wa token op. -Sir. Batasd, of Delaware, subinlUod an amend-Kt peovidjag taa kil of tL Comvxtotatoners to Um loo airy sbcwld wt Win lavas ad" proaibi-pry leglalatioa or total abstinence. Mr. CoxKLifco favored tb adoption of th aasend-test, and aaid Ibo iaapinttoa of tha inquiry vu by emperanco turn.

It was this dnamtUoca that wv him tn reypsct bad for tha ewbjeet. Conld ay temperance mas doubt that if any value at all aa to be attached to tha report, that value would greoJJy enbjnced if ther should be one man at on tb commission wb weald hare Maa Stunga to ask acsti0a wfak-h would overlooked ty tha advocates of prohibitory legislation. Mr- of Main, also advocated the adop-lon of the amendment, lis favored legislation on Lit subject, which he believed one of the moat ha-ortant before tha people. There should ample opportunity for all aidi-a to be heard. It s-a proper to legbdot ao the eubtect.

aa the Gov-rromeut waa deeply lntere.ted In It by the col loci Ion if a lsrge amount nf tax anonally. Mr. of Wiai-unmn, did not think It proper have sntl-U-rone ranee men ou tho commiMiion to ajventlttste into tnriBc. Mr. Oockumi, of N'ew-York.

saidibstlf the Senate otd ilnwa the amendment and declared tinon it record tha: it meant to be wholly partial and have a me-aided inquiry, it would do mora to injur the jrmperanc cause than anything else it conld do. II r. CASMCXTtEa aaid he anderstnnd this to he a novo luukln to future legwbttioa in tbia body. Tho rrpoti of tho rflmmUi'Uiii would have greatur a-eiuht if all the members of it should not be of one iv thinking the nuestJon. Both sides should representctL and the report wowld thea "nave Mvo inn the influence it would have were all on the lame aide.

I'reding the discussion of Mr. Bayard's amend-went, the more in boor expired, aad the bill ent Mr. CI1ire aaid be nn notice a few days ago thst he wonld auk the indulgence of the Senate to rabmit some remarks on the Louisiana bill, intro-tneed by tim. olid if it was tho ptenaura of tlie Senile, be would now aak that all pending order be fold tsida, that be night oddreso th rVaat oa tlntt bill. Mr.

nuule un cflbrt to have the ObU'ii-. oil bill Liken ti, but tbe inoiion of Mr. Carpf nttt to lay ailo all pending orders and take Dp the Leu eiatui lHl waa rreet tu. I r. C'ABi'KxncUfftaid be proooaod to eo directly to buaiTMHiis ami nut wiwtt the time of the Henato in tuy slowing apeecb.

ife would repeat nothing tad aaid ou iorm-r Hrcanion. but would endeavor to tingle out matter In ooitnectinn with the Lnoutiana take apuai which huth hunaeif. and tbe Senatsr front Indiana (ill. torton aemed, and would endeavor to ibow that ail the rircnniaMmiearennired the patfwaee the bill by bin. li rcriewed tbo election returna, awl aaid it waa Clearly ahown that McEnery had received 9,969 majority, thooh be did not bold the election to have born a fair one.

Congreas bad already authorized investigation into Lotriaiaua ailitira, it aeomied to him. aa it bad fcone eo far in them matters, that it tnuat proceed and aettl them, lie referred to ho arsiunent of the Senator from Indiana Mr. Morton to tha Supreme Coart of the State bavins decided In favor of Kellogg, and said the testimony belbre tb benata Comniitte snowed ouch a Htate of fraud aa would aet article tbe deciaion of say tribanaL 'i he heuator (Mr. Morton), from tbe Committee on Privileges and Elections, in nis report in regard to tho Presidential olertor in IxNiisuina, had stated that tb Lynch board, in tnak Ir.z the count and declaring the election of elector, bail no legal evidence upon which it could connt tha votes. The Senator bad aiiowa that no Talhlity attached to the action of too Lynch board in the count tor Presidential.

electors, and both Houses of Con- press acted npon that report. Tbe Senator (Mr. Morton) now clnimed that tbe Supreme Court of the Stat had decided that the Lynch board was the legal board, bnt he (Mr. Carpenter) called attention the bust that that declniou waa niada before the report of tbe Senator from Indiana above rv erred He (Mr. Carpenter) rcsrettad that the Senator (Mr.

