THE COURTS. President Johnson’s Proclamation as to the Tax on Cotton. _——_— A TEN-YEAR OLD MATRICIDE. Setting Up an Alibi in the Case of the Alleged Incendiaries ‘The case of George L, Kouns and others against Otia N. Cutter, which has been on trial for several days in the United States Circuit Court, before Judge ‘Wiillace, was given to the jury yesterday, and they being unable to agreo upon a verdict were discharged Jate in the afternuon. Mr. Kouns was the master of two steamboats on the Mississippi River, and brought cotton and other products from the insurrectionary States during the year 1865. Mr, Cutter was a pur- chasing agent of the United States. On June 6, 1806, the plaintiffs brought to New Orleans several hun- red bales of cotton and paid to the purchasing agent nearly $30,000, the government tax. About one- half of the tax was collected by Cutter on June 12, and the remainder on June 15 apd 20. On June 13, 1865, President Johnson issued a proclama- tion removing all obstruction upon trade and trans- portation of products within the ipsurrectionary Bates east of the Mississippi River, and it was held by the Supreme Court that the proclamation took avect upon the day upon which it was made: Tho entire amount of the cux was paid before this procla- mation was known in New Orleans, and the suit was brought to recover the amount. It was held by Judge Wallace that the plaintiifs could not recover any of the tax paid prior to June 13, 1865, but that of the 15th and 20th might be recovered if paid under protest. It was claimed on the part of the defencs that the only remedy was througa the Court of Claims, and that it was clearly not the ip- tention of President Johnson to remove ‘the restric- ns upon cotton coming from the west bank of the river until June 24, when a proclamation was Issued removing all trade restrictions in insurrec- question arising is whether cotten produced in the ion whether cotton juced in the tates on the west bank of the Mivsteni pi River prior to June 13, 1865, was relieved from the twenty- five per cent tax allowed in President Johnson's Ree of that date, but the real question at is trial was whether the tax had been paid volun- tarily or not. KILLING HIS STEPMOTHER. A ten-year-old youth, named Thomas Hallissy, of No. 201 Madison street, and his younger brother had ® quarrel on the 15th of November last about the pos- session of # necktie. Their stepmother, Bridget Halliesy, interferel, and, taking hold of Thomas, threatened to chastise him. He at once broke away from her, and seizing a carving knife from the table flung it at her. The point of the blade entered her left breast, and the wound prove! to be fatal. Before her death, which occurred on the 19th of November, she called the boy Thomas to her bedside and forgave him, and putting his hand into that of his father requested both to pray for he On ilearn- ing the cause of Mrs, y's death, bet fig eed arrested Thomas, who, on being arraigned in the Court of General Sessions yesterday, pleaded guilty, the tears streaming down his cheeks. “Your case, Thomas Hallissy,” suid Judge Gildersleeve, ‘is extrao} 1 am informed you are hardly ten years of age, : a the killing ot sm formed by your father that you are ordin:rily gentle and. obedient, but that you sre quick tem- .

In view of these mitigating circumstances I intend to be lenient. I send you to the City Prison for thirty days.” The youthful prisoner was then removed, THE ALLEGED INCENDIARIES. Promptly at half-past ten o'cloc’: yesterday morn- ing the trial of Abraham D. Freeman and Charles Bernstein, indicted for arson in the first degroe, which Has’ been going on since Wednesday last, was Tesumed in the Court of Oyer und Terminer before Judge Barrett. The case openetl yesterday for the defence, and the first witness called was the prisoner Freeman. Ex- ‘QWige Curtis examined him at considerable length. The prisoner emphatically denied that on the night of the 10th of November last he was either at Siegel's ‘ssloon or intho hotice No. 11 Ludlow street. He swore that on the night of the fire he was in his own house from six o’clock until midnight, when he went to bed. Ho further stated that his presence at his house the entire evening was due to the fact that it was the anniversary of his child’s birthday, and that there was a celebration at his house in com- memoration of the event. Assistant District At- torney Rollins subje:ted him toa severe croxs-ex- amination, but the prisoner continued to protest his entire innocence of the alleged crime. ‘The noxt witness was the prisoner Bernstein, who, in response to the direct examination by ex-Judge Curtis, testified that on the night of the fire he was at his father’s housc and remained there from seven o’clock until after eleven. Mr. Edwin M. Fox, of nnsel for the prisoners, then examined several wit- Bests in support of the alibi and also some dr; oods merchants for whom Bernstein had worked, who gave him an excellent character for honesty and integrity. ‘fhe case will probably be submitted to the) thie afternoon. As on the preceding days of the trial, the court room was densely thronged. ‘The interest in tho case seems to have increased rather thau abated. STEAMBOAT CAPTAINS SUSPENDED. A decision was made yesterday by tho Local Board of Steamboat Inspectors in tho matter of the colli- sion on December 21, 1878, between the steamer Mor- risania and the schooner Jennie M.

