E. D. DIS, myisiy Reckless Use of a Dagger by a Drunken Husband and Wife. THEY ABE ABBESTED AND HELD FOB TBB GRAND JURY. One of the moat reckless and unprovoked attempts at murder which it has boon our duty to chronicle in a long time, came up this morning before Justice Dclmar.

Michael and Catherine Dally, hus band and wife, were accused of folonious assault on a man named Richard Hayes, by stabbing him in tho neck with a dagger. THE cmCrCMSTANCES of the affair, as related by Mrs. Hayce, the principal witness for the people, are briefly as follows Hayes, with Mb family, lives on the second floor of the tenement house No. S3 Butler street and the Dailys live on the floor above, while the first floor is occupied by a widow woman named Cross, who keeps a grocery and sells liquors on tho sly. The Dailys, husband and wife are both people of 'cry intemperato habits, and have been since their residence in the house quite a nuisance to all the other families.

On the morning of tho 17th Mrs. Daily had a quarrel with Mrs. Cross, who refused to give her liquor, and the result of the difficulty was a set to in regular feminine style, in which Mrs. Dally got considerably worsted. She swore to be revenged, and during the day somehow procured a small keen edged dagger, which she put in her pocket, to await an opportunity to use it.

Before she did so, however, she and her husband both got STAVING DBUNH, and at flvo o'clock in tho afternoon they wore both found rolling togethor on the back stoop of the house, and their drunken antics were curiously watched by a number of children, among whom waB a little girl of Mr. HayeB. Daily asked his wifo for some money to get more liquor. She said she had none, but told him to go to her packet and he would find some. Daily put his hadd In tho pocket of her dress and drew out the dagger.

The sight of THE WEAPON seemed to put murderous ideas iu his head, for brandishing it in his hand ho made a rush at the children, singling out tho Hayes girl and ran after her through the yard. Her screams brought her fathor to her assistance and seeing her imminent danger, with a blow of a club ho knocked Daily down and sent the dagger whirling through the air. Mrs. Daily Beeing where the dagger fell picked it up and with drunken cunning got behind HayeB and STABBED HIM on tho neck behind the ear, inflicting a sovore wound which but for tho accident of eighth of an inch would have caused instant death. As it was Hayes was laid up for two weeks.

Justice Delmar held both partios to await tho action of the Grand Jury. IN AND ABOUT THE CITY HALL. About the mayor's Duties Dc Witt, Ijowbcr, Bertreii The Coast Clear lloiv to Find Number. Now that the weather has moderated so that work is possible without the person so working be resolved into perspiration and the immemorial grease spot we read about, there appears in tho City nail hardly an official left. The Mayor, with a tenacity characteristic of his nation, Bturdily resists the weather as he does aldermanic encroachments, and will not leave his post.

As a general thing he never goes out of town especially is he at his post when de Bertlon seems to have become a contagion. True.there is Icbs to do, but the little is important. The routine of the office is considerable, and very few people really know the amount of that is really done by a mayor of a city like Brooklyn. In his magisterial functions, he has from time to time to adjudicate upon matters of difference between pawnbrokers and their patrons, to decide upon the merits of a dog assault and determine whether or not an offending animal shall li ve, to signjhis name tor every dollar of city expense, to affix his autograph to every bond in these days of bonds, to inspect all sorts of claims, to resist all sorts of pressure, to oblige and oftentimes disoblige friends, these arc some of the duties of a Mayor. Then, besides hiB duties as Mayor, Mr.

Kalbfleisch has a heavy pressure upon him as Police Commissioner. He is importuned to make removals, to further appoiutments, to secure promotions, and to look leniently upon offending members of the force. Next he appears as a Supervisor ex officio, but now that the Democrats have a majority he is not in as much demand as he was when lormerly Mayor. As Park Com miseioncr, too, Mr, Kalbfleisch Iuib his troubles and duties, so that altogether he presents the anomaly of AN OVERWORKED OFFICIAL. But he has a strong will, general good health, and seems to thrive upon a series of duties under which many men would droop and grow poor.

