City Court Rcfore Judge (IrecttuoodCieil FRIDAY. MAVIS. 185S. The Injunction The argument in this case came on this morning. The corporation of the city of Brooklyn being cited 6y an order of the Court to show; cause why an injunction should not issued restraining said corporation from proceeding to remow the City Treasurer.

Judge Kent and D. Field, appeared on behalf of the city of Brooilyn, and Mr. Dikftnan for the Treasurer. The case being called on, both parties expressed themselves ready to proceed. The Court observed that he should direct tbe discussion to be confined to the preliminary question which he conceived to be.

First Does not the Charter of the city of Brooklyn confer, upon the Common Council the exclusive jurisdiction to determine iu the first instance whether the plaintiff has been guilty of such misconduct as justifies his removal. If so, is not his proper remedy in the event of an unjustifiable determination, a mandamus to restore him or a certiorari to remove the proceeding for review Second Wbetner title to office is involved either by claim to, or right to retain it is not the Supreme Court the only tribunal which can determine or entertain jurisdiction of the question If it is then First As the same rule in this respect existed prior to the new constitution, when that Court had no equity jurisdiction, and consequently no power to grant an injunction, can this remedy be had now Seco7id Assuming that it can, if the Supreme Court have the jurisdiction to determine the principal question, must they not, as they have now equity jurisdiction, also grunt the incidental remedy of an injunction A telegraphic diap4tcll.from: New Orleans announces the arrival of the steamship Philadelphia from Aspinwall with the California mails and 250.: passengers.

At Rochester, last Monday, "one Brama Pootra crower and two hens" sold for $150 chickens four weeks old, $1 eggs, 50 cents The crops of wheat, rye and grass, never looked more promising at this season of the year, in Eastern Pennsylvania; and we believe the same remark applies to other States The Universalist church at Parma Cor ners, Monroe county, was destroyed by firr on Monday night The steamer Hiram Powers was destroyed by fire on the Wabash River on Saturday last, together with a full load of pro duce for Cincinnati The store and dwelling of Mrs. Barron, at Tousentown, Baltimore county, were destroyed by fire on Wednesday night, and two children of Mrs. Nathan Ware were burned to death. whole number of deaths ascertained to have resulted from the catastrophe at Nor walk is forty five.

Curiosity may have partially lifted the veil but still much remains in doubt. All these appointments are to be made and announced within a fortnight.

the wheat growing portions of this State the crops generally look well. There is a large amount on the ground, and its average condition compares well with the crops of previous years at this season. A Challengb. The splendid clipper ships built in this country have no equals in the world and, since the recent extraordinary passages of the clipper, Sovereign of the Seas, which made the run from Honolulu to New York in eighty two days and those of the Comet and Flying Dutchman in eighty three and a half and eighty five days, there has been quite an excitement, and a good deal of discussion, among commercial men relative to the merits of sharp vessels. At a recent gathering of merchants on one of these vessels, beta were made to the effect that the Comet will beat the Queen of Clippers from New York to San Francisco that the Young America will beat the Qneen of Clippers that the Comet will beat the Young America and that the Flying Cloud will beat the Queen of Clippers.

There is, however, a wager of more importance on the tapis. A merchant, whose name is not given, offers to stake $60,000 or $100,000, that the Sovereign of the Seas, under the command of Captain Wilson, a Baltimorean, now master of the ship Andalusia, will outsail any vessel in the world. The trial to be made from New York to San Francisco, and the vessels to go in ballast or otherwise, as may be desired, and to sail within thirty days of each other or together. So confident is this person of the Qeetness of the Sovereign of the Seas, that he throws down the gauntlet to the shipping merchants of the United States and Europe. The Sovereign of the Seas is a Boston ship, built by Donald McKay, and is consigned to the firm of Grinnell, Minturn Co.

She is now unloading at pier 5 North River, and will no doubt be visited by the curious in marine matters on account of this challenge. Father Gavazzi. The farewell lecture of Father Gavazzi at the Athenaeum last night, was attended by a large audience, but not so crowded as on the previous occasion. His lecture was in the same spirit as the former one, only a little stronger the same beverage with a little more spice in it. He maintained that the Pope was not the successor of St.

