and asked him if tie had anything to say why the sentence of the Court should not, be pronounced' against hira. Cahill's counsel objected to the pass-ng 61 the sentence until the case had been carried to the General Terra of the Superior His Honor said that it would make no difference, ay the prisoner would be just as well off in prison at in jail, and accordingly he proceeded to-sentence him, as follows- You have been convicted upon the mnst reliable testimony of the crime of burglary, in the first degree: The offence consisted in forcibly entering, with intent to rot, the dwelline-house of a citizen at midnight, ti which and his family were asleep, and supposed protected by the law in the peaceable and secure enjoyment of the rights of life and property. The law allows the Court to impose a dreadful sentence upon you, aad if the st justified it, the Court would deem it a duty to order vou to be confined in a State prison for the term of twer.ty years. Such would be the sentence which would be given to a profe sional burglar lv ho invades the sanctity of our homes arid puts the lives and property ot citizens at peril. The Court has erven an anxious, consideration to your case, with the wish tomakassuch a dispositi oi it that, not oniy may theends and purposes justice be subserved, but uV doing so it may.

be seen that the law is not revengeful, but expects- its servants to administer it with all reasonable tenderness and clemency. You were a young lad of only fifteen years of age when your offense was perpetrated. You had always been surrounded with influences for evil, and not fori good. Probably you neytx had a kind, helping hand stretched out to keep you upwards in life, or an inducement extended to you to walk iiyoie rugged paths of virtue. It is said -you were an ex erienced and hardened young man, yet uoon due inquiry the Court cannot learn, that any! fact exists beyonci the commission of this offense which should; stamp, you as an irrec'aimable and utterly depraved human being, who should for the benefit society be removed from every'humanizing influence, confined in a dungeon, and branded as an outlaw for all his life.

Junicial action is not be taken uyon mere suspicion that you have Committed other offenses, but upon facts that can be substantiated. Therefore it is, that after full consideration, the Court has decided to order vou to be-confined in a State institution which has been established for the purpose of reclaiming fallen Tn thus ordering, the Court asks you to receive the sentence with humility and- thankfulness; to believe that it iis best for you, and that -you should endeavor to recognize the clemency of the law, and so to conduct yourself that you. may become educated and learn a good trade and earn the confidence of your keepers. How long youj may be confined de, ends in a great degree upon yourself- but; be as--sured it will be for many years at the best; and when you are restored to society everyone will extend to you a helping hand if you deserve consideration. Tne sentence is, that you confined the Reformatory at Elm ira until discharged according la w.

1 i-, Hf-. The Legislative Committee appointed to enquire into charges of freight discrimination by the railroads, continued in! session on Saturday forenoon, iti 'the United States Courtroom. The Hon. Thomas F. Grady took his seat with the committee.

The absent members were Messrs. Hasted, Baker, and Dnguid. I -jj: BKNNETT. This gentleman was -called as a witness. He desired to cal) the attention of the commjittee to the section of th general; railroad law passed in 1850, and amendedi in exempting certain real estate in this city between Main and Michigan 1 treets from railroad use.

jj Mr. interposing, said he could not see, what the committee had jto do with the matter of the crosstown railroad, which was in litigation, andbad been for several yeaisi The law had I been'ramended ti allow the appropriation of part of the bind specified, and it was An this part that the Central Railroad Company intended to lay their tracks. He summarized briefly history of the crosstown project, i The chairman said that the claim that the terminal facilities here had been impai red by la had been prought to the' committee's If the matter was to be taken up at all, Mr. Laning said he wanied it intelligently and fully investigated. Central' rather desired that.

thouId be, but he hardly thought the committee would desire to give the time it would require. Mr. Sterne, the counsel for the committee, 'remarked that the allegation had been advanced that the facilities were practically restricted to the Central, and to prove or disprove the charge would not take much time. Mr. Laning in reply said that the -committee would recognize the allegation as absurd were they as well informed as he concerning it.

The only trouble experienced! by the Central at this point was with the now defunct Crosstown Company, If the committee! insisted on investigating the matter- he would suggest the designation of some, future time when all. the facts could be presented, and he would furnish a map of the city. After some! further talk Mr. Bennett was allowed to step down for the I i'j CHA4LES ORRINBR' Mr. Charles Greiner; of the well-knbWn wholesale grocery firm of Miller, Greiner was next He testified that the firm hkd shipped a great many groceries from New.