POOR COMPENSATIUN, Peter A. Moyer, as administrator of his son Freder- feck, sued John Mulholland, a contractor, in the Marine Court, to recover $2,000 damages for negli- gently causing his son's death. ‘The evidence dis- plosed that the defondant, undo «contract with the | city, made an oxcayation for a sewer on Forty-second Street, between Second and Third avenues, in the course of which » shaft was sunk to the depth of from twenty to forty feet. The plaintiff's son fell into this ¢xcavation and was drowned in the water which evllected at the bottom. Judge McAdam charged the jury that the defendant was not liable ‘uniess the jury found that the child met its death by means of negligence on the part of the defendant in tailing to throw the necessary og: Ppa! around tho excavation, and then only in case the jury found that the child and its guardians were free from fault. ‘The Fata for the plaintiff, assessing the damages at | SUMMARY OF LAW CASES.

SECOND TRIAL OF THE SUIT OF EX-TRUSTEE A GELSTON AGAINST THE CHURCH. Rev. T. DeWitt Talmage was an attentive listener at the second trial of the suit brought in the Brook- lyn City Court, before Justice Reynolds, by William J. Gelston, ex-treasurer of the Tabernacle, to recover $1,342, being the amount of his alleged loan to the Tabernacle. In the previous trial the jury disagreed. Half an hour was expended in empenelling a jury. The religious convictions of the jurors were classified | a8 follows:—Catholics, 3; Methodists, 3; Sweden- | borgians, 2; Baptist, no church, 1; Congregation- alist, 1; Universalist, 1. Asacounter claim the do- fendant sets ups pledge or subscription of $1,000, alleged to have been made by the plaintiff on Fob- ruary 17, 1878, The case was opened by Counsellor Thomas A. Pearsall, who, on behalf of the | plairitiff, said that the statement made at the Taber- nacle on the 17th of Feb: that the debt was $12,600, was untrue. The Rey. Dr. Taimago, counsel | said, knew it at the time, as he January previous, at a meeting of the trustees, stat it at $95,000, which was @ true statement.

The following is his memo- hod in the month of | red randiim of decision, from which it will be seen that the trial of the case is set down for next April:— The objection taken to the Commissioner of Jurors in this case cannot be sustained, No prutence of favor ot interest on his part is shown, and all retiec- tion on his character is disclaimed, because he is an active associate in ot the counsel of defendant wow i. eoovent any officer elected by the people trom ng, because he would thus objectionable by all tho voters in the SX ‘That the partner of the other counsel over had a vase for him cannot be an objection.

THE BAPTIST MINISTERS. OPEN DOORS FOR THF PRESS AND PUBLIC-- THE CONFERENCE NEVER MORE EFFICIENT THAN NOW--ARE ALL INFANTS SAVED IN peaTH? Last week the Rev. Mr. Muir, of Macdougal street church, gave notice to the Baptist Ministers’ Con- ; ference that he would offer a resolution yesterday to exclude the press trom their meetings. Having had a week to think and sleep over it he presented a dit- ferent resolution, which called for 3 committee of seven to report on the second Monday in March plan of greater efficiency for the Conterence, By his after explanations it appeared that there exists great dissatisfaction with the personnel and con- duct of the Conference and with the time of holding its sessions, He instanced Dr. Armitage, who would attend often were the meetings held in the afternoon. But other brethren present, and there were about one hun- dred, could not attend in the afternoon. Should ono hundred be incommoded to pleaso one? Then the words ‘New York and vicinity,” a8 indicating the seope of membership, had a very wide meaning, and Brother Muir would restrict the Conterence member. ship. Dr, Miller seconded the resolution, and e: reesed hig love for his brethren “when they ave well’ (laughter); but he has been thirty years member of the Confereuce, with only a slight in- terini, and he favored the appointment ot the com- mittee looking toward a return to the old Pastors’ Conference. did not believe in having printers, editors and insurance agents members of the body. Brother Adams also favored privacy, Dr, Miller ex- plained again that he did not mean to exclude the press—he is in favor of open doors forthem. His remarks had reference only to the membership of the Conference. ALL AT BEA. Dr. Parmly Shongit his brethren had drifted very far trom their original moorings. They are now ® ministers’ not # pastors’ conterence, The conmunit- tee should take iu the whole scope of the meeting. Dr. Hedden wanted to know what his Brother Muir meant by efficiency. He thought the brethren had been very etticient lately. (Laughter.) The confer- ence record last year was a grand one, aud Dr. Hed- den was opposed to sitting in such severe judgment on themselves. We have had some humiliations lately, said the Doctor, and if an angel had been in the chair these could not have been avoided. He there.ore_ moved to lay the resolution on the table. Lost. Dr. ly (ironically) hoped the committee would be appointed and would do what was suggested, “so that sume of us who are wornout preachers, editory, &c., and not pastors, may go over and join Dr. Fulton’s, or some other as- sociation of ministers that will take usin.” Brother Potter, the secretary, deprecated this perpeiaal agita- tion of pastors and private conferences. The Confer- ence was never so efficient as during the past three years of its history. He had a printed list of topics discussed last year and he challenged any conference of ministers in the land to exhibit a similar budget. He opposed shutting the doors against any one—the press or the public. Dr. Daniel answered the question, ‘‘Are all children saved?” in the affirmative, yesterday, in an essay taking the Scriptural view of the relution of infant salvation to universal salvation. He believes in it because God has given at least two, instances in the Bible—Jeremiah and John the Baptist—of infant regeneration or sanctification, and he believes in it especially because the Fenyeare represent Christ as the federal head of the sinloss as A: is of the sin- ful and sinning. BANKER'S RAZOR. Edward Banker, who has hitherto rejoiced in being the manager of the Bowery Garden and caterer to the musical taste of the East siders for some time back, figured at the bar of Essex Market Police Court yes- terday. He was accused by Joseph A. Burgass, whose wife has furnished the serio-comic vocalism for the Garden during a “briet, but highly successful en- gagement,”” f having in a fit of anger, occasioned by ir. Burgass’ demand for $5 arrears of hogs 8 due his spouse, drawn a razor and a revolver upon him last Sunday night. Burgass was not hurt, but his coat ‘was slit with the razor, and so Justice Kilbreth de- cided to hold Mr. Banker in $1,000 bail to answer. The Hotel Royal has been seized by the Sheriff under a judgment for $4,331 24, obtained by William M. Fliess & Co. The hotel has been run by the Hotel Royat Company, incorporated in 1875 with a capital of $50,000, which was invested in furniture and fixtures.