Peter, who wa3 never in Rome at all. He urged Americans to have the Bible studied in the schools, and to make them Protestant schools. He warned them to watch Jesuits or they would destroy their liberties. He had been called to destroy Popery in Italy he had endeavored to destroy it in England and now he would strive to destroy it in America. He urged all other sects to unite against it, and to preserve civil and religious liberty.

He was warmly applauded during the delivery of the lecture. A Duel More Ink A citizen entered the office of the Cincinnati Nonpareil the. other day, with a revolver in his hand, to shoot the editor for publishing him.

This does not indicate a very excited state in the money market. On Wednesday afternoon, a lady, while passing through Flushing avenue, TOlliams bu'rgh, was attacked and thrown across a picket tence by a mad bull, by which she was dangerously injured. She was conveyed to her residence, and it is said her recovery is doubtful. Patrick Laha was arrested yesterday for stealing cigars. He had broken open a case of cigars belonging to the United States, which was lying iu Ford's store, foot of Joralemon street.

He was taken before Justice D. K. Smith, who, not having jurisdiction, held him for trial before the U. S. Marshal.

This edifice is built ot brick, in the Gothic style of architecture, and cost, including a fine organ.about $9,000. On Sunday next, Rev. Mr. Shlater, of Poughkeepsie, is to be installed pastor.

Heavy Verdict. Tbe case of Gen. Wade against the proprietors of the Brooklyn Union Ferry Company, tried in the circuit Court of New York, and the pleadings of which we published on Wednesday, resulted in a verdict of $6,000 against the company for injuries sustained by Gen Wade on one of the ferry boats in December last. Cruelty to a HonsE.Acartman named Wm. Gnbbins was arrested yesterday by officer Har rold, of the 1st District police, on the charge of cruelly beating a horse, and for assaulting Wm.

Torray, who expostulated with him on his conduct. He was brought before Justice Smith and fined $5 for the first offence, and held in $100 bail to answer on the second charge. The awnings are going up, so is the price of brown veils, those delusive bits of gauze that give 3uch a beautiful Nubian tint to the female face. Men cannot recognize their own wives in the streets any longer, when disguized in one of those 'brown kivers," As a complete protection against the gaze of loaferdom they are a triumph, but as an article of dress, they are shocking, execrable. Escaped from Custody.

Yesterday afternoon a man named Thomas Heuiff, generally called "Tinker Tom." was brought before Justice Curtis for examination, on the charge of highway robbery on a Mr. Leddy, and assault with a dangerous weapon on Thomas Costigan, in Atlantic street, but managed to work off his handcuffs while being taken to jail by Deputy Sheriff 0' Rourke. and escaped. He has not since been heard of. Moneyed Institutions, they say, are powerful.

No doubt, of it. Deposit $30,000 in a bank, and you may become a king pin at once. Although the officers may have previously looked upon you with contempt, and treated you with the shabbiest kind of decorum, yet you may become a gracious gentleman by the couutenance of your money. Yea, you can have signatures to anything, for the mere asking. What a glorious thing it is to have the depositing of money.

Sprisg axd Matrimony. The mild and genial air of Spring is working wonders in the matrimonial market. It may be a startling fact to matrimony is carrying off more young folks than a frightful epidemic. There is not a day passes, nor Eagle issued, but what our "marriage head" is called into requisition, to announce the fact that a couple of devoted ones have been swearing to love, cherish and protect each other. What are we coming to People's geese are all swans now.

No one who has any thing to dispose of can find terms in the Anglo Saxon language sufficiently magnificent to describe it. If an auctionear has some lots for sale in an imaginary village on some unexplored corner of Long Island, they are situated on a rapidly improving locality, and offer a splendid investment for capital, although they may be twenty miles from a railway, ten from a highway, and fifteen from the nearest grocery store. The drapery of Solomon's temple was but a sham compared to the magnificence of a modern dry goods store. We are fast realising the new Jerusalem with its walls of jasper, gates of pearl, and side walks of pure gold like transparent glass. We are a great people, especially, for gathering in the dimes.

Mr. Ripley and Family. The death of Mr. and Mrs. Ripley, and two of their family, by the terrible accident on the Jenuy Lind, will come borne with particular emphasis to many of our citieens.