York to Buffalo as fourth-class freight. They had a special rate with, the Central Railroad which was lower than the fourth-class rate, and which they were supposed to keep quiet. I He believed it was procured through Mr. Clark, who was told that the firm would ship their goods by canal if a special rate was not allowed. The agreement was only a yerbal one, but was to hold the year round.

Under it the firm were not to reveal the terms to other dealers, and were not to ship by: other lines. The special- rate was 13 cents -per cwt. made by rebates from the. regular fourth-class rate -of 23 cents. The schedule rate was not now so high' as formerly, therefore the difference was not so gftat to them.

One Winter the special rate was withdrawn for a month err so. The- firm informed the Company that unless, it was returned' they inot ship by that road the following summer. It was accordingly restored. The rebates received by the firm amounted to several thousand of dollars annually. They seldom shipped to NeW-York, and had no special rate for such shipments.

-Their special rate applied to! shipments, from several points, including New-York, Boston, and Philadelphia. Mfi Greiner understood that the Erie Railway brought goods from Newj-York and Boston at the same rates as the Central. The firm patronized the Central exclusively. Thei amount of annnal rebates, he had; mentioned included the draw-hacks on shipments from Philadelphia and Boston. Nri risks were assumed by the firm on shipments out of the usual course! In the city there were four or rive large jobbing housesequal with tjhat repre sented by the and twenty or thirty wholesale houses' not equal with Mr.

Greiner had been all his life in the business. The large houses, he said, bought principally in New-York and the omer eastern cities, maay ui 111c aiuaqicr nuuscs here were Supplied by his firm. The special rate applied to goods shipped either by the parcel or carload. 1 1 In reply to Mr. Laning, the witness said the ship ments ol the firm amounted to about a million dollars a year, two-thirds coming from New-York and lioston.

New lines of railroads and heavier tonnage on the' lakes had depressed the grain trade.

Business or the canal bad not paid f3 the last fi ve' years.

1 In reply to Mr. Hepburn the witness said the rule of supply and. demand determined the. canal rates, which were 'also effected bv the! menwho load. Tolls lie -did not think bad much to do with.

regulating rates. He, thej railroads had lost money that they might take tne busines trom the canal. I In reply, to Mr. Shipman, the. witness said that sailing vessels on the1 lakes were 1 not giting way to steam vessels.

In hu opinion sail vessels could be run at as cheap freights as steam craft. I In reply to Mr. Laning, he testified that be owned one canal-boat and controlled six sailing-vessels, four of the latter engaged in the gain trade. Canal rates had this season been as low asld 1 -a cents and as high as 0 1-4 cents, the present rate, insurance included. Railroad transit to Ne--York was much more rapid than by.

canal, a round trip by canal requiring about twenty-five, days, and a train of forty cars carrying about twice as much grain as a "canal-boat. Seven trains could be jrun in the time' necessary for a. canal-boat to -go through. I RICHARD Mr. Bullyroore, pork-packer, testified that he had been such for forty years in Buffalo.

Wth freights equal he considered this city ss favorable a point for pork-packers as any other. About! five years aco he built an establishment costing $80,000, eaual. he thoucht. in some respects, ito similar Westeim concerns, and in others When he put up this building he intended to tnak shipments to but he had found no time in which he could compete with Western houejs, the railroads diacriminatinir so largely in favor of the latter. He had never had a contract with either the Central or the Erie for special rates, and did not know that he could have obtained them on flf rates had been equal with those of the West, or it he had secured a contract like that ot Acnoetkop Matthews, he believed he could have shipped to New-York advantageously.

Even his local trade had been affected by the discrimination. Others in his business: he found, bad been better treated tftan himself. ))! I In reply to Mr. Lanincr the witness said his facil ities were such that he could produce thej very best articles, fie was not in the export trade, fus cosiness beine local. I rii't In reply to Mr.

