Finally he began to get drinks of me, and would set at a table, order the best in the house, and tell me to put it on the slate. I did so, and his bill finally reached the sum of When I finally Bpoke about a settlement he asked me how much he owed me and I told him I9.M. He said be didn't owe me so much, and he fetched round a book and said he had put down in it all the drinks he had got, and that according to bis book be only owed me $1 and odd cents. I showed him my bill and tried to bring to his recollection the times at whioh the different items had been obtained by him, but he refused to listen.

"Dldnt I tell you not to give my wife anything 3" he said. I told him I badnt done so, all she had got was two quarts of lager, and that I was willing to scratch off the account. Then he said he wouldn't pay me, and I told him to get out of my plaoe. He came into my place three times after that and bullied me about his bill; said he'd never pay me andmat he could lick any in York street.

NEAR COURT STREET, BROOKLYN. The on It house in Bn jwioXatPWom honso ia Brooklyn that oa TIME at LOW Little Tom Allen the English Bruiser, Whips the Western olant. For the past six weeks the theiveS, gam Here and "roughs" of the principal Compose the mix of the Prize Blng in this conn try, hive been duly exercised over the ring fight between the big, Duny Irish Amerioan, Hike HoOoole one of the barroom bullies of St. Louis and the noted English bruiser, and'TBrumagenlad" Tom Allen, named to tike plioe nm at, Louis, yesterday. Oa Monday the two pnnoi pala In the fight went through thefaroo of being arretted and held to bill to "keep the pesos," but thin did not deter them in the least from proceeding witn Ihelr arrangements for their meeting in the ring, and; aooordlngly at the time and place appointed the fight took plaoe, and the morning papers of the principal cities went to the expense of telegraphing the disgusting details of the fight, thus aiding in the press notoriety which is the life of (he prize ring in Amorios, and its sole support.

Each oontestant entered the ring to win $2,600 by trying his best to knock his adversary "ost of time." For half a day the vilest element of the St. Imls population were absent from the oijty, for wolves do not eoent their, prey Quicker than do the roogns or city a fight of any kind in whioh bloody work is likely to be seen. Beside the St. Louis delegation, oholce specimens of blackguardism were present from the principal cities of the Unfon.end the steamer whioh took the "excursionists" on board, never before had suchaoongregatlonof the vilest element of American society" as on this Bpeoial oooasijn. THE FIOHT.

Tho ring pitched, the judges selected, and the armed crowd of roughs in pOBiHon. the contest began. Allen was the first 'to enter the ring, quickly followed by Modoole, whose seconds, Tom Kelly and Dnbun inoas, made some display in tying MoCoole's oolors to one of the stakes, Allen's seconds, Arthur Chambers and Patsey Shepherd, quickly produolng theirs. The nm oires were Dan Ryan, of St. Louis, for MoOoole, ana Dick Boaoh, of Chicago, for Allen, who, utter some delay, selected Jack Looney as referee.

On stripping for the fight, McCoole was rouna to do In good "condition," having reduced his weight form 260 pounds down to 198, Tom Alien entering the ring weighing 172 pounds, and in splendid trim for en durance. Standing ready for work, the isnguan man looked like a dwarf beside the Ameri oan giant. Size and weight, however, are nothing, in comparison to "soience" and pluok in prize ring encounters. that Is, when anything like fair play is allowed. The first round was a lively one, bnt two minutes being oooupled In the initial encounter, McCoole getting a doze of Allen's blows in his face, which made the giant look slok at the very outset.

During the second round Tom got In two fearf ul blows on McOoole's face, gashing his oheek In two places, one under the eye, partly closing that opno, MoOoole nirang wild in oonsequence. The third round saw MoCoole face his opponent with blood streaming from bis ace, his right eye olosing, and his strength flimimnning; nut he came up to his work pluckily, and managed to give Tom a fearful dig in the ribs, in return for which Tom got in again on tha damaged oheek, and also gave him a stinger in the mouth. As McCoole returned to bis corner from Uub round he presonted a horrible sight to ordinary eyes, but the orowd gloated In the bloody appearance of the giant, especially those who had bet against him. In the fourth round Allen again got in on that mashed face of his opponent, and Mouooie oountenance now looked like a piece of bloody beef, while hiB big hairy chest was streaming with blood, half dotted. In this round Tom knocked Mike down, and obtained the second "event" of the fight, first blood and first knock down.

It was now apparent that the little Englishman bad the fight in his own hands, but still at the oall of "time" the contestants again faced each other for the fifth round. In this Allen forced the fighting, and planted repeated blows on McCoolo's face, slashing right and left till it was a mere mass of bleeding and battered flesh. Finally he dropped to avoid a blow, and MoOoole endeavored to follow him, but Allen glided away. McOoole's inenas, seeing he was bound to lose the fight, tried to raise a disturbance, and an outside fight threatened to stop proceedings in the ring, but this time Allen's friends were as strong in numbers as those of MoOoole, and seeing that the fight would go against them, the bullies as usual caved in, and allowed the ring fight to goon. The last round was now oommenoed, Allen leading on wltn a terrino Diow on mlovooibb mouth, blood following it In a great stream.

The rest of the round was a repetition of the fifth, Mike's face reoeiving terrible punishment. Allen's body began to show Mike's pounding, but otherwise be was unnurt, while MoOoole presented a horrible appearance, ana seemed scarcely able to hold up his hands his left eye olosed, a terrible out under the eye, right side of upper lip also out off and nose broken. Before toeing the mark Allen said "It is a sin to send that man up to be punished. If you don't take him away I will dis figure him for life. He Is the gamest man I ever met." The crowd also yelled, "Take him away 1 Take him awsy The round was gone through with, but Allen refrained from punishing his opponent farmer, anatnus ended the fight between tho little Englishman and the "Western Giant." A RELIC.

At the foot of Thirty seventh street. South Brooklyn, stands a houBe that is probably one of the first, if not the first, built in that section or Long isiana. It is known to be upwards of 260 years old. The sides are built of irregular cobble stones, placed together in the same manner as a stone wall or fence the ends are sbingled. The interior wood work of the house is massive and all of hard wood.

The house is at present owned and occupied by Mr. McChesney. A few days ago he took up the flooring in the kitchen, probably the first time it had been moved Bince placed there when the house was built. On tho ground benos flftnr WM founa mumner. tne appearance of whfoh plainly that it bad been made and used at a time when machine made steel hammers were not so common as nowadays, It weiehs about four pounds, the bead having the ap pearance of a heavy blacksmith's hammer, the other end having been roughly made into a claw.

The ham mer is evidently of home manufaolure, probably made for a present neoessity by Bome old Bnlokerbooxer settler of Breuukelen, as the City of Churches was then called. The handle is short and as thiok as an ax handle, made of hickory, the. side laid next the ground being eaten in small grooves by earth worms or other Insects. That it is a genuine relic or tne earnest setue ment of Long Island there can be no doubt. The only wonder is how any man oould have wielded it for the mere purpose of driving nails.

