Yesterday af ternoou, at haif-past3 o'clock, considerable stir was created in the Tombs Police Conrt by tbe appearance of Superintendent Kelso and ether ofnoera, having in charge a fashionably drconod yonng Lady, accompanied by Mr. Dolalield Smith, and Wm. i Howe.

Gloomy and solemnly looking also appeared Mr. Llbridge T. Gerry and KevDH Abraham B. Carter, pastor of the Church of our bavior (Protestant Episcopal), in Twenty-fifth street, between Madison and Lexington avenues. The lady was dressed in a black silk, flonnce dress, heavy rich velvet oloak, trimmed with lace, and bine hat, with a pearl-colored veil.

She seemed very demure and excited, evidently frightened, as Judge Dowling took bis seat in the examination room and formally commenced reading tbe charge on which she had been arrested. A Herald reporter conversed with her for a few moments on the subject of her arrest bnt she so persistently continued to call in the name of her counsel, as though it were a shield, that the reporters humauo intentions of giving her a cbanoe to put in a response to the subjoined affidavit were frustrated by hercelf.

It Is the duty of our Diplomatic Corps to keep the State Department fully advised of the strength or weakness of all foreign Powers. Ia pursuance of this duty. Mr. George P. Marsh, Minister to Italy, wrote a not over-11 Altering account of the nature and prospects of that Government.

The message was In cipher, but was translated and published by the blunder of a able presence, tall, slender, wearing a fujl beard, and ia a typical Englishman. Mr. Bright said his KB. GEIILTl'S UETIEB TO CHAUDLKK. The indications are pretty plain that Mr.

Horace Greeley, of the New York Tribune, will not support General Grant for re-election, ercn if he be nominated by the Philadelphia Convention. This is a circumstance of rery considerable importance in a party point of view. The New York Tribune and its editor constitute a power in the land. As an educator of publio opinion, that paper has been, and is yet, respectesl by a widespread population. There are many thousands in all parts of the country who have grown np under the teaching of that journal, and the course which it shall, take in a Presidential campaign aannot be a matter of indifference to politicians.

The State of New York is an important battle-ground; the Electoral rote of the State is of the utmost gravity, and the comparative numerical strength of parties requires intelligent and harmonious organization. The City of New York is of itself of snch importance that upon the management of the organization therein depends success or defeat in the State. Mr. Greeley was in 1S71 the official head of the Republican organization in the city, and enjoyed the confidence and respect of the Republicans in that city. This organization was broken up, When Dr.

Huston had resumed his seat Dr. Munsey arose and moved tbat the matter lie referred to the Presiding Elder of the East Baltimore District, with instruction to call a court, and proceed to an immediate father waa still in very poor health. "Although," said he, as long aa he keeps himself in his, re tirement, and aloof from any exoitemenf, he suf fers scarcely at all. He writes his letters and re ana thorough investigation. Dr.

Muniey said, in corroboration of what Dr. Huston bad stated, that he (Dr. Munsev) and Mr. ceives his friends aa he has alwaya done." In answer to tbe question aa to when his father would be able to resume his Parliamentary du Magrnder had advised him (Dr. Huston) to leave tne city.

A question was here asked as to whether Christian clergyman, and, indeed, the young lady alM) behaved herself with commendable grace and modesty, an odd tear, forced or therie, at times rolling down her cheek. She was very anxious not to have her name appear in tbe morning papers, and implored her counsel, Mr. William F. Howe, to beg of the reporters not to do snch a thing. The burlv arm of the creat criminal law ver was ces, Mr.

Bright remarked "That la now Jtnd- It will be a matter of congratulation to the publio to know that we have a universal patent Tester of offioialintegrity among ns, who can afford to devote his valuable time, without hope of reward, to the reformation of the Civil Service. Snob, instances of self-devotion to the best interests of the country, and to the cause of moral reform, with no hope of compensation beyond the approval of his own conscience, and the satisfaction which always follows good actions, are very rare in this naughty world. Under such an application of moral tests, tbe prospects of our Internal Revenue Department are very bright, and, as the Tester can "make every tne trial oy tne Church must await the issue of a civil trial likely to be institut- Bishop Paine replied there con Id bo no cleik in the State Department." The Italian Ministry has, of course, been forced to complain of an official proclamation of their Inefficiency, and the probability la that Mr. March will be punished for doing his duty by losing his official head. Thta inexouaable blundering recalls a some bat similar ease in 1870.

To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune; Sot: I have been rather amused by reading a pamphlet entitled "Low Servioe System for the Supply of Water, Applied to Chicago," by Messrs. F. Whitehonse, G.

C. Morgan, C. and Wm. Zimmerman, C. E.

I have also read the favorable comments of Thb Tslbohb on the same: but, as the experience of editors in pipe-laying is confined to that ethereal kind known as political, and most of which bursts when thoroughly tested, it would be rather uncharitable to oritloise unfavorably their rather limited knowledge of hydraulics, although the same rule does not apply to gentlemen who profess to be water engineers in theory and practice. They start with the proposition that an abundant supply of pare water at a sufficient head is absolutely necessary for the well-being ot every city; which is Just the time-honored way of begging the question. Everybody knows that who knows anything, and I will now proceed to show that their "Low Servioe System is a full-fledged absurdity, and well worthy of being hatched within the cranium of that greatest of Illusionists, George Francis Train. It would cost millions of dollars to introduce this system throughout ths city, aa the main An amendment was then offered to the pending motion, to the effect that it is the Christian judgment of this Conference tbat Dr. Huston should, in the meantime, desist firm all ministerial functions.