Stepping up stairs, Wm. C. DcWitt, is fouud: he has just relumed from a trip up the Hudson, and to Saratoga. He looks well, feels well, and relates the little hays and mishaps of ruralizing with an unction, peculiarly his own. He is talking to E.

J. Lowbcr, Water Commissioner, a gentleman well known iu our city. This gentleman, at present, enjoys the enviable distinction of possessing tho finest turnout at Long Branch. In this honor Brooklyn desires to share; it's no small thing for a private citizen to beat so horsey a President as we havo now a days. If Mr.

Lowber was only a little less sound in Democratic faith, tho great American receiver might out Tom Murphy for and in consideration of that turnout. A FItOZEN OFFICAL. The official of Brooklyn now acting tho role of Sir JobnEranklin isAlderman Jacob I. Bergen, from a letter which dropped from tho pocket of Keeper Tormey as he flew through the vestibule of the Hall this morning the following extracts, dated July 28, are made: "The weather up here (Profile House, Whito Mountains) has been so cold and unpleasant that we have beon obliged lo keep in the houso to day. Since leaving Brooklyn we have had beautiful and 'splendid' times.

The mountain seems to agree with my family; all aro growiug stout in habit. We have not experienced the hot weather which you have bad in Brooklyn. I have scarcely had to wipe the perspiration from my forehead since I left, so you Bee I am to be congratulated upon my escape. You cannot appreciate what a blessing it is to be relieved from the continual buzzing which 1 had to endure while at home 1 feel quilo like another man. About the 0th or 8th of August I shall be in Brooklyn for a short time.

Then for Saratoga. J. S. T. Stranahan, and bride, Wm.

W. Gocdrieu and wife, Dr. Talmage and wife, Mrs. Hunt, Daniel Williams, and a few other Brooklyn ites aro here." only (34,825 bouse numbers have thus far been given out by the Assessors. As there are but about houses in tho city, of courso many of tho numbore are for vacant lotB, upon which buildings are soon to bo built.

It is a pleasure to be ablo to truthfully state that the beach so recently loaded with putrid carcasses is now very nearly cleared. By to night all will be in proper order. Dr. Cochran and assistants should receive high praise for tho promptness displayed. A GOOD IDEA.

In view of the fact that tho houses of our city are being re numbered, the present Directory is of very little use. By leaving on the present number whore a party resides under the new notation, much trouble might bo saved To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: In view of the difficulty likely to occur from the new numbering of our city would it not be well for each citizen lo leave bis address at the house that is taken as his former number. For instance, I live at 535 Atlantic street (old No.) I am now occupying No. 546 (new No.) I leave my present Uddross at No. 535, and can be found as stated at 54(1.

This, Mr. Editor, will facilitate postal matters, and in my opinion obviate the need ol anew Directory. Very Respectfully. Jos. S.

Moeqan. PLYMOUTH CHURUIl PRAYER MEETING. Mr. Keectaer Congratulates his Church on ltn Harmony. The last Plymouth Church prayer meeting of the season was held last evening.

Mr. Boechor, in the courso of his address, said: This ia our last general meeting for tho Summer. It has been my oustom to make those last meetings seasons of review and testimony. In looking over years we have occasion for gratitude. Our particular branch of Zlou has been prospered.

I hope we leol that our Church is only oue finger of tho great hand by which God workB in the world. It has pleased God to prosper ns during the last year. The congregations on Sunday have not only been full, but tbe word of tho Lord has met with responses in the hearls of the bearers good has been done, I have reason to believe, in many ways; tho year as a preaching year has beon full of cheer; I look at this from a different standpoint from what you do; I like to study tbe relative bucccsb of the different ways of presenting truth. I am naturally combative; that disposition leads me to argument as tho mode of showing truth. I was brought up in a family who were perpetually discussing, and aJi through my college course I had no conception of proving religious truth except by argument, I long ago learned that the way to present truth wbb to addresB men's moral consciousness.