Shipman he said the rates on stock to intermediate points between Chicago land New-York, as compared with "the through rates, thr0ugh ra interests of i -r were such as to operate acaiost the interests of the packers neie. ARTHUR. CHRISTEY, 1 This gentleman, who Is in the business of paper and stationery, testified that he procured bis stock principal'y from the East, and paid the schedule rate. He shipped principally by the Merchants' Despatch lie had made application for a special rate, and had been told that he could not then get it. Manufacturing could be done as cheaply here as at any other; point and could success fully compete with! other points If equally favorable-rates could be obtained.

He! could ship from New York to Buffalo for 43 cents, but had to pay 96 cents to return the same goods to New-York. Western men had sold goods made in the East in Buffalo, cheaper thanhe could. j'A continuance of the discrimination against the trade in this city would ultimately, wipe tt out. When he made the application for a special rate, Mr. jCnmmings told bim thejist of parties so favored was full, At the conclusion of Mr.

CQNTRACTij Durinir the session oa Friday Mr. George B. Matthews: of the firm of Scboelkopf ft jMatthews, was rcniiM to pd-" a contract existing betwei Another of our oldest and best dtiseni has passed away. Mr. Joseph Dart breathed bis but at the family residence, on the corner: of Georgia aad Niagara streets, shortly after twelve o'clock yesterday morning.

He was ode of thei most capable, active and useful of our pioneer residents, and. bis demise will be mourned and bis memory kept by a large portion of this community. The deceased- was born in MiddJe Haddam, 00 the oti of 1799. When about seventeen years of age be wentTo Utica, where be engaged in the hat and fnr business. Three or four years after that he came to Buffalo, in tbe spring of i8ai, and estftb-lished himself, with another gentleman, in the tame under the: firm name! of Stocking; Dart Their store was located on the site of the present Third National Bank, at the cwr-ner of Maia and Swan streets.

Mr. Dirt continued in partnership with Mr. i Stocking until 1843. About time he turned bis attention to tbe grain elevating business. He was thi first man to make the application of the present system of elevating grain, and he built the first steam elevator ever constructed in this country or indeed the world-It was located where the present Bennett Elevator now stands; and was known as Dart's elevator.

For about ten! he gave his attention to the elevating business, and tnen he formed a copartnership his brother. Mr. Erastus D. Dart, and his brother-in-law, Mr. Wm.

H. Ovington, and engaged in fhe planing-mili and lnmber business. In the year 1861, Mr. Ovingtoi. withdrew, and the business" has since been, conducted under the firm name of Dart Bro.

Mr. Dart was always a very methodical and industrious man of business, and bis standing in the community was ever of the most honorable character. He was one of the founders of the Buffalo Female Academy, and was likewise an ardent aid life-long supporter of various local organizations and chanties, and there are few of our citizens who have done more to Sustain and perpetuate the First Presbyterian church; and the Historical Society than did the deceased. He was' one of the oldest members of the First church. Although; never having, held any political office, Mr.

Dart was a man who studied politics attentively and always cast his vote on the side) of truth, justice, and progression. He also took a great interest in local affairs, and never hesitated to render all of the assistance that lay in his power to advance the welfare jof Buffalo. i I i Up to within a week the deceased had enjoyed very good health and had retained in a marked' degree the Vigor and the power of his! mental- faculties. He spent the greater part of the past in visiting friends and relatives in the East and on Thursday last he went out driving at home. But during Friday he complained of feeling unwell, and went to bed, and from that time he failed grad ually until the time of his He was eighty yeare of age and leaves three children, one son, Joseph Dart, and two daughters, one the wife of the Rev.

A. Plumb, of Boston Highlands, and the other Miss Sarah M. Dart. ORDAINED TO THE PRIESTHOOD. On Sunday, Sept.

28, the sixteenth Sunday after in SL Luke's Church, Buffalo, was ordained to the Priesthood the Rev Rudolf Wahl, formerly of the University of Berlin. Bishop Coxe was assisted in the laying on of hands by the Rev. R. J. Germain, who presented the! candidate, and by the Rev.

F. Granger, as also by the Rev. O. E. Herrick of the Diocese of Massachusetts, i On this occasion tbe Bishop preached on the' words of our Lord Jesus Christ (St.