FOUND (JTJILTT AND. SENTENCED. Bridget O'Neil, an elderly woman, was found guilty, yesterday morning, in the Court of Sessions, of stealing $100 last July from Mrs. Nicholson, an inmate of the houBe 270 Jay Btreet, in whioh she nerseir naa apartments, and was sentenced to the Penitentiary for one year. Catherine Wynn was found guilty of having plokea the pocket of Mrs.

Elizabeth Berry, on tne Fulton ferry boat, in July last. Judge Moore observing a number of the "Oherry street gang" in Court when she waa oalled up for sentence, remarked to her that he thought she must, from that olroumstance, be a professional thief 'and a member of that gang; He should not sentenoe her now. but would remsnd her for a day or two, and if he discovered that his suspicions were correct he should ipunish her severely. Catherine wept and denied an 'association with the "Cherry street gang." Joseph Zimmerman was found guilty of an aBBauit and battery upon Henry Liphard. He waa remanded 'for sentence, and to day wasMentenoed to pay a fine of $15 or stand committed for three months.

James Kenney, who pleaded guilty to grand larceny, was sentenced to the Penitentiary years. Ludw)g Gross and Catherine Gross were placed on trial upon the oharge of arson. The jury rendered a verdiot of not guilty without leaving their seata. DARING HORSE THIEVES. How a Fast ITlu.ro a Carried off Xalton to Bfetr Cr'roiii Cravesend and.

Jersey. A valuable trotting mare known by the name of the Maid of Orange, the owner of whioh is Mr. jHenry Bartlett, of Bedford avenue, Monday week wxen zrum unuor tne veop nuae ui ius uyBfaioL, uj the Joint connivance of three men, who ars evidently practiced horse thieves. The theft was effected in a Bimpleifnot novel manner, and in this wise. This, trotter has been in training for some time, at the stable bf Dr.

W. H. Hanford, at Gravesend, whither the daring operators proceeded, in a buggy attached to a lively stepper. While two went upon the premises, ostensibly to have a look at the their confederate remained outside seated in the buggy awaiting developments. It was no small prize they were alter, the mare having made her mile of late in 2.35, untrained, and being valued at $3,000.

One of the pair who had gone inside the premises, gained the attention or tne nosuer, and nis mate meanwmie was engages in walking the mare back and forth, and managed to get nearer the gate on each turn. In this way he gained the desired opportunity to slip out unperoeived, and in a few seconds took a Beat in the buggy, which was driven ofi at a (lashing gait, with the mare behind led by halter. Of a sudden the hostler discovered the absence of the mare, yet failed to realize it possible his visitor had gone off with the animal. His surprise may be conjectured when, on reaohing the outside of the enclosure he discerned the maro rapidly diaap peering in the distance, and unmistakeably ia leading. Under the clroumstanoes nothing could well be done beyond following np the thieves and notifying the police of the robbery, but nothing waa accomplished towards the recovery of the mare until Thursday of last week.

The thieves and their booty had made good their escape for the time being and, as has since appeared, went Btralght to Mew Jersey, A trainer who had notioed the mare on the Prospeat Park Fair Grounds, saw the animal at Monmouth Park, of whioh fact he apprked Dr. Hanford, and on this clue the latter at onoe proceeded thither accompanied by Court Officer Brown and Mr. Z. Toorhies. Arrived at the Park, they found the mare had been taken away, and thence the searching party departed for Eatontown' whither they were told it had probably been taken.

Suoh being the case, a Justine of the peaoe was brought out and asked to issue a search warrant, bnt this that official declined doing, for the reason that, as he held, the animal should be replevined before legal possession oould be obtained. Next the County Judge was called upon, by whose advice another Judioial functionary was consulted, and upon his warrant Brown was authorized to take the mare wherever found. The stolen "Maid of Orange" was ultimately found in the stable of Wheeler ot Eatontown, taken possession of, and on Saturday afternoon was. brought to this' city and delivered to the owner after a tedious and vexatious course of prboedure. As to the parties to this barefaced robbery neither of the three men are to bo found nor is it known whither thy have departed since the mare was lef at Wheeler's stable.

PEOPLE'S flAS COMPANY. To tho Edife the Brooklyn Eoyle The gas furnished by the People's Gas Sompany, ot late is an outrage on consumers', In ia nnishborhood of Bedford avenue we are often obliged lo burn candles, 4 evenings ago. (Satnr qay) tne stores myruo avenue auvve uio were all under tile neoSBBitv of dolus so, and for the last two months every private dweUingTiM had only an apology: for a The bins come in as' usual; the Company tn uiil innealnd to. and no i satisfaction is Riven. Can not yousto upMr, Husted, who wear 'tie of of of of Impeadajmem of mayo, Bevoise and Others far Allege dFr and iu Of The investisaiion into, the' allotted frauds in Board of Wator Works in" Long Island City, was abruptly terminated Mondry night by the Impeachment Mayor De Bevoise, Mr.

Koran and Judge Foarse. This action was a perfect surprise to the moat of the Demons Interested, as it was aunnoied that the investi gation was not completed, and the accused had a lute of defense which they fondly hoped would quash all proceedings when folly developed. Bnt they were informed last night that the defense would have to be brought out in the courts if at all, the Committee being tired listening to testimony. After the usual preliminaries to business, the meeting was resolved into Executive Committee. As the Board was acting in the capacity of a oommlttee In making the investigation, this made the assembly an Exeontlve Committee ot an Investigating Oommlttos ol the Board Aldermen, The attendance was very full, there being only one the oity fathers absent.

Only two members of the Water Board were there, on aooount of the belief that the meeting would be again adjourned. The Mayor and Mr. Moran, with Judge Cobert, the Mayor's counsel, waited patiently for the adjournment, until about eleven o'clock. Through some mysterioas agency it then became known that the Committee had passed resolutions of Impeachment. Judge Cobert, greatly surprised, sent word to the Aldermen that he.desired to be heard on behalf of the Mayor, before such action should be fully decided on.

He was admitted, and a spirited battle ensued, between him and Mr. Ltddy, the legal adviser of the Investigating Oommlttee. Judge Oobert said that impeachment, under such circumstances, would be a shameful wrong to the May or, that he had a number of new witnesses to call, and that he desired to recall several of those already exam ined, for the. purpose of croea examination. He de nounced the proceedings as being of a star chamber character, and aooused the Board of a breach of faith, in not fulfilling the promise they bad made through Mr.

Liddy, to allow him to conclude his line of de fense. Mr. Llddy retorted that he had made no promises that he had not fulfilled, and said that Judge Cobert bad told him that he did not desire to call or recall any more witnesses. This Judge Oobert denied explicitly. At length a motion was made by one of the Commit tee to reconsider the resolution.