In this way time is saved, truth is epitomized. I have tried to tke my preaching pictorial and illustrative. I have taught by analogy. I have come to believe that, while the combative is not to be disowned, the trao source of power in preaching is the love element. From year to yar I grow stronger in tbe assurance that tho method of addressing the consciousness of men is tho divine method.

It is the method best adapted to men. Tho church has beon harmonious. Did you evor know such a case, orethren? This church has boeu established twentv three years, aDd do you remember a quarrel? There aro two thousaud aieuibord, and the history of our church has covered ono ot tho stormiest periods known to the country. Wo have many radicals here, and everybody has been free to talk or pray as they pleaaed. But we have never been divided.

Souie leoplomay Bay "Mr. Bcecher is well adapted to keep the church together." No doubt you follow me better than you would each other; but this is not the roason that I give for our harmonious condition. I ascrib i it to the trnth that has been presented to you. I have preached love, and the Church has answered to it. This Is a vast church, and if broken by disagreements would be billowy as the ocean.

I'or our personal kindness to me, I am very grateful. It ia all the more worthy of gratitude because I am.not, and cannot bo, pastor as well as preacher. Assbbsob Soanlan. The Assessor of the Third District acorns bound to have a belligerent time of it. Be has scarcely got through with his fight with his opponents of his own nationality, when a brother journalist of Mb own party sails into bim as vigorously as his own compatriots have done.

The E. D. Times, conduotca by the Chairman of the local Eepublican Committee, alleges that Scanlan uses his official in lluence to force advertising Into hie New news paper. It BayB: Michaol Scanlan, the Assessor of the Third District, who publishes a paper which ia not a dnanoial success, has hit upou the lollo wing method of helping his neglected enterprise. Advertisements are solicited from rectifiers, distillers, and othors fn the whisky basiuess, npon whom Uncle 8am'e servants have more or less hold, each party being assured that the aforesaid Michael is editor of the sheet.

As near as we oan learn, one hundred dollars Is the lowest sura that is taken of thiB kind of blaok mail, how long. Mr. Delano, do you intend to i inflict this i Btranne adventdier'tipon the worthy citizens of the Third Distrlot 7 Do vou realize that such oppressive taxaatberers as he are a load greater than the Bepublican party can bear, and that we shall be beaten out of sight If we don't rid ug uf guon An Old Man of Eighty four Years of Age Outrages u. Child of Six, One of the most horrible instances of human depravity which haa been brought to the notice of the criminal authorities in many years, came up for ad judication before Justice Dclmar to day. The crime wbb embodied in the tottering form of Ed ward Mo tahghllD, a hoary old reprobate over eighty four years of age, who was charged by a man named J.

Grace, with having outraged his sister, a little girl only six years oi age. Mr. Grace lives at U3 uougiass stroet, and the accused occupied a room in tho house with him as a tenant. A few days since, a little sister of air. Grace, sis years old, was seen coming out of the room of Mr.

McLaughlin. On her being questioned by her mother as to what she had been doing in there, the girl told a story which made her mother's blood almoBt freeze in her veins From her Btory it appeared that for Bome time past ibo hoary libertine had beon in the habit of inducing the child with candies, pennies, to come into his room, and there committed the moBt grosa outrages on her. The girl was brought before Justice told her story in a straightforward manner, but the details are, of course, unfit for publication. The prisoner was remanded for further examination. IRDISCOVEBEI) SICBDERS LY NEW TORE The Iribune, in commenting on the extraordinary feature of tho murder of Mr.

Nathan that ho was killed in bis own house, on ono of tho most frequented streets, in one of tho best neighborhoods in New Sork, alter a fierce struggle, and with three adults in the houBe, all of whom claim to havo heard no unusual noise even gives a list of other mysterious murders, in which tho assassins escaped, as follows It isastrango affair; but wo can remember many crimes i qually mysterious crimes whose porpotrators Dover have been discovered, and probably nnver will be. The Rogers murder still fresh in our recollection. In that case a man waB killed in bread daylight, in the open street, only a few steps from Broadway, and the assassin left traces by which it might be supposed there would be little difficulty in finding him. Yet he never was traced, and the crime will probably never be punished by man. Tlie Bnrdell murder is a case of the same sort.