John 21, 22, my father hath sent me, even so send I you," etc. The sermon was an exposition of this striking passage, which, the Bishop argued, could not have been designed to found a temporary college of preachers, but a lasting order of men, who should carry on Christ's own divine mission and work to the end of time, as His instruments for serving and saving the souls of men. Speaking of the candidate," he observed that mature in 1 years and ripe in scholarship he had devoted hinlself to a noble work among bis German kinsmen, which he trusted that valuable class of our foreign-born population Would more and more appreciate. It was designed in a spirit which Melanchthon, if not Luther himself, would have blessed; in the spirit of inviting German Christians to unite with us in a form of Christianity greatly resembling their own, and better suited to identify them and their children speedily with Americans, with, great advantage to the cause of Christ, as well as to themselves. The Bishop paid, a hearty tribute to the German character as seen tne recoras or iaoo years, ana welcomed the Teutonic immigration, as promising lasting Denents to tnts country while tie deprecated the multiplication ot religious sects, was a threatened consequence, a waste pf money and of; strength to the Christian which required unity -for its warfare against irrelicion and unbelief.

The Bishop remarked on, the antecedents of the reverend missionary as adapted to command the respect of all Christians. Among other facts he mentioned Mr. Wahl's travelr. in 1 Russia and Tur key, and two years of his life Spent in the Holy Land; his attainments as a linguist and -a; scholar, and the honor in which he had been held by Bishop rtuntington, wno ordained him deacon, buch a clergyman is indeed an acquisition to our city, and all should be ready to encourage his self-denying work. 1 1 It ACADEMY OF MUSIC.

The largest audience of an exceptionally brilliant week, attended the Academy of Music on Saturday evening, the closing evening of Miss Mary Anderson's signally successful- engagement, and was entertained with a ma.rvelIously effective rendition of one of the exacting and impassioned roles the young queen ot the stage has essayed. It was that of the Coiinttss Xn Sheridan Knowle's play of Love," a play which in many -year has been little known to the stage. The part presents the strong passions- in their intensity, to successfully sustain it, let alone to popularize1 it, must call a high order of genius into action. That Miss Ander son achieved a splendid success; the enthusiasm manifested by so intelligent and critical an audience is of itself sufficient proof. It is a golden addition to her repertoire.

I At the Saturday afternoon -matinee Miss Ander son impersonated Parthenia most! charmingly, as we hardly need add, and Mr. Milnes Levick was very fine as jngomar. This evening, and also toytnorrow evening, Messrs, Richmond and Von Boyle and their company will again produce their exceedingly! funny play of Our Candidate." I It made a fine hit in the early part of last week, and will doubtless continue to draw, i jj On Wednesday evening the Academy will be closed. I Beginning with Thursday evening and closing with the week, Miss Lina Tittenbom, a young lady who as a German soubrette is described as very talented and animated: will produce a comic drama entitled Tina, the Milk-vender of German- town. 1 -J!

Dr. Hunt j-cad portions of the 6th and 7th Chapters of 2d Chionicles. Tbe Hymn, And will the great Eternal God," was then Sung. The pastor announced that hereafter divine. worship will be held in the chapel at half-past ten o'clock in the morning and half-past seven in the evening of every; Sunday.

He then introduced the Rev. Dr. Huntington, who preached the dedicatory sermon. Ilia text was Selected from Exodus, chap. 17, Verse vii: Is the Lord among us or not' At the close of Dr.

Huntington's discourse Mr. Francis H. Root, who was the Treasurer of the building fund for the new chapel, made a few remarks. He said that When the members of the Delaware Avenue church became interested in.the Glenwood Avende Mission they little thought that in so short! a time they would have Such an elegant and comfortable structure for worship as (hey had to-day. They had chosen that locality and had (riven the persons living in thai vicinity a place of worship.

The work! of building a new chapel, advanced very slowly at first, but finally it was pushed on the theory that a church once established would soon become self-sustaining and not be an addition to the mother church. JHe then gave a detailed statement of the financial affairs of the chapel, the totals ot which vere as follows: Total cost of building USD PfJU UUL. 3jloa 03 Balance 19 Dr. Huntington said the chapel was now a little behind financially, and he proposed a subscrip tion to raise the full amount. 1 he followim; dona-.