The mover said that he made the motion simply as a test question. It was seconded, but before discussion had fairly begun the previous question was called. This proved to be a mo tion to adjourn, whioh was made Just before the door was thrown open. It was carried, and the Committee adjourned to meet last evening at 7 o'clock. The Aldermen met In special session yesterday after noon, and after adopting the report of the Committee of the Whole, passed separate resolutions impeaching the offloers above named.

Thirteen of the fifteen Aldermen were present, and the vote on each resolution was unanimous. The Law Committee were Instructed to draw up and present, for the consideration of the Board, the necessary charges and specifications. The oases of the Mayor and Ctommisaloner of Public Works, as provided by the city charter, will come be fore the Court of Oyer and Terminer, whioh will meet at North Hempstead in October. The trial of Judge Pearse will be by the State Senate, and the Oounoil in atrncted the. Oity Clerk to forward a copy of the charges and evidence to the Governor, with the request that he would recommend the Senate to take the neces sary steps to secure the Judge's removal.

The impeached officials are each and severally accused of corrupt oonduct, and the violation of their official oaths. The offloials impeached comprise three of the five Commissioners having the construction of the water works in oharge, and the aotlon of the Aldermen will undoubtedly indefinitely postpone the introduction of water into Long Island City. They are ail suspended from office, and Geo. H. Hunter, President of the Common Council, will bo Acting Mayor during the impeach ment proceedings.

The unexpected action of the Council excites Univer sal surprise. The general impression prevails that the proposed charges can never be sustained, A prominent member of the Committee of Fifteen was present dur ing yesterday's proceedings, and earnestly requested several Aldermen to postpone final action for one week, that there might be more deliberation, but his request was unheeded. During the taking of the vote on the impeaohment resolutions, Commissioner Moran was present, bnt tha Mayor and City Judge were under stood to be absent from the oity. THE SHORE LINE. Life on tho Ocean Wave Above and Below necks Tne Shady side of Sailor's Iilfe In Port and on the Cruise.

The landsmen passing along the shore and among the docks sees the shipping lying at anchor or moored fast to the piers, and notes the trim and tidy appearance of the spar and rope and pulley block in place, the deeks neat and clean, the sides perhaps newly painted, the trim outlines of the craft, built to "walk the waters like a thing of life," and he thinks that upon the whole, a saUor's life must be rather a pleasant one. Piled upon the docks or stored in the adjacent warehouses, are the produota of every dime and nation. The spicy scents of ooffee, oloves Bnd cinnamon, call up viBions of far off lands, bf Cathay and of farthest India, while the tieroes of sugar, the caseB of tropital fruits, seem to speak of isles beneath, the meridian, oradled on placid Summer seas, rich with Bweets, and landscapes flushed with the warm radiance of the troplo sun. The very air seems burdened with the breath of travel he hears men speak of lands and Tiianf a thousand miles awav. with as muoh indlffor ence as tnougn they were in the next block.

Distance finds a real enchantment, and he probably goes off whistling "A Life On the Ooeah" Wave" if he knows the tune and wishing that he oould go down to the 'sea in ships and do business in great waters." The sailor is surely an honest fellow, In bell bottomed trousers, and a straw hat with a blue ribbon around it, i while the Captain, to his mind'B eye, is a hale and hear ty individual, dressed in blue, and forever standing on tne quarter aecK wun a six xoot spy giass ma eye, and hailing Bhip, ahoy I The romance of sea tales, Peter Simple and Eaey," still llngere in his brain, and a "Jolly tar," full of independence I and olug tobacco, is his ideal. Never was there a more MISTAKEN IDEAL. Let him go aboard one of those vessels, go down into the cabin and talk with some intelligent skipper about seafaring matters, and he will find out his mistake. He will learn that the negro upon Southern plantations in antebellum times was not more of a slave than poor Jack is to day. There is no occupation under the tun, that requires more hard work, and is more replete with danger, than a seafaring Ufe.

The cruel, howling sea is treacherous to the last degre3. Wind and tide too often work their will with the staunoh vessel, Wreck and disaster Is almost a rule, while the hard 'practicability of modern times has stripped the sail or's life of whatever glamour and romance may have once clung about it. But eurely the sailor has an easy time In port and winds are not always adverse," you will say. Not a bit of port or sailing with is al ways work and hard work to do, and if not upon a ves sel the poor sailor is generally in the hands of sharpers who keep sailor boarding bouses, and he can scarcely call bis bouI is own. At sea he is utterly at the meroy of the commanding officers, who can knock him down or put him in irons, at the slightest symptons of Insubordination.

He may complain in the courts of Justice, but sharp lawyers stave off the trial until the sailor is again shipped upon another voyage, and when the case comes to trial it goes by default. Jack oannot lie idle, and like most ignorant men, he has a wholesome aversion of anything that sounds of legal technicalities. He Is shipped by the boarding bouse keeper, who receives the advance of a month's wages, and turns over to the sailor only so much as pleases him, and brings in a heavy bill for the balance generally bringing him in debt. When the sailor returns to port be 1b still in debt to the boarding house keeper, and must perforoe go baok to the same den. The runners board the vessel when it comes into port, lavish drinks and olgars, and Jack follows them like a lamb led to the slaughter.

AN INCIDENT illustrating the fear whioh the Bailors have of the power of the boarding house keepers came to the knowledge of the writer yesterday. Its oorreotness Is vouohed for by the captain of the vessel mentioned. A' brig which came into port a few days ago, and is now lying at Woodruff Bobinson's Stores, was boarded by tho runners of the boarding houses. All the men except two went ashore with them. Well, boys," said the runner to two who remained behind, Aint you going ashore 1" they groaned out, and thought they would rather Btay in theBnip.

The miners saw at onco an attempt to escape from their tyranny, and were accordingly angry. i "Won't go ashore, eh 1 Now look here, you hounds, If you do come ashore well thrash 1 out of you." "And," saya the oaptain of the brig to the writer, "those men dare net go ashore. They do not know how Boon or at what moment they may be pounced upon by the roughs and runners, and a severo bruising would be the reBult. They win stay on tne vessel continued the captain, and work for their bread, and when we go to sea again I shall take them in the brew again. Instead of paying their money over to the boarding house keepers they will receive then advance bf twenty five dollars themselves, and when they return from the cruise and receive the balance of ihek wanes, they will be better off than sailors generally are at the end of a voyage.

But they dare not, for their lives, go ashore." The sailor tamely submits to these tyrannies, because be is generally ignorant, and knows no way to escape from them. In spite the efforts of the law, the board inghouse harpies have a strong hold upon him. SATLOBg' PETS. Sailors generally have a strong passion for pets, and when in latitudes where strange and ourlous ani mals are found, they almost always manage to ship some sort of live stock aboard. Monkeys are 'great favorites with them.