Morton) waa not in his seat today, and would pass front that branch of his ar- frntneu omitting many th intra which ho intended to 1 refer to. Uow would ConKresa look before tho country after deriding that the election waa void aa to tha Presidential electors, but legal as to the State officials Tha fceaator (Mr. Morton) having led tha Benata through tha brat phase, now seeks to lead it la a eoontor movement. The Supreme Court of Louisiana waa part of tb Htate rove rumen and when Congress was to lnqair whether the Government of that is tste was ttepablicaa or tbe titf C-m Court could no mora aettl it than the Legia. tor could.

That power waa vested exclusively in Congress. Again, the question waa not a juax-ial one at all, but a political one, and mnst be determined by the political depart meet of the Government. The Supreme Court of the United States i tec If could not settle it, and the decision of the Supremo Court of Louisiana was not entitled to a moment a consideration. Tha court bad never attempted to decide the question directly, but all it did say. in ef.

feet waa that tha Lynch board waa tbe legal board. It never aaid whether that board acted honestly or corruptly. Tha Senator from Indiana (Mr. Morton) bad rested his case upon two point, tb decision of the Slat Supreme Court, and tha recognition of the Kellogg Government by the President of the United States. Ou a former occasion he (Mr.

Carpenter) bad stated that a proper cas bad never been mad out for tha President a action in leaning his proc lama ton, and tha Senator from Indiana got on hia hufih horse to illustrate his fidelity to the a thing entirely unnecessary for hint to bob ater himself np in executive favor by denouncing somebody else for falling abort. Suppose ttea. Grant did misconstrue a statute, did iU make bint a worse man J'ot at all, and be (Mr. Carpenter) protested attains tb. Senator (Mr.

Morton! declaring that there had been an attack npon the President, when be (Mr. Carpenter) pointed out a minoonatructon of statute. Such Justice aa Mansfield, Story, aod Marshall would sit and listen for day to an argument to ahow them where t'oey wei-e ia error, while a uritioe of the Peace would knock yon down for suggesting that be may have erred. Ho (Mr. Carpenter) denied that he bad mad any attack on tbe President.

Kcferring to tbe argument of the Senator trout Kew-Jei-aev, (Mr. iYslinghuysen.) as to tbe power of tho President to act ia putting down the insurrection when be bad satis0ed himself that it existed, Mr. Carpentea aaid there waa but oue maa aa tha United States, except Senator Freliag-buvaen, who entertained such an opinion, and that waa Andrew Johnson. maintained that he waa tb United States, and that he had tb power to Interpret the Constitution. Mr.

Fkfxinghuyhks aaid tb Senator' (Mr. Car-penter's) information waa very Untiled, not to know that tbe President had such power. Mr. CAicrtiTiK said one of the greatest pleasures of bis life was to add to his store of information, and be would listen as a faithful disciple at the feet of iiia master warn tae gentleman iron Acw-jersey would undertake to show him that, under the Constitution, the President, of his own volition, and without a proper record from the State, could determine that aa insurrection existed in tbe State and proceed to put it down. A court of Justice could not decide raae between tbe Senator and himself ef without a record.

Why. Be. cause it was a coart of record and had a seal, and certainly th United States was a conrt of record. The mere rry, by telecraph to tbe President, com and help us," waa not vutneient for his interference. Jin (Mr.

Carpenter) believed that if the Poderal trunpe were withdrawn from Louisiana Keiloga'a ioveruuu-nt would not stand. There weTe two ques- tions tuvolvad aa to the passafm of this bill First, have tbe power to pass it i Second, tbe expediency of passing it. Tbe Constitution provides that rat State shall have a republican form of govern, nient. and one of the tirat reo.uin.itea of a republican form of -government is that its cilices shall be tilled by persons elected by the people. Th power of Congress waa derived from theConatitn-liou.

not from tb tumult in Louisiana, or th fraud of lumll. or tbe Lynch board, aod he salted everv Senator within his bearing if Cot-err a bad iint the nower to "rive tbe people of that State what they bad been cheated out of, namely, tho right to elect their own omcers. Should oar Government oi ea -thrown it would be by thes steady encroach ments. Congress boouiq so as au times tnat esca state had a republican form of government, and an Senator declaring that Congress bad not the power to interfere now would aeciar to Jxcllogg and bis followers, von ran repeat mis tutni: in lritL and isc-fl, and ia lees i Con-tress baa no power to set it right. It Cu)rresa had bo authority to lntfxfcrc.

tiu-a Mci'uerv Government could set itself np ab-o by torx-e. Violence was aa good a title aa fraud, and a little more manly. When a man skulks beneath th auilnd robr of a Federal adg. be has not the man' bneaa of the vno who goes out with sword in band maintain bis position. There was ao question ia hia mind ss to the power of Congress to tako np th Censtitutioa any Stat and decbtr whether- not it wa republican in lorta.