Orville is the great desideratum of our times. rest of character is to work a discontinuance of all efhoial action on the part of the ao curea.

The amendment was not pressed. A brother here remarked "I hope the icBiaiDg jiaer win coneiaer one word in the reooiution the word I think tbat Dr. Huston's character and tbe and its Chairman deposed, in September last, by force, and that force the spoils of Federal offices. Though a military commander did not break np the Republican organization in New York City, and disperse its delegates, the civil employes of the Federal Government, under Collector Murphy, committed the same outrage jnst as effectually as if they had been in uniform, armed with Springfield rifles, and under the command of an officer in shoulder-straps. This proceeding was a gross outrage by the Federal power upon the Republican party, and, as was intended, upon Mr.

Greeley personally. The fact that this Federal interference to bolt from the regular Xepnblican organization and degrade Mr. Greeley was countenanced and defended by a Senator of the United States, who had the disposal of the offices, aggravated the indignity. Since that time the personal hounding Our prisons punish crime severely enough, but they reform orimipala but Indifferently well. Men and women graduate from a penitentiary in a state of mind the reverse of penitent; are free for a few days er weeks, and then go back to their old quarters under sentence for new crimes.

One great reason for this, outside the defects in Jail management. Is the difficulty in obtaining employment, with whloh every discharged prisoner meets. Often he Is forced back Into dishonesty.

There is no mistaking the fatal, guilty, criminal nature of those fraudulent bills, two-thirds of whose sum was made out for the benefit of Tammany and its chiefs, and one-third as compensation to Garvey for work done for the city. Nor can any American jury shut their eyes to the fact that the auditing of these bills by Mayor Hall, without requiring the usual affidavit of their justice, sufficiently proves the criminal intent on his part.

A stock company for the prosecution of the Mr. Cramer. Minister to Copenhagen, the pride of our diplomatic service, has managed to get into another difficulty.

On the other hand, the North Sohleswlg Gazette, German paper, says that this is merely political Indignation, and seeks to condone for Cramer by remarking: He is a very harmless person, not perceptibly fit for the position he occupies, but fruit-preserving business, is being organized in hen Mrs. Bnrklin returned home in tho x.iuer was an aa tworxm proceeaing, which was only legal when there was no higher tribunal in act ual session, which could assume jurisdiction, inquiry was again made as to what would Princeton. afternoon She told Ons of the ventlernn ate expense out iney ao not ten ns now tue water is to be rawed to do the cleansing of tbe latter and we are also left in darkness as to the means they are to adopt in oleaasing tne sewers, which are, of necessity, several feat above their water-head.

Mr.

Howe immediately took charge of the lady, whisked her out of court in a minute, and soon returned, effulgent as usual, brimful of gossip about the caaa, tbat without a particle of useful information in all his "yarn." Tbe essence of the defence has been gleaned from the officers who made the arrest, to whom the told her story. It seems tbat Mias Couch made the acquaintance of Bev. Or.

The officers say that she alleges against the clergyman very many naughty things, and one thing in particular, which is of verv serious The divorce suit of Mary Ann Hart e.

The Bishop answered, while his character of the New York Tribune and its editor by the Federal satraps in New York has been continued, and tbe same small-beer politicians have taunted him with the statement that he would have to support General Grant for re-election anyhow, because they would make him do so. Meekness is not Mr. Greeley's most conspicuous trait. He has consistently expressed his opposition to the renomination of the President, refused to attach his name to the call of the Convention whose action he might have to oppose, and boldly told a subscriber who complained that the Tribune was not a "good party paper," that the Tribune never had been, and never would be, a party paper in that sense and that, if any of its subscribers supposed that it was, they onght to have their minds disabused forthwith.

Hence the robbery of the vouchers from the Comptroller's office simultaneously with the resignation of Connolly.

Now that it is known what the character of these vouchers was, and why they were stolen, the question recurs, Who was the thief Perhaps the best answer is found in the rumor that, simultaneously with the appearance of Garvey, ex-Comptroller Connolly fled.

The attempt to check Mr.

Greeley's progress by denouncing him as "a bolter" will fail, especially in the light of the fact that the entire Federal faction in New York not only bolted the regular organization of the party last fall, but made their bolt successful by the employment of brute force, hired and paid for out of the public revenues. The politicians in and around Washington greatly underrate pnblie intelligence when they assume that Mr. Greeley can be impeached as a Republican by calling hint a bolter, in view of what happened at that time. We incline to the opinion that, outside of the circle who hold or deal in offices and General Orders, Mr. Greeley will not be expected to make craven submission to those who have warred upon the party organization in order to degrade him.

There is hardly a precinct in the country where there are not more or less voters who have a higher respect for Horace Greeley.edi-tor of the New York Tribune, than they have for any person holding office. No cry of bolter" will terrify these voters, any more than they terrify Greeley. Devotion to party is a characteristic of American politics, hut it will be sad day for the country when the man who firmly resist such transactions as that of Murphy, Conkling, Cornell St backed by the whole power of the Federal Government, fails to command sympathy and respect.

That Mr. Jussen might not be utterly astonished at the coolness of this proposition, Orville hastened to inform him that there could be no fraud in such a transaction, urging the disingenuous excuse, that, if he declined, the Government would gain nothing, because it would collect only the revenue on the actual product, and, if he consented, the Government would still get the same amount of revenue.