Occasionally the captains Indulge in a little speculation In that line on their own aooount. There la a vessel now lying at Harbeokto stores, whioh has a handsome leopard, about eight inonths old, on board. The captain brought the animal on to sell to some museum pr menagerie. During the voyage the leopard has eaten eight or nine goats, whioh were taken on board for bis espeoial use. He is about the size of a large dog, and is valued at $100.

A mon key and several dogs of various breeds were alro seen onboard. MARRIED IS COURT. Carl Dix, a ooaohman, was before Justice Walsh on a charge, of seducing Eliza MOKlnley.

The Judge turned to Eliza and she blushlngly oonsented to Be made a bride forthwith.

To be interviewed by a Herald correspond ent and referred to in that paper as a "vener able link" is a supplemental honor which, it will be presumed, ex President Fillmore could hardly have anticipated.

The oharge of "wholesale in fanticide," as one paper puts it, made yester day at the Yorkville Police Court against Mrs. Ellen Roberts, of East Thirty eighth street, New York, is sustained by the evi dence of four or five persons. One swears that from January to July thirty different babies passed throuch this woman's hands and out of existence. One says that infants were exposed to the weather, starved, and otherwise cruelly treated. There was a shocking statement to the effect that an un dertaker, has "irrregularly disposed" of the dead infants.

Another is that some of the wretched waifs were entrusted to this female fiend by the Commissioners of Charities and Correction. Mrs. Roberts denies these accu sations, but it is hoped that they will be thoroughly investigated, and if even as muoh as half true the woman should be subjeoted to a punishment that will warn others to abandon a traffio no better than deliberate murder.

Mr. 3. T. Headley, the biographer, opposes the appropriation of the Adirondack region for a State Park. He denies that the streams are diminished by the removal of the woods, he thinks that country no temptation to settlers, and he advances other view' which essentially differ from some already presented.

There Is vast mineral wealth, (Iron ore), there, which be thinks should be developed. To make a park of it as contemplated, he says the mines would have to be olosed, the furnaces shut up, and the railroad franchise bought off. The theory that it Is necessary to make a park of it to prevent the woods from destruction, Mr. Headley thinks, is very erroneous, except as to the land grant to the Adirondaok Baflroad, which is a belt two. miles wide, Mrs.

The next joke will be to see the Internationalists denouncing Bradlaugh as a "fraud." Actions Speak Vide Judge Neilson.

Sir Richard Steele, in one of his most pleas ant contributions to the Spectator, speaking of gallantry, informs his young readers of the male sex that it is their duty, if not to make ove, at least to aot in a loving style toward all women, and especially young ones. No "gentleman," he adds, "can properly afford to be less than tender to the daughters or Eve they are charmed by the cheap homage, and we are injured not by the rendering." When this advice was given, however, prom ises had to be directly and unambiguously made in order to be binding, and a man was in no great danger of being placed legally in pecuniary peril for doffing his beaver to a milliner or handing a cook out of a stage coach. Matters sinoe then have ohanged, and changed so materially, that a foot note, we think, should be added to the next edition of the Spectator, apprising the student that circumstances alter cases, and that they have altered this case considerably. A striking illustration of the new condition of affairs is afforded by the settlement of the suit of Homan against Earle, an account of which was published in last night Eaolb. Roxcellana Homan, dressmaker, etc, sued Alexander Earle, merohant, of this city, for breach of promise of marriage, claim ing by way of partial compensation the trifling sum of $30,000 in greenbacks, When the case oama to trial the heartbroken plaintiff was fain to confess that there had been no promise in terms to marry, but that the behavior of the de fendant was of a kind to awaken the belief in her mind that he meant to lead her to the altar.

He had deceived her not by what he said but by what he did. Mr. Earle plead that he had done nothing to mislead, that he never intended to marry Roxcellana, and never gave her by any word to understand that he did so intend. His lawyers followed this up with an argument drawn to show that since there naa Deen no aotuai prom ise there could be no actual breaoh, and consequently no actual damage. Judge Neil son, however, did not favor the logic of the defense.

In the course of his charge, both able and ingenious, he told the jury that it was not necessary that a promise should have been made in terms; that the promise could be inferred from the intercourse of the par ties. Upon this charge the jury gave Roxcel lana a verdict for $15,000 damages. Mr. Earle, by the advice of his lawyers, ap Dealed. exoeption beino taken by his lawyers to the judge's inferential proposition This was months ago, and until yesterday the defendant and the plaintiff were in a condi tion of mental suspense.

There is suspense no longer, however, for the Court of Appeals has affirmed the holding of Judge Neilson, The point at issue was both novel and inter esting. But its immediate legal bearing is the least significant of its characteristics. It must produce something akin to a revolution amorous etiquette. Young gentlemen, and for that matter mature beaux, who have for years past carried sentimental desolation by their bewitching looks and meltmg attentions into the homes of Brooklyn and the State in gener al will have to reconstruct their habits. Pick wioKs chops and tomato sauce were harmless productions even in the hands of a Bvzfuz compared with the danger ous possibilities now attached to oyster stews and ice cream.

What may not be in ferred from a late supper, a carriage ride or a visit to the theatres. These things are all freighted with a matrimonial significance which not even the blindest can overlook. Is it not customary for oouples about to join their fates to eat together, to ride together and to find mutual consola tion by the nightly vindications of true love exhibited on the stage Has not this been the custom time out of the mind Undoubt edly it has, and the inference therefore is not only natural but irresistible when attention iB shown in these respects that marriage is meant. Why should a man go to the expense necessitated by these things if love be not the inspiring motive. Echo answers wny.

ui course it may do urgea that there are women who will eat and ride and visit theatres with any passable looking fellew prepared to pay the bill but women of that stamp are undoubtedly exceptions, and, as everybody knows, laws can't be made to meet exceptions. Let those, therefore, who would avoid the fate of Earle, avoid also wanton indulgence in the deceptive pleasures here enumerated. This ruling may in one aspect be considered a clear gain for the fair sex, but a large and liberal view, we think, will show that they must greatly lose by it. Think of the havoc it must work among the thousand pleasures from Sunday sohool flirtations to family visitations. The brotherly olasp of the hand, the more than brotherly glance of the eye and well, no matter these things will have to be forgotten.

Men who would not be inf erentially drawn into bondage. The term bondage is here used in a metaphorical sense. The freedom of married life is keenly appreciated by the Eagle. What will become of the nightly strolls, the semi weekly billings and cooings in cozy parlors until for on in the night There is nothing of an ardent kind that might not be inferred from them. Their danger is apparent.

They must be abandoned. Unless we greatly mistake Judge Neilson in expressing what was a sound legal opinion has dealt gallantry a fearful blow. The fine old spirit eulogized by Steel is on its death bed and must die of inference. A Farce Out of Time. The vigorous and resolute action taken by the proper local officials in bringing to punishment those who are assumed to be con cerned in the attempt to despoil the City1 Treasury, has thrown the reformers of the Fifty in the shade for the time being.