There were six or seven persons in the house when that man was kilted, and after all these years tho mystery is still unsolved. About the close of the year 1866, a young girl was murdered under very strange oircumstances in New Orleans. She bore an excellont character, and so far as anybody could tell uevor had an enemy. It was evident from foolprints that the murderer was a woman she had climbed a high fence, en terad the house by a second story window, and beaten the girl to death with a flat iron. Members of the family slept in tbo next room, but hoird no noise, and the criminal never was discovered.

Five years ago two little children, brother and Bister, named Joyce, were murdered in the woods near Roxbtiry, Massacbussetfs. It has never been found out who killed them. Some years ago, young Mr. Embury ot Brooklyn, a gentleman well known and respected, was murdered at Fisbkill on his way to visit his betrothed. He was touud dead by the roadside with a bayonet wound in the back, and his watch and money on his porson.

He bad no enemies, so fares known; ho was a gentleman of irank and estimable character; and to this day his fate remains a mystery. These cases go to offset pretty effectually the old axiom that "murder cannot be hid." But there is no at all as much significance iu them as there is in the following statistics of New York tragedies, so mysterious that public curiosity was not even excited by a clue to them. Says the Tribune: If we chose to seurch our criminal records, or to go back further, we might easily multiply instances of the mysteries ofmurder. We happen to have before us at this moment ccrtuin police returns for the year 1800 later statiBtiCB might be obtained, but the story would be substantially the same. It appears that in New York City, duriug the year referred to, there were (exclusive of deaths by drowning and other means which might have been either accidents, stti cideB, or murders) no fewer than seventy one clear cases of homicide.

Only thirty three persons were arrested for these crimes, and tho records of the courts show only fifteen convictions. That is to say, of the perpetrators of unmistakable homicides more than fifty per cent, were uot arrested, and nearly eighty per cent, were not punished. These statistics will not by auy means be assuring to New YorkerB. The freedom iu Brooklyn from Buch dark deeds should serve to show New Yorkers that if they would avoid the criminal classes that infest all great commercial centres', that should move to Brooklyn.

The Trouble between the Si rami Street Newtown and metropolitan It. li. Companies. COURT SPEOrAL TKR31 JOTGE PnATr. The Grand Street cf: lVrnton li.

11. agt. John I'. Elwell and others. About tnreo weeks ago some trouble took place between the parties to this suit in regard to the right of way over Metropolitan avenue, between Busbwick avenue and the City line.

It appears that in 1863 the Metropolitan E. It. Co. organized, under articles of Association, allowing them to run from Canarsle to Maspeth, in Quceus County. In 1805 it is alleged Hint they undertook to build a road in the Eastern District trithuiit any jcual authority to do so, hut that tbey did build the mad through several streets until tbey got out at the fool of North Second street, and thou they made a mortgage to Mr.

William Pect and others for on that road. In lSlili they obtained a i barter authorizing them to build their road from the South Seventh street ferry to North Second street, and then they made a second mortgage to Charles M. Jiandall, of New York, I'or $70,0110 to enable tliam to extend their rout! from Nurlh Second street to the City Line. When the ilret mortgage was lore dosed, Elwell and others, defendants fn this suit became the purcha icrs, and then the mortgage given to iiand. ill and others was foreclosed, and the Grand street and Newtown Railroad Company became the purchasers.