Mr. CAnrwmu said, s-sppoon tho people of Con.

It could lax tb last dollar from tbe pockets of tho people, er establish female aufirana.

and put tli women in th army. The great argument made- in tho press psrticularlv was tbe inexpediency of ordering a new election on Ibe ground that it wonld be a dangerous preeeibrnt. but tltat waa not sound logic. aiomel was lantMsoi medicine, and as well might it be said tbrit lieesuse dnetors gave it to tfiowu men they might rive it to infstrts. Look at tho probable ef fect Congress sa vine it could do nothing in toe present condition ef the Southern States.

Sack action, ia th present condition of some the South ern Ststc. would le tbe most dangerous thing that eon In be done.

The Senator from Inoiana (Mr. Auer-ton) hod said, pas this bill and there venul blomlMoed in Lonlidana. Ha said tho Ke-pnbUcims were all in favor of Kellogg, and the respectable Ilevracrats were all in favor of hhnv If tbrv are. who is to rsuac bloodshed Ho could be elected fairly, and Congress smuafn him in bia high office. The speech of th Senator (Mr.

Morton) almnt Woodshed exceeded anything be (Mr. Carpenter) bad beard sine be left the nurwery. It reminded him of tbe old song, "Fa fn fo fnm, I smell the blood of an "Wood! blond Wood blood be said, four times. Did the Senator expect to influ-euce th Senate by any such argument There would be no blood shed by a new election. The Government conld enforce it by the army and navy if neveaaary.

If not. this nation bad better furl its banner, and put its affair In the hands of a receiver. Mr. CABPimTtR then read from a sueecb made by Mr. Keilogg in the Senate in in which he said that all that tho people of the State wanted was a fair election, and whenever onythimt else was oiHce under the iruiaa of boinu Kepab-lican, should be put out.

Tbe )eople wanted a fair election, even If it bo by 1'ctlertl interfrrence. In conchuliDg bis argnment, ilr. Carpenter said that CeugrefM was in a position where it could not stop. LouuMijtt iuati nut mw Sonator here, and vs Conuti-tattoo aa va tha mmt Uave two. The Stator from w-Jeraey (Mr.

Frelinghnyaen) had said he wonld not vote to sat riiMhback. and by that he acclared there was no republican government in Louisiana. By seating Piuchback the Senate wonld bsve recoeuised Kellogg. By seating McMillan it wonld have recognized lie-Kiiery, but by rtfafcing to sent either it declared that there bad been no election there. Was it wise to adjourn thi troublesome question into the troubles of tbe Presidential election fit wss not prot-alds thst there would be tbe sume unanimity then that tbero was tb laKt time for.

as he scanucd the political horizon, be thought bo could see more than one candidate, and it wss not improbable that the vote of Louisiana might change tbe whole thina. The question should be settled now and put ont of tbe way, as it was neither wiso nor prudent to adjourn it-He had no personal feeling in tbe matter.his relatione with Mr. Kellogg having beea of tho most friendly clisracter. but be wanton the Congress of tbe United States to do its duty and order an honest election, so that tbe people could have their choice. TtlX CESTESSIAL BILL.

Mr. FBELnionuTAKV said be desired to speak on tbe subject, hut to Mr. Cameron, who moved that the Senate proceed with the consideration of tho Centennial bill, which was agreed to aftr brief discussion, tho ponding motion being to refer it to tbe Committee on Appropriations. Mr. Tiit'BUAa sooke against referring tbe MIL and aaid if it went to that committee the understanding would bo that there, should be an approprbition for the celebration, and this he opposed on the ground that Congress bad no power uuder ttin Constitution to vote money for each purpose.

Now that poor clerks were being turned out of tbe departments to save a lev thousand dollars and be saw them regularly, men and women, with tears in their eyes, oo( knowing where tbey were to get their next meal it was no time for Congress to entbork in an enternriso like tbia, which would afford a little show to Philadelphia. Mr. FBKLntoRrmx moved to amend tb motion to reiar so aa to instruct the eommitteo to report a bill making an appropriation of a suilicicnt amount of money, not to exceed 1.000.000, to defray the expenses of tho American Centennial Exhibition at Sabcf.st moved that the Senate adjourn. Mr. Camkkos said that to-moiTow be would ask the Seoata to remain in session and finish tho Centennial bill.