This body now makes a bold move to get again in 1 to public notice. While the District Attorney has his hands full, in bringing offioial offenders to justice, the Fifty announce that they intend to prooeed with their oharges against the Distriot Attorney. The public are in no mind for this farce at this time. The oharges 'against Mr. Britton, had their origin in a personal controversy between lawyers.

Their investigation was expected to annoy Mr. Britton, and it is possible they have measure ably subserved that purpose. But if Mr. Britton is to be called upon now to suspend his aotlon in the prosecution of offioial peculators, in order to vindicate his own conduet, in the or ninary performance of his duties, the aotors in the farce ef this proseoution will leave themselves open to the suspicion that they! are very much more interested in ventilating their own grievances than they are in the promotion of the political reform, whioh seems as little more, in their view of the situation, than as tail to the kite of the irrepres sible and loquacious Fifty. i It is greatly to be regretted that the New York Board of Health didnot make a thorough reform when it cleared away the booths at Fulton Market.

The viotqry was only half won. The plaoe is now only less unsightly and less unwholesome than before. The pungent and disagreeable odors remain and suggest most unmistakeably that disinfectants have not half done their work sinoe the great day of demolition. What are the terms of this truce? There has been a great gain, for which Brooklyn people are thankful but while realizing that the' half is better than no loaf, there seems no reason why we should Aot have whole. Why not tone down some of the more offensive features, of this still obnoxious rookery As an example in point, what a pretty speotaole is that tele I have been forced to normal level, and, as a consequence, commerce has been benefitted by the abatement of their feverish competition.

But everything in the future depends on the uninterrupted flow of ourrenoyto the regions of produoe. If we madly insist upon draining our banks of our deposits, we lose not only the usufruct of those deposits, but we also condemn the crops to uttejt losk The West depends largely upon us for power to move her grain into the markets of the world, and we, in turn, lobk to the West for abundant compensation for our aid. If we are selfish and show none of that confidence which is the sheet anchor of trade during this present gale, we not only wreck ourselves but paralyze the resources of the whole country. Every man who en trusts a dollar to this national work is a bene faotor such times as these. Every coward who calls home a penny from circulation is a separate danger to the oommerce of the Uni ted States.

Patience and confidence are tne all in all of to day. The Republican Convention. Verv little interest, outside of political circles, is taken in the Republican Convention, which is to day in session at Utica. The as fiemblv urovokes the criticism that is largely made up of the officeholders of the dominant party. This is inevitably, and is hardly censurable.

The Republican party has been twelve or fifteen years in power. Its regular army of officeholders are expected to do the routine work of the campaign, and this year there is very little else than routine work to do. Officeholders naturally desire to represent their several localities in State Conventions, for they get their names in the papers, by being elected, and this goes to show the Adminis tration that it has made no mistake in select ing "influential men" for party servioe. There are times when it is neoessary to compel tne officeholders to remain in the background, in order to give place to others, but this year there is no pressure from outside for places the State Convention, and the regular employes will perform the regular party service of making nominations. Only second class State officials are to be nominated this year, but there is patronage enough dependent on their suooess to make the camnaicn of interest to politicians.

The Senators to be eleoted this Fall will partici pate in the selection of Mr. Conkling's successor. The chief interest will centra in the several Senatorial contests, and in order that the Senatorial candidates may not. be handi capped, it will be desirable to nominate an unexceptionable State ticket. The Republican officials, whose term of offioe is about to ex pire, have preformed the duties of their office with a sort of negative success.

There is more or less positive opposition to State En gineer Taylor, for his alleged complicity with the invulnerable canal ring," but it seems to be acceptedas certain that whioh ever side wins, or whichever faction of either side, the canal ring will not lose. Attorney General Bar low seems to have used up his reform capital, and he has made many personal enemies. His displacement by his party associates now seems probable. Secretary of. State, Sonbner, is understood not to be a candidate, and Treasurer Raines is in political disoredit for his serious offense of supporting Greeley last Fall.

The Republicans have an exoellent chance of healing the breaoh of a year ago, by condoning the offence of Mr. Raines, but they are not likely to take advantage of it. The Democrats do not seem to be disposed to hold out any terms to the Liberal Republicans, as a distinct organization, and, the regular Republicans think they are strong enough to discard them. So that Mr. Raines is likely to be treated as a deser.

ter, and to be punished as a warning to oth era. The Tribune has made an especial bid of its support in Raines' interest, but the Tribune has lost utterly its old prestige, and the Republicans have found its opposition harmless. In all probability its officious interference in the case of Mr. Raines has only served to make Senator Conkling's opposition more reso lute. Senator Conklings worst enemies have never denied that he is a bold and dash ing party leader, and they will not be surprised if he refuses to make terms even on tne eve or a campaign on whioh the prize of the Chief Justiceship is said to be staked.

The advocates of an appointed, as against an elective, judiciary cannot witness without mortification the fact that this appointment delayed until it can be ascertained if Senator Conkling can be spared from active political life to fill the highest judicial office in the land a position to which he lays claims, not because of distin guished service as an advocate or a jurist, but because of his zeal and success in the interest of his party. The Republicans hope to carry the State, not because the people are satisfied with the present condition of affairs, but because their opponents have not yet recovered from the re suit of failure in a Presidential contest which they risked so muoh for suocess, It is quite possible, however, that the de rangement in business affairs, growing oat of the inability and reluctance of the Adminis tration to restore the finances of the country to their normal condition, and of the revela tions of official delinquency at Washington, may impel the people to vote for a change in the administration of publio affairs, if for no better reason than that a change of some sort can do no harm. The Sheriff's Case. Sheriff Williams yesterday dismissed his jailor and accountant, Mr. Oonrady.

It is reported that the Sheriff asked, in the first place, for his resignation, but Conrady saw fit to refuse it, and went out of the office muttering threaths of "telling all he kpows." Now, let District Attorney Britton take Con rady in hand. He may or may not know any thing implicating others, but it is very dear that he has been engaged in the business of defrauding the County. The entire business of jail management must be changed. Outside of it, the emoluments of the Sheriff's office are probably inadequate compensation for the duties and responsibili ties of the office, but the emoluments of the office must not be governed hereafter by the elasticity of the conscience of a Sheriff, or a Sheriff's subordinate. For the support of the jail, the late Sheriff, Walter, drew sev enty two thousand dollars a year, and Con had fixed up hiB bills.

Williams, through Conrady, was drawing at the rate of but about fifty thousand dollars a year, and one third of his bill was bogus. The abuses in the jail are old abuses, and whether Williams or Conrady suffer for so much of the offense as consists in being caught, this leak in the County Treasury must be stopped. In Brooklyn the public business must hereafter rest on the hard pan of honest dealing, and if our big and little officials will at onoe accept this conclusion, they will save themselves a great deal of trouble. Convenient inattention to the doings of subordinates affords but a poor excuse for Mr. Williams, and it is not likely to accepted as any excuse at all for the late City Treasurer of Brooklyn.

