The waves were rolling high in the prevailing east winds, aud the schooner seemed to be laboring very heavily, The HuxaLp yp cht ran dowa to ber and found that tie heavy seas were roiling over her, When within hailing distance tho yacht's crew saw that there was no one on board. They called, bat received no response. Approashing as close as was safe for the yacht they discovered that the schooner had been abandoned. Messre. Bullivan and MacDonald, the eegineer and stoward @f the HxzaLo yacht, at some risk of their lives lowered a boat and putoff tor the schooner.

Tue Bray yacht then sturted to tow her off; but, under the circamstances, the strain was too great and the Vine parted. Leaving MacDonald still on board the Schooner Sullivan returned to the yacht and got an- ether inne, which was attached, aud with which, as the tide rose and the vessel lifted, they were able to tow ber off. They bad brought ber some distance up tho Bay when this line also parted, and the Siak scomed fikely to drift onthe West Bank. This baivser be- fame entangled in the screw of the yucht, and with freat peril to himgelf Mr. MacDonald went into the water aud set matters right Tt was pow alter nive o’ciock, amd the Hinanp yacht crew had been ork ep the schoouer some three or four bours and bad succoeded in getiiug her up foward the West Bank.

They could show no proot of wis tact, however, and when they demanded possession the yacht mon reiused to surrender. Four of them attempted to get on board, but Sullivan and MacDouaid refused toallow them.

ABGUMANT ON MOTION TO VsCATY THE ORDER OF ABBEST AGAINST J. JALVIS JONES AND WILLIAM C. LOGERS, From time to time, for many years to ¢ome, there will probably crop out in the courts proceedings con- nected with the memorable giguatic ring robberies under the Tweed régime. The latest suit growing out of these frauds is the one brought in the name of the people, under the act of 1875, known as the *‘Adjust- ment Act,’ against J. Jarvis Jones and William C, Rogers, as surviving partners of the firm of Willam C. Rogers & Co, and E, Jones & Co., the well known “ring” stationors, to recover $942,989 07, alleged to have baon paid to them upon fraudalent Dills for stationery furnished to the city aud county. As 1s well known, upon 4 complaint setting forth their alleged frauds’ and accompanying affidavits, Judge Potter a few days since granted ap order of arrest against the accused partics, fixing the bail of each at $250,000, ‘This amount of bail they were unabie to = furnish, and as &@ consequence following their arrest were iodged io Ludlow Street Jail, whore they still remain, Of course tbe proper thing to do, or rather to attempt to do, wasto get the oraer of arrest vacated and thus restore to liberty the languishing captives. Applica- tion to this efluct was promptly mude by Mr. Oliver W.