JlrKts, of Mississippi, from the Committee on Territories, reported the bill concerning the exe cution of the laws iu UUhi Mr. Butlkr, of Massachusetts, remarked that tb bill Involved judicial questions, and should be considered kv tbe Judiciary Committee He moved its reference to that committee. Mr. McKkk withdrew th bill, giving notice that be would report it again, which ha did in a abort time, in a point or order it was rcierred to th Committee of the Whole. THE INDIAN ArTROrWATlOXS.

Mr. LOUOBIDGE, of Iowa, from tb Appropriation Committee reported tbo annuel Indian Appropriation bill, which was referred to the Committee of the "Whole, and made the special order after th special legislative appropriation bill is is posed ot. BJUiULATIO OF COMMERCE BKTWKKX TUB BTATES. The House then resumed tb consideration of the bill to regulate conimerca by railroad between the several States. Mr.

Abthi'k. of Kentucky, concluded 'tb argument begun by him yesterday azaiust the constitutionality of tho meit mire, Mr. Hl'Ruirr, of Illinois, supporte tbe bill, and characterized tb argument of Mr. Arthur, of Kentucky, as an exhibition of tho wretched old heresy of extravagant State sovereignty. He held that there wss no ilanger so creat to tbe iu.

dun trial interests of the country no danger so great to tbe political morality of the country aa tbe uncontrolled doaiiuion ot gigantic railroad corporations. Fivcjhen. if they chose to unite, aa they generally did, con Id take off one-third or one-half of all the productive ludiudry of his own State. He did not cbooee to confess that this Government waa an absolute failure, and tlit it could not grapple wlthandcnntnd const Iratkmsily. romtahly.and fairly all things that teuued to tberoniioon welfare, within tbe powers jciveu to Congress by the Coustitntiun.

Unless Congress assumed the power to control inter-State ccuimerre. there existed no power uuder heaven that could control it. If as has been admitted by Mr. Arthur, these State conld pot impose restrictions on commerce by exorbitant charges, certainly tbe railroads, the creatures of the State, could not oo so, and the absolute jnrwxiW ttoo over the question was vested by the Coiinitutioa in Congress. If Congress could not control these overgrown, gigantic eorperartotia, then the Govern men was a I allure.

THE TRIAL OF A TUZL JVRT OBTJIXED. OPEKTJtO OF THE CASE DISTRICT ATTOaV" KET PHELPS THE ETTDEJfCE FOB THE pKosEcunojr. 1 Tbo trial of Jamea King for tbo murder of Anthony F. O'Xffl waa resumed In tbo Court of Oyer and Terminer yesterday, before Judg Brady. Tb Jury list waa completed by 13 o'clock, and tbo trial was then regularly proceeded with.

District Attorney Pnelpa, In opening th ess for tb prosecution, spoke of its treat Importanc to tha amunity and tbo prisoner, and asked at tnetr hand a thoughtful, unbiased Judgment upon tho facta which would be elicited. The prisoner waa a man of about tnlrty-flvo years of ago, bora ia tlto neighboring Stato of JTew-Joraey, of good attainments, of good natural abilities, who had shown himself possessed of largo buaineso capacity, having paaaed portion of bis ttmo ia California, in tho Sandwich Islands, ia this City, and la England, con ducting business transactiona with varied success. at times rising to a position ef considcrabl weal in, and again by tbo misfortune of hia career being reduced to comparative poverty. After being engaged for some time in California, he went to tbo Sandwich Inlands, wbrre bo formed tho acquaint- ico ot tbo lady, who subsequently beeamo hi wife; afterward returning to baa Francisco, and doing business tbero for a abort period, bo went to England and engaged la an enterprise which proved diaaatrona to bia financial aspiration. He then came to this country and took up bia residence at the village of Turner' Station, on the Erie Railway, with bia wife and three children.

There he formed tbo acquaintance of Anthony T. O'Xett, tbe deceased, and that acquaintance quickly ripened into friendship, which extended to their respective families. During tho Summer of 1872, domestic difficulties arose ia the family of tho prisoner, which resulted fat bia wife leaving her husband's horn and coming to this City with her children, where, for a time, aho resided iu th family of a clergyman. In that removal Mrs. King waa assisted by Mrs.

