,000 people are not at stake in this count, yot the safety of some $20,000,000 or $25,000,000 worth of internal revenue stamp paper is involved in it. The advent of this returniug board hasnot created quite such a sensation as the recent appearance of Messrs, Wells, Anderson & Co. on the political arena, although ag between the two boards there is very little doubt ag to which Is invested with the greater personal charms. Imagine the delightful surprise of the young clerk of the Metropolitan Hotel who, as he was twirl- ing that dainty little mustache of his, saw this bevy of forty-four fair visitors trooping mto the hotel, They arrived at half-past seven o’clock yesteriay morning, and, having travelled all night, looked tired and worn, In spite of their fatigue, however, they had to begin their arduous work at half-past one o’clock in the atternoon, ‘ ‘ STAMP MANUFACTURE SUPERVISION. Every yoar the Treasury Department sends such a delegation of female clerks to count the internat reve- nue stamp paper which is printed by the three bank note companies of New York, and thus to verify the reports of the quantities of such paper mado by the government agents to the Treasury in Washington, ‘There has been no count for two years, however, and tho present enumeration acquires special importance from the fact that it is made at the end of the Grant administration, and is intended to assure the incoming Secretary of the Treasury of tho correctness of the accounts of the bank note companies, The paper which is used for printing these stamps 1a of a pecu- Nar fibre, of which thus far, as claimed by revenue officials, no successful imitation has be complished, There is an automatic register attached to the machine through which the pulp passes ‘during the final process of manufacture, and this machine registers every sheet, 80 that tho government agent stationed at the mill can render an exact account of the number of sheets manufactured. As most readers will be aware, the paper 18 of various tints—-violet, pink, green, &c.—green being more used than aay other, This report is sent to Washington and a simi- lar account of the number of sheets received here by the bank note companies is also forwarded, so that the Treasury Department can tell at once whgther the amounts of paper sent from the mill and of those re- ceived by the bank note companies correspond. The New York companies also turuish to the department daily reports of the nuimber of stamp sheets printed and sent tu the revenue offices throughout the country, and agin the course of this immense manufacture the inutilation of many sheets unavoidable, (he muti- lated paper is sent to the ‘Treasury, where it 18 de- stroyed, It will be geen, therclore, that the govern- ment exorcises a Tigorous supervision over the manu- fucture and printing of its revenue stamps; but to make assurance doubly sure, these annual counts by experienced clerks trom the Curreucy Division are mude, They are generally chosen from that division becuuse their dexterity and rapidity in counting cur- rency renders the execution of their present task easy, quick and precise, TRYING TO AVOID PUBLICITY, The party of temale clerks which arrived yesterday was in charge of Mr, Charles H. Brown, assistant chief of the Loan Division of the Secretary’s offico; Mr. Charles Neil, chiet of the Currency Division ot the Rogister’s office, and Mr. George N. West, un ¢x- perienced clerk in’ the Treasury Department, The writer paid @ visit to the fair delegation, who had been assigned some forty different rooms, but quite a num- ber of whom were assembled ia one of their private parlors. With a feminine modesty which 1s worthy Of all respect, they requested that they should ve spared publicity as far as possible, and one lady, wno had been wearily reclining on the sofa, begged that their names should not be published, +] shail not even say that Mrs, Smitu or Mrs, Jones are of the party. ”? ‘This produced a great outburst of laughter, as the lady on the sofa who bad made this request bappeved to bear ovo of these not unusual names, and sho heartily joined in the merriment, DIAKNCUANTING TREASURY “GIRLS.”? ‘The tair tors were found to be mostly respectable looking dle-aged women, who peared to be widows or married ladies, and nearly all were dressed with extreme plainness, These clerks receive ubout $000 a year, A great deal of flippant and not very re- Spect{ul wit has been expended upon these ‘Treasury girls,” much of which is unmerited and decidedly out ot place, These ‘Treasury girls’? are nearly always poor, respectable women, who have geen better days, many of them orphans and widows of Union soldiers who bravely fought for thelr country, and nearly all support a family of helpless dependents. Even the mieses Who have never been murried, but who aro nearly always well up in the twenties, generally sup- rt an aged mother or ap orphaned brothor, but they ear only a small proportion to the number of wives and widows. ‘True, you will occasionally tind some worthless woman who is quartered upon the ‘Treasury by an admiring Con- man, but there ure few of these cuses, Perbaps reatest popular illusion, However, is in the ordi- nary term ‘I'reasury girl.” The mind immediately calls the picture of a young, blooming, giggling and girlish matden before it, and highly imaginative Wash- ington correspondents havo lent themselves to confirm this popular notion by their rose-tinted accounts of female beauty and fascination in the Treasury. But the visitor at the Treasury will see ata glance how fan- ciiul and pmaginative these accounts are when ho be- holds these staid, sober, plain, middle-aged women, dressed in the quietest colors and without as much umption of coquetry oF girlishness as even the jemn temale telegraph operator or the business-like female reporter. They are nearly all women whoso very faces betray in an instant that they have known the cares and struggles of this life and look at the world from a serious point of view. Hence it is cor- tainly wrong to speak or write of these worthy women ina vein of levity or bant THK WORK THWY HAVE TO DO, Mr, Brown informed the writer that about 5,000,000 sheets of revenue stamp paper have to be counted, and he thought the task would occupy bis torty-iour wards a week or ten days. ‘Tho stamps are prineipally for tobacco, snuff and -pirits, and each sheet contains from five forty stamps. The sheets have to be counted twice, The women will work trom nine to four, and each 18 supposed to be able tv coant about 25,000 shectsaday. At the hotel, before they had begun theyr work, they were quite lively and chatty, “Is the Grand Duke Alexis here?” one asked, with natural curiosity; but as she was evidently married this Inquiry was undoubtedly free from any matrimo- nial design. Then, the convergation turning upon Mrs. Oliver's breach of promise suit against the youth. fur Senator Cameron, one of the women exclaimed, “That's all talse!” and gave it as her opinion that the charges were only trumped up to “bleed” the wealthy Senator. “We have been travelling all night; that’s the rea- son why we look so bright,’? still another remark ironicaily, while the others remained absorbed in their newspapers, ‘4 HOLIDAY EXCURSION.” Their work was begun yesterday afternoon at the gresi uh American Bank Note Company, and when the fomale clerks finished ther day’s task they had counted nearly 400,000 sheets. One of tho managers of the company said they ged 2,800 sheets ap hour cach, while the company’s expert counters averaged 20,000 an hour, The scene of coun: ing wus not a very lively one, The women sa tables in a room On one of the highest stor with = bundl of 1,000 sheets each belore them, and silently and rapidly para over the upper right hana corners with their middie finger, wuich they every now and then wet on a sponge lying bo- fore them, No word is spoken, and when one has finished a bundle and finds jt correct another goes over ft again.