FOURTEEN HUNDRED MEN EMPLOYED ON THE METROPOLITAN EXTENSION REBEL AGAINST A REDUCTION OF THEIR WAGES. It was announced yesterday morning to the large force of workmen employed on the Metropolitan | road’s extension on Ninth and Eighth avenues, from Eighty-third to 120th street, that their wages would be cut down from $1 50 to $1 2 a day. The company's representatives, in announcing this reduction, explained that it was made because | the current rates now paid only from $1 to $1 25 per day d that for the latter figure they could obtain more laborers than they had any need for, They had id all the winter more than they had been obliged to, and had given employment to hundreds during the worst part of the winter season when they would otherwise have remained idle. ‘Under these circumstances, therefore, it was explained, the company felt them- selves justified in making this slight uction now. 11 over the city were ‘The announcement appeared to cause but little ex- | citement, and the workmen, who number several hundred, quietly continued work. About fourteen hundred laborers, however, struck, and announced their intention of sending a committee to Mr, Con- over, the contractor in charge of the work, to induce the company, if possible, to reconsider the step that had been taken. Although no violence was Pareat ened and the men acted with very reasonable niod- eration the precaution was taken to communicate with the police, and a considerable number of officers and detectives were sent out all along the line to see that peace and order were preserved. Mr, Conover says that he addressed the laborers, and that most of the men will be but too ylad to come back at $1 25 per day, as it was quite certain they would not eb- ain any higher rates anywhere else, He thought they had struck work more for the sake of showing their natural inborn hostility to any reduction of 8 whatsoever than from ‘any real hope that the rates would be restored this winter. Neither Mr. Conover nor any of the officers of the road antici- pated any trouble along the ‘day. PREPARED FOR FIRES. As in the event of fires occurring along the line of the “L’” railroads the lives of passengers might be endangered siiould the trains continue running, the officers of the Fire Department have reccived orders that under such circumstances they are to stop them. A red light or a red flag will be used us a signal on each.track, at a distance not less than 100 yards from the poinf of danger. When there isan interruption of travel a red signal is to be displayed at the rear of each train, The Third avenue company has issued instructions to its employés conformable to the above, and also to the effect that when a tire occurs close to the track the trainmasters must make imme- diate arrangements to run trains to and from the nearest stations. ROUND THE WORLD. New Yon, Feb. 9, 1879. To tHe Eprror or tux HERaup:-- In your columns of ‘yesterday I notice the fact mentioned that a postal card dated London, October 18, 1878, was sent on a journey round the world and will not reach its destination in less than 116 days. This is quite a coincidence, as it must have made its journey from Singapore in the company of a letter I sent round the world addressed to the Postmaster at Yokohama. The following are the postmarks:—New York, October 22, 1878; Brindisi, November 7, 1878; Singapore, December 8, 1878; arrived at Yokohama, December 23, 1878; left Yokohama, January 12, 1879; San Francisco, January 30, 1879; arrived at New York, February 6, ten A.