0'U, the wife of the deceased, and so indignant did tha prisoner become in consequence that ho charged that improper Intimacy existed tetwecu herself and O'XciL Tbe former friendship of course departed, aod nothing bat hostility sow existed between tbo partis. O'Xeil assigned a a reason for the do-parturs of Mrs. Kins frbtu her borne, the gross 01-trealment to which she was constantly subjected, and on a subsoqueot occasion, when be claimed possession of bis wife's trunks iu w-Jerscv, through tbe instrumentality of Neil bo was arrested and taken before a local Magistrate. On tbat charge bo waa released, and be immediately preferred a charge against O'Xeil for a subornation of perjury. On examination.

O'Xeil waa acquitted, and tbe feelings of hostility between them waa so great afterward that O'Xeil assisted In the prosecuticn of a suit against King fur the sale of bis household effects to satisfy tbo demands of a creditor. Xbo prisoner thea commenced a suit ia. Orango County against O'Ncil for crituinal intimacy with bis wife, and on tbat auit O'Xeil waa airtsted, ami released oa 1 10,000 bail. Meantime Mrs. King sought sepaia-tion from ber husband in a limited divorce, and tbe priaoutr replied by instituting prooeediaa for an absolute divorce, on tbe ground of infidelity with, the dececsed.

She Immediately commenced a similar proceeding, based on the same allegation, and at this time the feelings of King toward O'Xeil were ao bitter and deep tbat be threatened be nad better not cross bit path, and be asertod that w'uon a difficulty like that areee between himself and bia father-in-law in turn Sandwich Islands bo bail rew.rt to pintols. Threats i this character be constantly made, but when they were communicated la U'5eiL who was bom, brave man, and had served many vtars in Oie army, be treated them uith contempt, asserting that Kng bad not courage enough to attempt it. Ou the divorce suit a rcierenco was ordered by udge IJarrett. to take plsco before adce Sutherland at bis ofece in Pine street, and after two in- three hearings it wss to be continued on tbe 18th ot l-7i This waa on a Monday, and two days previously King boasted that be cahied a seven-shooter and thatbkod wonld be sbed. On the dav of tho shooting.

Mrs. King. Mrs. O'Xeil, O'Xeil, snd a Mrs. FoulXe and her sister, accompanied bv their lawyer, were at Judgo Sutherland a ofhee, aid th prisoner also wss in attendance, but not accompanied by counsel.

Mrs. Foulke, Mrs. King, and O'Xeil were, examined, the latter speaking in a manly, ont-spoxen manner of the iil-treilulD tu which the prisuter subjected bis wife. The lnttcr oid not the wit-nesses, and an adjournment was then ordemd. Mis.

Kin, O'Xeib and tho others leaving the room alter bidding the llelereo a good day. King also bowed bis salutation to the Judte, and left a minute after his wife Scarcely had the door closed on him when King advanced toward tbe stair which O'Xeil waa descending, preceded by bis buly friends, and fired three shots in rapid succession. The first ball passed through the hat of the deceased without doing him anv injnrv, the around missed him and lodged ou'the staircase. O'Xeil was thoroughly arocaeu lo a sense of his danger, and turned witn the exclr.mr-tion, "Is that what you are at 1" at the same time placing his baud on bis thigh to draw a revolver and place himself on terms of equality with his aisailant. Itefore he could place himself iu a position to return the shots the third bullet sped ou its mission and lodged in the breast of the deceased.

He fell Into tho arm of his wit who waa exposed with him to the same danger; and King meanwhile returuiii into the oflice or Judge Sutherland and banded li'ni the pistol, which still smoked after its recent discharge. O'Xeil va.1 taken into an adjoining ofUce, and before he could receive tho last othco or bis church from tbe minister who chanced tu be in tba building, and without exchanging a word with bis relatives, he expired. An officer was sent for to secure th arrest of the prisoner, and the crowd of angry citizens who had collected in tho place, caused lum such apprehensions of danger that he locked himself in udge Sutherland's private office. On the arrival of tbe officer. King was taken into custody, and begged tbe otlirer to protect htm from the violeuco ot the multitude.