A WONDERFUL REVOLUTION, I 4 Time brings tremendous changes in nations and governments, and the; influences ol these changes are felt by the people of the whole world put time has rarely brought about a more radical and beneficial change than is perceptible in the modern methods of imparting instruction to the rising In the days of our boyhood the Only way open to tne acquisition of knowledge pertaining to business was to take the lowest position in some business house and work up by degrees, generally requiring jseveral years to get! anywhere near the top. About twenty-five years -ago the Messrs. Bryant Stratton inaugurated system of business education, designed Ito prepare young men and ladies.

too for business positions a lew months instead years. It was also claimed by these gentlemen: young men could be fitted in a much more thorough and substantial manner, giving them a better gen-enral knowledge of business than it was possible for them ito get by serving an apprenticeship in any one 'business house, The Business College had grown out of a business and under tbe skillful management of Bryant Stra'tton was soon jrecogmzed by business men as one of the indispeusabte instruments of modern business progress, But the wonderful revolution was brought about by the inauguration of a Practical Department, which was first instituted by Mr. J. Bryant at the Buffalo Business College. This actual business department, illustrated by the cut in another part of this paper, epitomizes real business houses, and brings all tbe business transactions before the student as if it were a perfect, business panorama.

But the half cannot be told in a newspaper article. We advise all who have sons or daughters to educate to call at the college rooms, in 1, 11 Brown punaing, corner 01 iuam ana aenecs streets, where they will be shown the workings of a superior modem business scnooi.

Whether be gave them ia curves or out carves, or varied the programme with rising curves or drop curves, the event was tbe same they lashed frantically into empti ness, or sent the ball obligingly into the hands of some ambitious fielder. But on Saturday they evened up with a vengeance, ia fact if the evening could have been divided up and tome of the parts put to the nine's credit ia other games they "might smile from a prouder pedestal tbati they now occupy, It was the day of Mr.

Hankinson's great grief, with which some four hundred spectators failed to sympathize. I On the other hand they had thej fill of shouting and voices were hoarse and stamping until their their mnscles) 7 sore. Alter tne eighth innings the game was Called on account of darkness, but eight innings were enough to score no less than seven teen runs for the Buffalos to five for the Chkagos. The borne nine played without an With such fielding was coupled work with the bat which netted no less than twenty-two hits. It may well be imagined that the raps were both frequent and Ordinarily the Chicagos' nine hits with a total of eleven would not be very bad, and fewer hits have won games, but the odds on this occasion were overwhelming, added to which the visitors fielded very loosely.

They presented the same nine as on Friday. Not so the Buffalos. Clapp had been painfully hurt in the previous game and be was not yet in just the right condition for his accustomed place, so Rowe was put in to. and lest Galvin might prove quite too much of a catapult for him to handle McGunnigle was sent to the centre, permitting the Gentle James to enjoy! the fun at his! leisure in the grand stand. The change pitcher and the change catcher both did remarkably fine service.

The Buffalos won the toss and went to the 'field. Dalryrnple began the battle With a safe hit into the centre field, and skipped to second on little Peters's bunt to the pitcher, who threw him out at first. Then Williamson's hit advanced! Dalryrnple to third, arid when the ball was next pitched the former trotted to the second bag Gore then batted to the short-stop's territory and Force sent the ball to Rowe, but not in time to prevent Dalryrnple from scoring. Flint hit to Crowley and was thrown out at first and Walker caught Gore: at second, but Williamson had ioiprdved the opportunity to cross the home plate. The Buffalos then came in for a picnic, and had a jolly time with Hankinson.

Crowley got to first on nine poor balls, after which those who came to the bat bit so safely and hard that four runs were counted- before tbe side was retired. In the next for the Buffalos Richardson's three-baser and Rowe's hit to Peters secured another tally. Quest in the fourth innings struck a two-baser, 'and was brought home by sacrifice hits made by Hankinson and Remsen. Then the Buffalos went in for another frolic, five of them completing the circuit of the bases. Force and Eggler both scored in the fifth, the former: being sent to first on called balls, Eggler and Crowley following him with hits', and Peters assisting their race around the circuit by muffing a throw from Dalryrnple.