Bradlaugh and the Internationalists. Before Mr. Bradlaugh's arrival in this coun try the Eagle ventured to hope that he would not fall into the hands of the blatherskites who claim to be the true exponents of labor reform in this country. An assault was made upon him yesterday by one of those inevitable committees, whioh are controlled by zealots who are never disturbed by apprehensions of impropriety, rudeness or the least indelicacy in their conduct. A Mr.

Madox, as the Chair. man or spokesman of a Committee of Eight who solemnly paraded into Mr. Bradlaugh's bedroom at the Fifth avenue Hotel the other night, proceeded to explain the object of their visit. They, he said, represented the International Woridngmen's Association, and they wished to know his views upon various phases of the labor question. Mr.

Madox undertook to make a speeoh but his associates were also full of utterances and Mr. Bradlaugh oon found himself overwhelmed with eight persistent interviewers at once. He was amazed, not to disgusted. A peculiar feature of this octagonal assault was the oft reourring assurance that they well understood his views and ent aspect of all social questions in England. He suggested that under suoh circumstances, this co operative interview was; hardly necessary, but the oateohism "proceeded and these gentlemen, some of whom were prominent a few months ago in a Sunday Communis tio procession, went away with WEDNESDAY EVENING.SEPTEMBER 24.

This paper baa the Largest Circulation of any Evening Paper Published in the United States, its value aa an Advertising Medium is therefore apparent The Panic Partially Renewed The Lesson of Henry Clews' Failure. The manifest decline of popular apprehen sion has not been arrested by the incidents of yesterday. There is no doubt, of course, that the failure of Henry Clews 4 Co. came like the lastrelnotant thunder clap of a pass ing storm, and revived for a moment specula tion, if not alarm. But that failure was no in dictation that popular confidence is again diminishing nor was it due to any development of the last twenty four hours.

No sudden run accelerated the disaster. It was a logioa1 consequence of the orginal disturbance of publio faith and that Mr. Clews did not sue oumb simultaneously with the other principal viotima of the panic, is due rather to the abundance of his resources and the substan tial aid afforded him by the Government. Hence, while it was an abrupt reminder that we are not altogether out of the wood, Air. Clews suspension is no evidence of fresh discredit on the part of the community.

In any other country the failure of the government bankers, as were Messrs. Jay Cooke Co. and Henry Clews would be regarded as pregnant with ominous meaning. Indeed, in any other country the government could scarcely aiford to allow the implication of its fiscal agents in such disaster. We are more indulgent to our employees, however, and it must be a singularly deranged imagination that would conneot the Government with the losses of its occasional servants.

It was to profit by that indulgence of popular sentiment, so characteristic of the country, that both Jay Cooke and Henry Clews conducted in parallel lines the legitimate and conservative business of the national treasury, and the wild cat enterprises which have prostrated them in bankruptcy. Of course, it is not creditable to the Government that its nnanoial attomies should be bankrupt from such a cause, nor does the course of either house in undertaking a double business of the largely aiverse oharacter in question deserve anything but reprobation. Still the Government derives no material injury from their failure, and the public will accept it as a wholesome lesson to their successors in the agency of the national exchequer. When Mr. Clews was selected to displace the eminent and conservative house of Baring Brothers, in the diplomatic branch of financial representation abroad, the Eaole questioned the policy of such an inappropriate reward for the great services of Mr.

Clews during the war. There is, of course, no doubt that both he and Jay Cooke came to the rescue of the national credit in a very bold and speedy manner. But it must be remembered that at tne time neither Mr. Clews nor Mr. Cooke had a penny to lose nor a reputation to forfeit, did they fail in launching the war bonds of the United States.

On the contrary, while failure had no terrors for them, success of a moderate degree would have amply indemnified them for any hazard they incurred. But their energy aud tact were triumphant, and surely they reaped an abundant reward in. the immense profits which accrued to both of them in the course of strict business. When, therefore, Ms. Clews and Mr.

Cooke were appointed, in place of the Barings, as our financial agents abroad, one of the diplomatic service and the other of the navy, wa doubted the prudence of the selection, not only because we believed that both firms had been abundantly rewarded for their confidence in the Government, but also because we saw in the speculative intentions and the want of ripe conservatism displayed by either firm, the germs of that recklessness, so inconsistent with the dignity they should Iibto ouuporiea, wnicn nas, me case or either firm, been punished by failure. Mr. Clews, too, has always been an active politician, and has strengthened his questionable hold on the affections of the Administration by his zeal as a Republican. Of course this fact increased the incongruity of his selection as the financial agent abroad of the United States, a position which for almost one hundred years had been independent of politics. And it iB due to this fact, perhaps, that Mr.

Clews, in spite of the almost extraordinary assistance of the Government, has come to grief. In these vexed days the partition between confidence and discredit is a mere film. The balance of the two conditions can be deranged by a Mr. Clews has always been a strenuous Be publican, but, in times of panic, partisan fidelity evaporates. It did not strengthen faith in Mr.

Clews among some of his creditors that ho and they were of the same political household. Perhaps with reason. But on the other hand if his numerous political adversaries were biased at all by political prejudice in this matter, the bias would not tend toward unbounded confidence in Mr. Clews, who has, therefore, learnt most property that the dual roles of politican and banker cannot always be played on the same stage and to the same audience with profit. Of course, we do not pretend to deny the likelihood of Mr.

Henry Clews'failure had he been less industrious in the Republican State Committee, but since he has deliberately chosen to impart a strict political complexion to his business, he must be prepared to accept only one sided faith and sympathy. On the 17th of April of the present year the Eaole called attention to a scheme of Mr. Clews, given to publicity in the English pa pers and indorsed by the Tribune. Mr. Clews was founding what he called "The Anglo American Mortgage Trust, an association with a capital of $5,000,000.

This was to be neither more nor less than a vast "pool," the money to be deposited with Clews, Habicht for the purchase of such railroad shares as should invite the investments thus entrusted to the "Anglo American Mortgage Trust Company," alias Clews, Ha biohti; Co. Mr. Claudius Habicht, the London partner of Mr. Clews, seems to have been the projector of this neat and skilful programme. Three members of Parliament and any number of good names were conspicuous in the list of directors, while the prospectus promised, in behalf of the Government of the Unitod States, whose Secretary of the Treasury Mr.