The Grand street and Newtown Itailroad Company have a charter authorizing them to run cars out to the Lutheran Cemetery ut Middle Village, from Metropolitan avenue. After the sale, by the Referee, under the Peel mortgage, the purchasers applied for a writ of assistance to be put in possession of (hat part of the road, and iu the descriution tbey included three quar'crs of a mile of tho road, from the end of North Second strcef to tbe City Line, which was not included iu their mnrtguge. The Grand Street and Newtown Railroad Company thereupon applied to the Court for an order lo have that three quarters of a mile stricken out of the writ of assistance, as it was included in the portion of tho road they claimed to have purchased under tho Rand ill mortgage. They then unaertook to mako a connection with that portion of the road. In that, however, (hey wore interfered with by the defendonts, who obtained an injunction restraining plaintiffs irom making that connection.

Tho present motion was made for tno purpose of having that injunction dissolved, and at tho same timo deteudants have commenced a suit to restrain the Grand street and Newtown Railroad Company from using Metropolitan avenue. Both questious were argued this morning, Messrs John H. Bergen and Benjamin F. Tracy appearing for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Daniel Walden for defendants.

The Court tooK the papers and promised to render a decision in ten days, and in the meantime Gen. Slocura is appointed referee to assess the amount of damages to be paid to the parties in whose favor a deciFion shall shall be rendered. NEW YORK ITEMS. Action on the Death op Me. Nathan.

Several members made remarks touching the life and character of the deceased. The membetB will attend the funeral in a body. Almost Another Motidee. A case of attempted murder, strikingly similar to tnatof the Rogers tragedy, without its fatal termination, was developed at the Jefferson Market Police Court thiB morning, Joseph McCarty, residing at No.

039 Spring street, while stand ing on his own doorstep, about ten o'clock laBt evening, was approached by a young man, who, without a word, walked up to him and drove a knife up to the hilt into his shoulder. In the meantime, throwing his victim on the ground ho attempted to rifle his ickots. Mr McCarthy, although badly wounded, struggled desperately, and sueceeded in beating his assatlaut off, but not before be had received sovcral more cuts in the struggte. Finally, as the follow made a desperate lnuge, Mr. McCarthy gave him a severe kick iu the stomach, causing the knifo to fly out of his assailant's hand.

Mr. McCarthy in the meautimo possessed himself of the knife. The follow then i nn into a saloon near by and succeeded lu getting hold of a number of tumblers, which he fired at Mr. McCarthy with terrible precision, wounding him seven ly iu the face. The rtiillan again attempted to obttiiii possession of his possession of his pocket book and another struggle ensued.

Mr. McCarthy, weak as ho was, succeeded in getting the fellow undermost, when three or four ruffians of the eamc ilk ran into the saloon No. an Spring street, and set unon him and with their aid succeeded in wrestinu from him tho coveted pocket book. Oflicer Riker. of the Tweuty cighth Precinct, atlraoted by the wounded man's cries, capturod the prisoner alter a struggle.

Still Further Particulars. A SLIGHT CLUE MORE REWARDS FLAGS AT HALF MAST. THIS MOBNING a reporter of the Eagle visited Police Headquarters, and Coroner Rollins' Office in New York. At the former place nothing definite was to be learned. 8uperin.

tendent Jourdan said that be bad nothing further to communicate in the case, and the detectives attempted to look wise when they said tbey were "working the case up," as if to intimate that they had some import ant points which they would not disclose There are various theories as to the murder, but the one generally accepted as correct by the police, is that it was the work of a burglar. Defectives are already at work "pump ing" welt known thieves as to the whereabouts of certain members of their fraternity on Thursday night, A large number of pawn shops have been visited by the police, with a view to tracing the stolen watch and diamonds, but thus far without success. The police of New Vork, from the Superintendent down to the door moD, seem determined to leave no means untried to ferret out the murderer, if possible. THE HOUtJK. A crowd of persons were to be seen this morning in the neighborhood of (he house where the murder was committed, attracted thither out of curiosity.

Several policemen were stationed at and near the house to keep persons from oongrnga ting there, and they were kept quite busy. The interior of the house has been set in order, and iB now occupied by the widow and family of the murdered man. All marks of the tragedy have been obliterated, except those on the body, which oan never be effaced. THE excitement throughout tho city is very intense. The murder is the subject of talk everywhere, and the business of Wall street was aff octed by it.