In the sixth the Chicagos obtained their last two runs. In the seventh, of nine Buffalos to the bat six made good hits, and helped by Hankinson's muff of Flint's throw-at the brought more runs to tne number ot nve. Altogether it was a great day for the Buffalos, as the following score fully shows: I I 1 r-Battinr. Bait Fielding) -Bate r-Fieldingi- K.B. L.B.

I Pursuant to the call issued by President Hurl burt, a special meeting ot the League will convene in! this city, at Pierce's Palace Hotel, this forenoon at (en clock. The directors and stock-holders have a meeting at Comnanv narlors to-morrow eveninr. which will probably determine the question of a nine or no nine next year. 1 -A despatch from Norwich, says it is stated that, a match has been arranged between Wallace Ross and John and James Riley for $500 a side, to be rowed there about the 10th ot October. An Associated Press despatch, dated at Jamestown on Saturday, says: Interest in the coming boat race is cn the increase.

Five excursion steam ere will bring passengers to Dunkirk from Canada on the morning ot October 16th. Courtney and Hanlan were but this morning for practice. An effort is making to have both men remove their quarters down the lake. Hanlan and others visited various points this afternoon to see what arrange ments can be made. Hanlan to-day launched his new shell, the built especially for this race.

Courtney new paper shell has been ordered from -Waters of Troy, and will be here Monday. -The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle of yes-t terday says: The following despatch was received by Mr. Soule yesterday, which is self-explanatory: 1 Mawillk, N. Sept 27, 1879. T.

Soule. President Hon Bitters: i Courtney and Hanlan have sent, a letter to-day as fol lows: I I 1 1) Hup Bitters Manufacturing Company. Rochester. N. Gentlemen In consequence of the physical condition of Mr.

Hanlan being such that be will require more time to recover hia full powers than be would have if tbe Hep Bitten prise were rowed October 8th. aa per original agreement, we have mutually agreed that, with your, consent, the race be postponed until Thursday, October 16th, Mr. Blaikie, the referee, having given his consent to the post ponement, ana we nereoy mutually agree uuu we win positively row on that day, water permitting. Truatmg yon wui see tne importance 01 tne request ana gTani it, we remain, truly yours, cdward ixamlaji, Chaklks E. Coubtnxy, I This statement of affairs! should have been made in the but Mr, Soule is no stickler for small and with the assurance that tbe race will be pulled on tbe totn, ne is oDiigeo 10 re main content.

It will require considerable audacity for eithet Courtney or Hanlan to back out under the present circumstances, and we fancy that neither 01 them would care to brave tne puDiic nowi 01 wrath by such a it may be fairly assumed that the race will be rowed, and if there is any crooked business it will have to be Well arranged to escape the eye of the public, whose suspicions have already been A POINT IN PRACTICE; point of considerable interest to the legal pro fession was recently decided by the Court of Ap peals in one of the cases of Marvin against Marvin, which have been so prolific of questions of practice. In 1877 a judgment was rendered in j. the Supreme Court on a trial before Justice Barker in favor of Geonre L. Marvin against Le Grand Marvin. Sub sequent to the entry of judgment Le Grand Marvin procured from, Justice Barker an order extending thd (time within which to prepare and serve case and exceptions on appeal to the General Term from the udgment.

Afterwards, and without serving Justice Barker's order, Le Grand Marvin procured from Judge Charles Beckwith, of the Superior Court of Buffalo a series of orders enlarging; the time, and also obtained from him an order staying proceedings for the collection of the judgment. A motion was made before Justice Haight at tbe Special Term of the Supreme Court by Geo. I Marvin to set aside these orders granted by the Superior Court Judge, on the ground that a Judge of the Superior Court had no power to stay proceedings ia the Supreme Court after verdict report or decision, and for the reason that the four orders extending tune were irregular. Justice Haight at Special Term set aside the orders of Judge Beckwith, fully considering in his opinion the sections of the code afiecung the point raised. LeGrand Marvin appealed to the General Term which affirmed Justice Haights decision.

He then appealed to the Court of Appeals, which has also affirmed the order. It tnay therefore be considered settled that Judges ol' the bn-perior Court of Buffalo are within the rjwroions of section 772 of the code, and are not authorized to grant sucbstays.