Clews was striving to. become, that within five years speoie payment would be resumed, and that interest on such railroad securities as they might purchase for the sub scribers to the "pool" would touch a mini mum of 8.38 per cent, in gold. Truly a pretty showing this, on the part of our European fiscal agents Jay Cooke fc Co. we find thrusting their worthless, not to say fraudulent, Northern Pacific bonds on the foreign bourses, promising over 7 per cent, in gold, and paying that interest out of the money they had previously borrowed of other dupes on such monstrous term9. And not to be beaten by its rival in the representation of the Government and of the Republican party, Henry Clews Co.

create their Anelo American Mortgage Trust" notion and offer, with the pretended official author ity of the United States, no less than 8 1 3 per cent, as a stimulus of further credul ity. The Barings, careful and conservative as they are, must have surmised a vast change in the complexion of our Gov ernment wnen tney saw their suooessors, clothed with the favor of that Government, repudiated as swindlers on the Exchanges of Europe. And tnefr surprise must have been gravely augmented when they heard, as they doubtless did, that the projector of the wildest of these schemes stood high with the Adminis tration as a candidate for the Secretaryship of the Treasury of the United States. Probably Mr. Clews is not so sanguine on that point now as he was a year ago.

So much for the historical inoidents involved in the brief tremor of popular confidence yesterday. The moral is easily preaohed. Everything depends on the patience and faith of the people. The banks will be enabled to continue their bold front only by the confidence of the pub lic That confidence is the need of the hour. The mercantile community, so far.

which nearly filled the edifloe. The lecturer was introduced Dy MX. is. a. neuueuy, President of the Union.

Burns wields over his countrymen to this day a mighty, empire of song. He (the speaker) did not claim for the Bethuses a place In the highest walks of Scottish literature. be long to tne tnira oiass, ana prousDiy ao not sunn ura. in that. Their poems did not become as familiar as household words, their prose works did not even pass secona eaiaon.

use reason iur mis, we ieoiuxr thought, was that Instead of expressing themselves in the language they thought, they expressed their thoughts in other but Scottish accents. They had to live themselves and support their parents on so small a pittance, that they could, not marry. They were too pruaeat uunx oi msrrjsge, iney were too noneet think of love that would not end in marriage. We all know there is a difference between poetry and verse as tnere is Detween a councerreit ana a genuine com. The lecturer then drew the line whioh divides the mere rhyming Bcribbler and the true poet.

He pronounced the Bethunes among the latter olass. That tney naa mo guioi poetry, ana coat it omyneeaea cultivation to be admired by all, he had no doubt. Mr. Macfadyen here read some selections from the Bethunes, portraying the humor and pathos of their poetry, in mucn or men writings, ne sua, tnere was a fine sympathy with nature. One passage says, "When I am in the town I believe in the devil, when I am in the country I believe in God." It is not so much as models as literary excellence, it Is the inspiring influence on the minds and morals of the yoi oung that gives the writings of the Beth ones claim to somlnence.

The grandmother of the Bethunes was nroi Annie mcuoweii, znown in literature as tne aeir taueht cottager." Their mother waa a uious woman. ever ready to extend the hand of Christian sympathy. wgmy isvorea in ine intellectual onaracter or men? mother, the Bethunes were singularly blessed in their father. He ruled as well as loved his children. Their lot was a hard one, living on the coareet fare and wearing the cheapest garments.

Alexander enjoyed little of the parish sohool education and John still less. Their reading consisted of a very small home library of Scottish works. Poverty oramped and repressed all their natural inclinations. All the untoward events of their early life did not however dampen their literary ardor, and they wrote despite of and in the face of the severest discouragements. They were lovely and pleasant in their lives an I in doath they were not aividea.

What lesson is there for us in these lives? xnese men had no visions of fame or wealth beyond their own earnest effort, 'iney conquered at tne point or tne Bword. From the time when they entered life 'till the time of their death the sword Was at their tnroat, ana all their energies were bent in holding it baok. Thev belonged to a fine full blooded raoe. which would rather stand than sit, rather walk than Ue, and on the whole ratner run wan want. Tnese tilings naa something to do with the Industry of their lives.

The highest enjoyment the brothers had was when the villagers learned that they were authors and set out in a body to purchase their book. The secret of their success waa their resolute will and their Bturdy independence. Their avowed principle in Bpendlng money was tain, "wnat a man nas no ueeu of Is dear at a penny." They would not if they could wear their clothing at the tailor's expense. If they did not run at least they staggered up the steep which tney resoivea to cumo. xne lesson is aare aare dare.

There is no wretch more unhappy than he who is always longing for the goal, but will not remove his slippers to reach it. Tne victory in the name or me is tor the man who never knows and never will know that he has been beaten. The wise and active conquer difficulties by during to attempt them. Don't stand on the sidewalk idling, young men, and say that everything Is going against you ana inat yon are out ox iuox. no such thing, everything thinks nothing about you.

There ia no such thing as luck. Success only depends on earnest, struggling effort. Who shall say that the Bethunes did not succeed? They were poor, yet were they not richer in thought, richer in aspirations, richer in all the things which make life higher and nobler than thousands who roll in opulenoe The lecturer olosed with the reoitation of Bobert Bnrns's poem "A Man's a Man for a' That," and as he retired was warmly applauded.

DISTRICT COURT. An Important Admiralty Decision by Judge Benedict. In the IT. S. Distriot Court the following decision has been rendered by Jndge Benedict Henri; D.

Brookman, et al vs. the Canal Boat Ann Ryan, her Taekle, etc. This is an aotlon to recover double wharfage which presents various queeUons as to the effect of the laws of the State of.New York upon the subject of wharfage and in reepeot to the Jurisdiction ox tne aamiraity to exuoroe a uemana uro tnai oi me llbellant. The general Question as to tne Jurisdiction of the aa miraity over demands for wharfage I have heretofore examined at length in the case of the Kate Tremaine. the admiralty junsaiction expressea in mat caso nas since received strong support from the action of the Court of Appeals of this State in the oase of Brookman vs uamMi.

143 oooi. ana i leei it to oe unnecesaarv to ssvmore upon the general subject. Some other questions are, however, raised by mis case which have not as yet oeen consiuerea. The libeiiant nas comtratea nis wnariege at two ocnts ton. according to the rat prescribed bv the statute of the State of New Vork passed May 6, 1810.

He bases Mr demand noon that act. and seeks a decree in this court for the double wharfage provided for in the last i Uiino of Section 1 or tne state statute referred to. To this demand it is oweotoa, nret. tnat me state of New York can by law fix the rates of wharfage pay able for tne use or wasrves in new xorK ana Brooklyn, tha vessel in aueetlon is not liable to nav at the rate fixed by the Aot of 1870 because she is an Erie Canal boat. The state or new lorn nae Dy various states trom time to tune reguiatea Tan BATES OF WHARFAGE oharaeable for the use of wharves in New York and Brnntlvn mul hv ihn Ant of 1A70 airftin fixed thftlr rates.

Thiaact, however, contains the following exoepUve clauBe "inat au canai Doats navigating tne oanais ox this state, ana vessels Known as norm mver oarges, Hhall oav the same rates as heretofore." The claimant insists that his vessel is within the above execution. But their evidence falls to sustain this position. It is true that the vessel proceeded against is a canal boat fit to navigate me oanais oi mis Btate, ana insi sne nas hwii at times engaged In that navigation, but It is con ceded that at the time she used the UbeUant's wharf she was not engaged in that navigation, but waa employed in making voyages about the harbor of New xorxana to rcew iiexeey. me exoepuun ui lavur ui canal boats navigating the canals of this State contained in the act of 1870, was to favor tha canal navigation of tha Mate bv keening down, in the nutter of wharfage. the expenses upon those canals.

