\ | THIRTY-SIXTH YEAR THE REBELLION'S LEGACY, + WEDERAL TROOPS IN THE UNITED STATES MARSHAL'S OFFICE. — a Preparations for a ( Sherif’s Forces a Authorities K Determined ‘Time Hostilities are Suspe: No action was taken yesterday in the case of @ohn H. Pratt, the Texan, either on the part of Fudge MecCunn oF of the United States authorities, though preparations were made on both sides with o view to possibie contingencies, Marshal Barlow, before the departure of President Grant, obtained from him an autograph order for 1» detachment of She First Artillery for his protection frow arrest by Fudge McC the latter had the warrant and other necessary papers prepared and ready for sie- avure, and Sheriff O'Brien had his deputies in readi- ness either to arrest Barlow or produce Pratt, as they might be commanded. At an early hour the soldiers arrived at the build. Ing in Chambers street containing the United States Court rooms and the offices of the Federal officials, took up their quarters in the United States Grand Jary room, ready st « moment's waroing to Fescue the Marshal from the clutches of the Sheriff ‘Bud his posse, should they present themselves. Judge McCann took his seat on the bench in the Bpecial Term of the Superior Court at 12 o'clock, and soon afterward United States District Attorney Pierrepont entered. Then the two had a brief co ference in the Judge's private room. The interview resulted in an understanding that Pratt should be Produced on Monday, Judge MeCunn agreeing that 1n the mean time he would not grant a warrant for the arrest of Marshal Barlow, ‘Tue Judge, on being informed by the District At (orney that President Grant had given an autograph order for soldiers to protect Marshal Barlow, re- plied that the Marshal would be under the necessity Of keeping the First Artillery about his person dur- Ang his whole term of oMce; that soover or later he ‘would havo either Barlow or the prisoner Pratt, Judge McCunn has received an avalanche of let- ters approving his action, All this fuss is about the arrest of John H, Pratt, the leader of the rebel gang that, in October last, overpowed the United States forces and murdered a number of unoffending Unionists inthe rebel town of Jefferson, Texas, Marshal Barlow says that Pratt was arrested by him under a warrant from ‘United States Commissioner Osborn, who is, by law, B Judge in regard to the arrest and detention of United States prisoners. Judge McCunn, the Mor. Bhal asserts, has undertaken to discharge Pratt on a writ of Aabeas corpus, and the Marshal maintains Lhat the case i# not a question of conflict between eivil and military authority, because the prisoner is held by him under @ writ from a Court of the United Bates, Neither has the case, in the Marshal's opin fon, any connection with the Reconstruction acts, A is simply a question whether the State Courts can Jnterfere with the writs and proceedings of a United Blates Court, and this point the Marshal considers pettled by the judgment of the United States Su Prevae Court in 1358, In the case of Abeiman vaainst Booth, when it was decled that a State Court bad no such power of interference with a United States process. The Marshal says that this bas been long considered sound Democratic doctrine, od was upheld by Judge Taney and Caleb Cushing Ln fugitive slave cases, When the rale was applied to the holding of fugitive slaves by a United States Marshal, it was considered very good law that a State pbould not interfere with the Marshal's right of de- tention ; but now that it is applied to the present ase, the law is viewed in a different light, Marshal Borlow apnounces his delermination to resist by force any attempts to impede him in hin duty. He received » letter yesterday from the Pre sident opplanding his course, directing him to en- force the authority of the United States, and advis- him to use all necessary means to hold the pris: ner, He did not anticipate a collision, though Capt, Buaw and a sergeant were on call at his door, ‘and the soldiers were on hand at a moment's notice Af required. ‘The Marshal was tn bis shirt sleeves, An civilian dress, but beslde him lay hiv military cap and sword of army days, ready for use on emer- goncy. All through yesterday afternoon there was march. Jog and countermarching of the soldiers from room to room, and fixing and unflzing of bayonets, Now, to combine amusement with exercise, they were wrdered to stack arms in the corridor, and then they were allowed to break ranks long enough to Duy cakes ana fruit from the especially privileged nokator who has a stand in the building. It wouht ave been an act of grace If the Marshal had pro- ‘vided is protectors with something to cat instead Of allowing them to pay for provender out of their own pockets, But he was too busy in his aMlee. in their preparations "ks Vinible ‘There was much mysterious whisper 8 in the intervals of the mili- 6 or twice the Marshal walked ors ‘After 4 o'clock, the usual hour of quitting business fn the office, there was much spechiation ax to what ras to become of Barlow.

Since then business has iucreased a hundred-fold, ard the retailers have been gradually pushed out to mako way for wholesale dealers, who dispose of their sealy commodities by the ton. Frequent appeals were made to the City Fothers for increased sceommods tion, but the authorities refused to erect a suitable building, or confer any privileges on those who were willing to do the work. A year ago, however, the Pishmongers’ Association was Incorporated, and they obtained a lease of ten years with power to bald astrnciure suited to their wants. The new market is to bea plain wooden stracture, two stories in height, with a frontage of 193 teet on South street. extonding from Beekman toward Fulton street, and a depth of sixty fect. The interior to contain seventeen stalls, that being the number of members of the Association. The average sale of fish cach day in the market exceeds 150,000 pounds. Mr, Ber. nard Kelly is in charge of the work, the entire cost of which, $10,000, has been subscribed, and the market is to be completed in October. New Questions for Mr. Bergh, Before Justice Lynch of Brooklyn, yesterday, a new point was i Ion the law for the preven. ton of cruelty to animals. About four weeks ago a stable owned and used by Mr. Thomas Sommers, on Fulton avenne, Brooklyn, was burned, and two horses perished; @ third managed to kick his way out, The horse which thas escaped was badly burnt, the hide all about the hind quarters being literally burned from the flesh. In this state the animal was allowed to wander the streets, without ‘any sustenance, and tormented with flies which set d myriads on the putrid sores, Mr. Somm repudiated the ownership of the horas, aud the in aurance company pretended to know nothing of the nimal, although it was clearly age. The horse was uliimately shot by order of the Board of Health, A complaint wus made at the instance of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animuls, against Mr. Sommers, before Justice Lynch, which was heard yesterday, The defenc «tthe question of ownership os between Mr. Sominers and (he insur ance company, In consequence of whica the hearing was adjourned until U 10th of Se ber, The law provides that any one in possession of an ant malin such a state when abandoued is hable, wheth. er the owner or not, Reforming the Repo arty.