Throughout tho affair bis conduct was distinguished by great coolness, and bis first remark on being lodged in the station-house was to send for hi counsel. If these tacts were pi veil, in the annals of murders which discraccd this City this waa entitled to rank tiret. Tbe plea of insanity wonld be sought to bo established, but while be admitted that the insan were irre-ponsiblu, they should closely discriminate between insanity and that aemi-nnconscionsneas the result of embroiled passion. Whenever a plea of insanity was falsely put as an excuse for crime and prevailed in tbe sympathy or Judgment of the jury, a gray and crjbg ovJ va wronabt, not only to the administration of justice, bat the safety of those who may rvolly bo insane wes imperiled. Tbey were told tbat murder in this City was too often permitted to go nuwhipped of justice, but he did not believe tbat in a'l tbe world a more upright Jury could be obtained than in this City, anu as long as tbat prevailed there waa no danger to the Constitution and tVe maintenance of the laws.

He asked in conclusion an impartial consideration of the case at the hands of thejurv. Joeiah Sutherland, City Judge, teetlilcd tho Fall of I8n a proceeding took place before me, aa Referee, the parties being tha prisoner, James King and Anna, bis wife. There had beoa several meetings in the case, and tbe last took place on the lHth of November. Three witnesses testified, Mr. O'Xeil, Mrs.

O'Xeil. and another lady whose name be did not reiucniber. The prisoner was present and did not cross-examine any of the partica. About a half an hour before the bearing occurred, the prisoner waa in my otace, and left, returning in time for the examination. After the examination, O'Xeil left with the ladies, aud King himself immediately afterward.

The motion, as well aa tbe claim made in the complaint for damages, was baaed on tbe fact that Mr. Iaaaca bad copyrighted tb title to a play called and tbat Mr. Daly waa infringing that copyright by exhibiting another play with a siniEar title.

THE HEROES OF TnE REPUBLIC7 IN CHANCERY.

Ia the equity branch of the Superior Court, before Judge "William K. Curtis, yesterday, was brought to trial tbe cose of Jobn Towusend against Peter V. listed end J. TV. ItymerL It appeared by tbe testimony that, iu 14 and 1363, tbe artisc, Mr.

H. Balling, painted an historical picture, entitled The Heroes cf the Bepubiic." After completion. Mr. Balling sold tbe picture to Mr. Bymert, one of tho defendants, for a consideration of (5,000, with the privilege reserved to the" artist to exhibit it.

Subsequently to such rale Mr. Balling entered Into a written agreement with Benonl Howard, recently convicted of counterfeiting in tbe United States Court, to paint seventy-five pictures of eniicect American statesmen and Generals, Howard agreeing to bear the expense cf materlala, studio, rent; and to make certain advances to Mr. Balling daring the progress of tho work, and both parties to tbe agreement to share in tha proceeds of sale, exhibition, ic. This agreement, by its terms, purported to cover a previous' verbal agreement existing between tbe same parties, and also conbUned a further provision tbat lor a year thereafter, Howard should have the privilege of exhibiting "The Heroea ol the Republic," In tb? proceeds of which tho parties to tho agreoxueut were Uo to sharo. Uuder this agreement the plcturo waa sent to "Washington for exhibition, and after remaining there in tbo Department of Agricultuie for some time Mr.

Ho thereupon instituted tbe ia tbe equity or chancery branch of the court, making both claimants defendants therein, for tb purpose of having the court do-termino tbe right to the picture aa between the rival claimants. Cut tho part of Hosted, one of tbe claimants, it is asserted that the picture in dispute was embraced iu the written agreement between Mr. Balling and Howard, and that tbe hitter having furnished the canvass, Ac necessary fur its painting, had a legal title thereto which be hid trans-feired to Hosted.

Ou the part of Mr. Balling it is claimed tbat tbia picture was not embraced in bia agreement with Howard, except as therein stated, lor purposes of exhibition and the sale of chramo copies thereof: that Howard never accounted to hint for any portion of the profits derived trom the exhibition of the picture or the aalo of the ctutmi copies thereof, and that the title thereto, which he (Balling) bad made sw to Mr. By men, waa a just and eijuiuble tne.