The exoeption is therefore limited in terms to canal boats engaged in the employment of navigating the canals of tola State. The here DrocBcded against was not bo emtdoved. and consequently is not endued to the benefit of the excep tion. It is next oontended that the statute of the State re lied on is unconstitutional because it in effect is A TAX UPON TONNAQB. Bnt charges for wharfage are not duties.

But tne olroumstanoe tnat me rate is reguiatea Dy law does not change the character of the charge, nor bring it within tne denomination oi a tax upon tonnage. Again, it is contended that the etatute in question is repugnant to the of the Constitution which Ae Ciares mat uougreoB auaii iiyo ruwejr leguiaie iwui" merce with foreign countries and among the several Btates. It may be that a statute regulating the rates of wharf owing to me intimate and necessary connection of the subject matter with navigation, is a regulation of i AhAMntaw nt Aiu.nrtl CUuUlUUWi Jiu uiD uumuca u. wu duujuu. unw uua appear to be such as to require it to be considered to be V1UU11 U1D UUUUtn ivguiauia juiunuuuuuu.

uid tlonal Government On the contrary, owing to the differing necessities of the Furious Dorte. the varying extent of the demand for wharves according to locality, ana me aDsenae ot any uniform rate of cost or value of suoh property, it seems manifest that legislation of this character stands upon the same footing with the pilot laws and State laws of that charaoter, when not in oonfliot with any law of the United States, are upheld by reason of the charac ter of tne subject, (uooioy vs. uoara oi waraens, ia H. 314: approved in Orandal vs. Nevada, 6, Wal.

SB; Rarison vs. Lott. 8. Wal. 163.) In the abeenoe.

then, of any law of the United States uson the subject of wharfage, the statutes of the State regulating the rate of wharfage must be held to be not Invalid as regulations oi commerce. It IB runner contenaea me statute in question provides AN UNJUST DIBOBIHINATION in favor of canal boats owned by the citizens of the Btate, and, for that reason, repugnant; to the Conatilu Hnn nf the TTnitod States.

The remaining 1 Question to be considered arises out of the last clause or me nrst section oi me statute un flnr cnnaiaeratlon wmcn nroviaes "inat any vessel tnat shall leave a pier, wharf, bulkhead, slip or' basin, with out first paying me wnanage or aoeaagB uub tuereeuj alter oeuig ueniauuou uj vo wnuwi wuwguco i o. son in charge of the vessel shall be liable to pay double the ratee esiaDusnea oy tuie nut, i in the nrcsent case the Ubeiiant has proved a demand of single wharfage and a departure from the wharf without paymeut. no mereupua ouuiub to recover THE DOUBLE WBABFAOB PEBBCMBED riv tne Btatute. i To this demana it obieatea tnat ai tnougn wnariagi be a maritime demand cognizable in the admiralty, the Charge imposed by the statute in case of a departure Wltnout payment ox woanage is aunptya penalty im posea Dy a state iaw ana not witnm tne aamiraity jurisdiction of the United States. Bat I cannot so consider it.

The real effect of the statute is simply to oharge vessels rising the wharves of New York and Brooklyn with a liability for wharfage at certain fixed rates. If the wharfage be paid at one time, it is to be calculated at one rate if paid at an other time, at another rate. Whenever paid, it is wharfage to ba collected by the wharfinger for the ate nf hta wh.r ThA nhlftntnf flYfno the two rates IS tO toake It greatly for the Interest of the vessel to pay her wnariage oeiorv sue leaves, eu uiat tue nmninigw seldom be driven to his aotlon a resort whioh win prove futile in many cases, because of the departure ot So vessel, and in oases be barren of reaul because Of the smallnera of this elass of demands. But wnen nlt. tha demand la still wharfage, and re coverable a.

In Brookman vs. Mamui, ta wharf age was adjuatoaiea ny me age, and so statea to do. nut cue uuuum were wharfage only tero wharfage only in name, and in aubstance, i aTATTlTOBX OHAB8E he vessel in oertaln event, for TCwUrnngXit would still be recover the benefltof ot tae Pr E.nfnroe a demand does not depend upon the ffinredentand outnpon its nature, Its maritime frrlvdftom its relation to navigation, chlrge allowed by the statute arises out of 1 a vessel in navigation; its amount upon to extent ot that useTand me object of loinsure payment for tnat use and thus to fkMntate navigation bythe construction of wharves. nl moreover dependent upon the right to single wharfage.

These features characterize the charge as 'maritime in oharacter. and if maritime In charaoter, "Tnnrt of admiralty Is bound to take cognizance of it. No valid objection to the Jurisdiction of the admiralty arises out of the mere fact that the right claimed is given by a State law, as has been expressly decided by Bio Supreme Court. In the oase of McNeil (13 343,) it was adjudged that a State law may give a substantial right of such a oharacter aa to plaoe it within the Jurisdiction of the admiralty. The onaracter of the demand in question appears dearly to be suoh as to require this court to take cognizance of It.

As to the question of lien the demand having been found to be in substance a demand for wharfage, the right to a lien follows, of course. According to weB settled principles and the rules of the maritime law there is no necessity therefore to oonaider the effect of the State law which makes the donble wharfage due ttom the vessel herself that ia to say, alien upon the vessel.

The White Stockings, on Monday, September 22, defeated the Athletics for the seventh time and won their thirtieth legal victory, as will be seen by the appended score. The game opened in favor of the Athletics by 2 to 0, and at the close of the fourth inning it stood at 2 to 1. In the fifth Inning the Philadelphjans, made two, scored by errors, the totals at the close standing at 6 to 3 in avor of MoBride'B nine. Then the Whites began to get the best of it, and in the last four innings they scored 11 to the Athletics 3. It seems impossible for the BlueB to defeat their opponents, and the chances are that the PhUadelphiana will score nine games of their series with the Athletics.

The Amateub Regatta. Great preparations are being nude for the forthcoming regatta to be held on the Schuylkill River October 7, and, as It is to be a national one, contests of extraordinary interest may be anticipated. There are tweuty twa entries in all, of which New York will send eight representatives, Philadelphia seven, Washington three, Pittsburg two, and Baltimore and Rochester each one representative. The races will consist of a four oared race for a challenge oup valued at $1,060, double sculls and pair oar Taoe for a vase valued at $300, and another raoe for single soulls. In addition to these challenge prizes tbe successful contestant in each raoe will be presented with solid gold presentation medals.

The races will be rowed over a course one mile and a half straight away, and will be rowed In heats when more than three enter for any one race.