It has caused a marked feeling of uneasiness, particularly among men of wealth, who fear that there is no such thing as safety from murdering thievos if a man can be killed iu his owa house, with two sons and other persons within call. and no one know of it until au hour or two afrerwards. A SLIGHT OLUE to the murderer is believed to have been found in the fact that the marks of blood on the pantaloons, waist coat oud shirt of the late Mr. Nathan, are marks of a man who has a small hand, and the fingers are well foHned, and only three fingers and a thumb are visible, which may be caused by the murderer having lost a finger. The same marks are visible on Hie safe, a safe drawer, and the bathroom.

Iu the latter are drippings of blood, and a towel used by the murderer has the appearance of having been used to staunch blood, and as a handkerchief the murdered man is missing, it is thought that the murderer was wounded in the struggle. MORE REWARDS. In addition to the reward of $10,000 offered by the Stock Exchange, Mayor Hall has iBBued the following proclamation Eewaids are hereby offered in relation to tbe murder of Mr. Bejamin Nathan, that occurred between the hours of midnight of the 28th of Julv and three o'clock of the 29th of July, at No. 12 West Tweuty tbird street, opposite the Filth Avenue Uotel.

Whoever committed it probably had his clothing blood stained, and took possession of three diamond studs iu plain gold sotting, with screw sockets, and also a stein winding Jurgenson gold watch, number 7.131, with gold link chain and seal, with monogram B. N. and he used as an irou weapon for the killing, what is known as a ship oarpenter's For any information, direct or indirect, however slight, which may eventually result in tho moBt material aid to an arrest of the murderer, the sum of $3,000 reward will be paid (0 the informer, and communications treated confidentially.

Washed White as Snow, ACADKMY SlIJDKB, BltOOKLYN, Jnly 30. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eaule: Injustice to Mr. Snow whose name appeared iu your columns last night in connection with a charge of fraud made by me, I desire to state that said charge as made under a misapprehension on my part as to the individual. Suo.v, known here iu musical circles, has always paid his bills in my house, and 1 have every reason to believe that thero was no intention on his part to defraud. Had I known all tho circumstances of the caBe, which, perhaps, it is not worth while to crond your columns with, 1 should not have made the charge; but being absent at tho time, 1 was led to believe ibat the transaction was with on entirely diflereut person.

Regretting that Mr. Snow's name has appearetl beloro your readers iu such an unenviable light, I remain Yours very truly, John J. Russell. It appears that the arrest above spoken of was made under a misapproheusiun of facts, and had not Mr Russell been mistaken as to the man, Mr. Snow would not have been arrestsd.

Anotheb Constant Reader The Dispute about the Ctdetship To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle In your issue of Wednesday everiing, a state ment was made by a correspondent calling himself "Fair l'lav," reianve to ine manner in wnich the appointment given by the Hon.

Jno. G. Sohumaker, to tl.o "Committeo on Frio Scholarship, of the Brooklyn uoara oi EiUucauun, was uiaae. We would beg leave to make known a few plain facts, through the medium of your paper, concerning this aisgraceiui anair: vyneu me aon. duo.

u. schu maker Have them the power to uominate a suit able candidate, a statement was made in the newspapers of Brooklyn and New York, that the appointment would be given tu the one who passed the best competitive examination before the Board. We made our applications to the becretary of the Board, ub directed in the advertisement, und we were received as candidates for the appointment. We called as directed, on laet l'ridiiy, but the meeting was adjourned because some of the members of the Committee were not. present.

They told us lo call again on Tuesday, at four o'clock. Whin wc called on Tuesduy we were informed that George H. Moore, son of E. B. Mooro, City Editor of i be New York Tribune, and also a member of the Board, was choBen without any examination, either mental or physical.