Kamerotu complaint shave reached Tire Ttxes calling attention to the tensive exhalation and stench arising front th fas-bouse at th foot of Fourteenth and Twentieth street; East IUver, tha former belonging to tho Manhattan and tha latter to the Nsw-Vork Cosnpany.TbcNew-Tock Gas Company wa Indicted by the Grand fury la tb year 1S73 for creating a nuisance injurious to the public health, and a Jury in the General Sessions convicted tbetn. They, however, appealed, and the Supreme Court reversed tbe verdict, ft having been shown that th company manufactured gas according to tbe moot approved methods, aad that everything was done to make tb business unobjectaonable. Teaterday a Times reporter was detailed to investigate tho cause of- the eomplalnta agalast tbo gas-houses, but more especially against tho New-York Gas Company. Ho visited tbe vicinity of tho gss works from Fourteenth to Twentieth streets, and from Third avenue to Avenu and made inquirb relative to the nuisance complained of. It is only fair to state tbat the resident in th Immediate totality ef tbe gas-houses, and Policemen with wbora the reporter conversed, said they had no reason to rem plain of any smells arising from th gas-boasev and that tbey had heard no com plaints respecting them.

They said, however, that the stench arising trom th New-York Ammonia Works, at Twentieth street and Avenn waa in tolerable, and they expressed surpris tha? th Board of Health should have permitted such offensive works to exist la a densely populated district. reporter, failing to get any evidence against the goa companies, walked toward the Ammonia Works, which are quite close to the "worti of the Xetr-York Gaa Company, acd certainly tbe meH which was found to exist In tho vicinity of tbeao works waa anything fiat aareeelila. Tbe reporter convened wtta. oao of th Vorkuta, who happened tn bo entering tbe vard, and this man aaid, The smell la very bad, iiiaced." This is tb reporter's opinion too, and a patrolman with wbora be spoke corroborated all tbe complaints which tbe reporter beard from other sonrceo, Tbe aciid the patrolman, '-arising from the works corrodes everything within it reach, and no letters can stand for any time on a sign -board in the Immediate vicinity of tbe works." One ot the residents in that locality aaid that the vapor even caused the worka of his watch to rust, and that be could not wear a watch inconsequence. Tbe smell wss so offensive thst the reporter was glad to get away from that neighborhood, and be next paid a visit to tb Health Dcpuriniest to get some information on tbo subject.

Dr. Day, tbe Chief Superintendent of the Sanitary Bureau, said that hut Summer tbe department wss inundated with letter complaining of offensive smells from the New-Tot Gas Works. Tbe matter was investigated very carefully, and tbe inquiry resulted in tracing tbe cause not to the gas, but to tbe Ammonia Works. Tbey were found be conducted in aucb a manner that it becanio absolutely necessary during the Fall of last year to issue an order to discontinue operations at tbewerks. The Board of Health heard no further complaints cf the eaa nuisance until after tbe reopening of tbe Ammonia Worka.

which took place some months ago. a permit having been granted bv the Board ef Health to carry on the works with improved machinery, which the officers of the board dulv inspected, and being satisfied that, with tbe new plant and other improvements suggested by the Board of Health, no nnihance could exist. Tbe permit waa granted. In a few weeks thereafter coaiplainta respecting the gas-houses came imnring In statin, and after another investigation it waa found that the refuse matter from the Ammonia Works wa allowed to enter the public sewers, and thereby cansed tb nnUanc complained of. Tbe Ammonia Company had then in course of construction a sewer leading directly from their own worka to tbe East River, and it was completed iu a day or two after the second inspection of the Sanitary ofbeers, and tbe refuse matter 'now passes thtuugh it into the river.

Tbe complaints again ceased after the construction of the sewer, but recently tbey have again revived, and tb Health tfficers are dointe everything iu their power to ccrae at tbe root of tbe evil. Prof. Chandler visited the works cf the New-York Gaa Company on Tuesday list, and Drs. Day snd Jane have also been engaged during tbe past week in investi-riiting this matter. Tbey are slow to believe that the trouble on this occasion lies with the Atnmouia Works, as from a thorough Inspection ot them they can tliscover no very offensive smells or anything injurious to health.

The New-York Gaa Company having been wrongfully accused en previous occasious, tbey will not without good reason lay tlio blame at their door, but tbey are pursuing their investigations from dav, to day and hoe soon to conio at tbe eante cf the naisance. "There is Dotting." said the doctor), more difficult to truce than a smell bat of one thing jsou can assure tbe public tbat we will not let tbe matter rest until we trace the cause of complaint to its Tbe rvperter subsequently saw the President of tbe Ncw-ork Gss Company, and be said that the caune of tho tronblu could not, be believed, be brongbt bow to heir works, lie was unite willing, he said, to co-operate in any way with the Board of Health, and no oue was utiie anxious than be to abate tbe uuiaance.