Mr. Ripley resided in Hicks street, near Pierrepont, and iu the morning, when he left for his business in New York, was generally accom panied by these two children, now no more, and another one.who, if living, is left a solitary or phan. They would go with him down as far as the grocery store of Mr. Eames, where they were generally rewarded for affeciionate conduct by oranges, apples, or raisons, and bidding their father good morning, would hurry back in' high glee; to their home. Mr.

Ripley at first went to California alone, but subsequently sent for his family. They were all with him on the pleasure trip of the Jenny Lind, when the sad catastrophe took place, which brought parents and children to an untimely end. Like Saul and Jonathan, tbey were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death were not divided. To Housekeepers.

The fact alluded to was his being a to a limited extent, in the Mechanics' Bank.

Mr. Mulford is Treasurer as well as Cashier of the Mechanics' Bank, and had he the control of the city funds, he might be disposed to place them in that bank, which might benefit that Institution. Although the Court could not act under a bias in the matter, he thought it proper to suggest it as a reason why he should not, perhaps, have interfered in the matter. If the defendants had no objection to proceed with the argument, the court was prepared to hear the case. Mr.

Field: observed that there was no objection on their side to proceed. In order to expedite the matter they had prepared answers to the main questions to have the matter fully passed upon. There was one other question which he wished to suggest to the Court, which was, whether the Court had jurisdiction over the city of Brooklyn. The power of removal is in the Common Council, which is not a corporate body. The Court observed that he should not restrain the counsel from bringing up the question.

Mr. Dikeman said that even if the particular thing complained of or charged against the Trea surer were true, whether it constitutes a misconduct or not is a question of law and not of fact. He read the following preamble and resolution of the Common Council calling upon Mr. Mulford to appear before the Common Council to answer why he should not be removed from office. Whereas, It is stated that warrants of the city drawn upon the Treasurer have been protested for non payment, and whereas in the opinion of this Common Council it is a dereliction of duty on the part of the Treasurer to refuse payment ot such warrants while there are ample funds in the Treasury, it is, therefore, Resolved, That the Treasurer be notified, in pursuance of Sec.

29, Title 3 ot the Charter, to appear before the Common Council on Monday next, at 5 P. to state what reasons, if any he has, why he should not be removed from office for misconduct. He insisted that there were no facts stated in the preamble charging Mr. Mulford with anything. It merely said that it was reported Mr.

Mulford had done so and so; it was a mere pnb lic rumor. The matter was still in progress when we went to press. Our reporter left at half past twelve, at which time there was no officer or director of the Bank present, save Mr. Mulford. Probably the rest had gone to dinner.

Thk Firk on tub Newtown Road. We published, yesterday, the exclusive intelligence of the burning of some out houses belonging to the estate of James Schnonmaker the damage being from S1.200 to and insured $701). The stable, a cow and a quantity of hay, were bunted; also a stable and corn crib adjoining were considerably damaged, and but for the timely arrival of several of the Williamsburgh fire companies, much property would have been destroyed. The buildings belonged to the Messrs. Schoonuiuker, and were occupied by a German farmer named Wesser.

As the engines were passing through North Second street, on their return, a boy named Thomas Murphy, residing at No. 15C South Third street, in attempting to avoid a wagon, fell under Engine No. 1 and hud his right arm and foot badly bruised by one ot the wheels passing over them. He was conveyed to his residence by members of the company. The St.

Thomas Chdbch Case. The City Court has been occupied for the past few days in trying an action for trespass, brought by the trustees of the St. Thomas Church, in Willough by street, against Thomas Dobsou and Abraham B. Flower. The Defendants were charged with having, on the 30th of March last, removed the furniture ef the church, which, it appears was claimed by Dobson, as mortgagee, under a mort gage executed by S.

B. Daley. Some forty wit nesses were examined on tbe part of the plaintiff. It was contended that there was no consideration for the mortgage, and therefore, defendants had no legal right to enter. The case was given to the iurv vesterdav afternoon, and a verdict of S150 damages was rendered for the plaintiffs.

The amount claimed was $1,500. I Brooklyn City Guard, Brooks. This crack company turned out for parade yesterday afternoon, accompanied by Dodworth's band.