When we asked one of the Committee about it. ue very coolly informed us that ho bad selected him because he considered bimoelf entitled to do bo. We then aBked bim who bad givon him the power to give the appointment without au examination He said that ho did not want to be tauuht what to do by a lot of boys: he told us that be would nevor, serve on another Commitlt like this again, when ono of us said that if no would act on every one like ho did on thin, they xinM do without him, and bo none tho losers. iinrlna the course of our conversation with one of the Committee, he made the following remarkable observation: "If 1, on looking over the boys who presented themselves, (suppose we did have nu examination) sho uld select a boy that i considered the least qualified in every respect, I would consider myself justified in doing so." "But we remarked, "would Mr. Schumakor, or the people of Brooklyn, bo justified by your action? Was it Mr.

Schumaker's inteution, In glvlug them the power to make tbo appointment, tnat it should be givon to one whose only title to it consisted in his being the son of one of the members ot the. Board?" No, ho understood that the one who deserved it best should receive it, and not tho ono who had the most political influence or personal favor. One of ns asked a member of the Cotn miitceii he considered 1 ho boy entitled to it. Ho said be thought be did. said he, "here are two of us we will stand an examination right away, and if he is better than ub we are satisfied that he should receive the appointment.

He would not accept it he considered it too fair if he thought the boy worthy of it he would let him sinud the test. It Bhould be re menibercfl that the Hon. J. G. Schumaker's action throiighot.t the whole affair has beeu praiseworthy indeed, we return him our Bincere thanks for the honorable course which ho has pursued.

If he desired to give the apuoiutment as a personal favor lie emild do so, without having an examination at all. He preferred rathor to give it to the one who deserved it uioBt. It Bhould bo remembered tbatwedonot mako this statomont through jealousy or malice, but simply through a sense of right and justice, and also out of respect to the gentleman Who govo the appointment, and the peoplo of the District that he represents. He, placing tho utmost confidence in the committie aud thinking that they would do tight, did not go near thorn. Bufcthey basely botray ing the trust which he had placed in them, and also forioiting their honor as gentlemen, gave it indirect opposition lo bit wishes.

In doing this they uot only imposed on the boys who wore candidates, but also on Mr tscbumaker hiiuBelf. Let him investigate the matter aud have another examination at which himself will be present, so that fair play will be shown, and we will Bafely say that the boy chosen in such a manner will be a creoit to the fairness of John G. 8chumaker. By doing so be will oblige tho candidates. BnoOELTO.July 30, 18T0.

ThiB statement is incorrect, we aro assured, in at least ono particular. Young Moore was examined by one of tbe oldest principals employed by the Board as to his scholarship, and as to his physical fitness by Dr. Scbapps, one of tho Committee. Now, if the communication we publish is tbe joint production of the "candidates," they havo most assuredly little to complain of, for il is in overy way discreditable to the candidates and to tbe public schools ef the city which turn out such candidates.

JORILLARD'S YACHT CLUB Smoking, is the finest Bright Tobacco made. Being free from Nicotine, which is oxrraoted by a patent process, it does not injure weak constitutions. Persons ot sedentary occupations, as well as students and literary men, will find none of the injurious after effects, resulting from ordinary tobacco. It is much ligbterin weight than common tobacco, and a pound wiU last ttrioe as long as other kinds. It does not clog the pipe nor burn the tongue.

LORILLARD'S EUREKA Smoking, has become so popular, that many imitations of a worthless character are offered for sale by sonio dealers because they can buy a counterfeit article fora little less; and as tbe same are calculated to deceive the consumers, we desire to direct their attention to tho imposition that is practised upon them; as thoy aro the main losers thereby, being obliged to pay as muoh at retail for it as will buy tne genu ne article.

POLITICAL. The Radical Committee of thin State meet to call their Convention at Saratoga, on Thursday next, tbe 4th of August. This move indicates a very early opening of the political campaign. Saratoga in August is not a bad plaoe to meet at, and as the Radicals have do hope of success in the campaign, they have evidently made up their minds to extract all the enjoyment possible from it. The candidates for Governor seem to be as plenty as blackberries.

The truth is, none of the more prominent politicians want the nomination, and any little leader, who has a following of a half a dozen, is trotted out for the honor of being beaten. Tho TVf luiie namtB fifteen candidates who havo been "spoken oP' among them Gen. Stewart L. Woodford of this city. The Tribune names no candidate who will "run'' better, or who will take his defeat in better temper.

Fzmton. The Iribune, in a recent issue. called on Senator Fcnton to make public his reasons lor opposing Tom Murphy for the Collectorsliip of the Port of" New York, intimating that these reasons would aff ord a sufficient justification of Fenton. Today the Senator writes a letter to the nib me in which he declines to give his reasons, on the ground that prolongation or the controversy would not help the parly. Mr.

Fenton, however, gives a very lively 'fillip to the "controversy," towards the cIobc of his letter, liy saying As to the Collcctorehip, if change was deemed in dispensable, I was willing that any competent and holiest llepiiblican, whose record was ono of undo vi.tting fidelity, should be appointed, without reference to his past classification or associations in the party. A largo majority of my Republican colleagues in the House of Representatives will bear cheerful testimonv to my course in this respect. I hardly need say, I did not regard Mr. Murphy as coming up to this standard. If Mr.

Fenton "did not" regard Mr. Murphy as competent, honest and faithful ho certainly does not. Wo canuot see that Fenton has made his case any better with Murphy's friends. Bennett vebstjs Scanlan. Mr.

Bennett, Chairman of the Eepublican General Committee of this comity owdb a paper Mr. ScaDlan, Assessor of the Third District has also an organ. The gentlemen are at loggerheads. Scanlan accuses Bennett of obstinacy, stupidity and unfairness as a party manager. Bennett returns the blow by intimating that Scanlan is little better than a "black mailer." Says Mr.

Bennett in his paper: Scanlan in a New Role. There are various ways for corrupt or impecunioua ouice Beekers to raise tho wind. For instance, Michael Scanlan, the Assessor of the Third District, who publishes a pape which is not a financial success, has hit upon the following method ot helping bis neglected enterprise. Advertisements aro solicited from rectifiers, distillers, and others in the whitky business, upon whom Uncle Sam's servants have more or less hold, each party being assurred that the aforesaid Michael is editor of the sheet. As near as wo can learn, one hundred dollars is the lowest sum that is taken of this kind of blackmail.

How long. Mr. Delano, do you inteud to iuilict this strange adventurer upon tne worthy citizens of the Third District? Do you realize that such oppressive tax gatherers as he is a load greater than the Republican party can bear, and that we shall be beaten out of sight if we don't rid us of such burdens The party is pretty certain to be beaten out of sight if the voters believe one half of what the Ra dical politicians say of each other. Butler Again. We have intelligence to day from Washington that one Ames haa filled a bill in equity in; a case in which Ben.

Butler figures con spicuonsly. Ames is the inventor of what is known as the Ames' gun. Ho claimed that through a conspiracy his invention had not a fair trial, and he made certain charges againBt Gen. Dyer in thiB connection. Ames, in his affidavit, thus continues his story: A member of the Ordinance Committee, B.

F. Butler had become familiar with the circumstances and fasts in connection with the business of Ames, and shortly after the charge of conspiracy had been submitted to CongresB January 18th last respondent called at Gen. Butler's office for the purpose of consulting him, and was then and there informed by Whitney, the clerk of Gen. Butler, of a desire and diBpoBilion on he part of Dyer to make an amicable ar rangement through Butler with all persons making charges or complaintB against bim, and that for the sum of $5,000 he, Butler, would undertake to secure the withdrawal of all opposition by the said Dyer to the payment of the claim of respondent, Amos, under his contract, and he would procure, through Dyer, the receipt, experimental test, and sale of the three additional cannon steel cores, provided that respondent, Ames, would cause to be withdrawn from Conuress the charge ol conspiracy. He further states that, being much embarrassed by the non pavment of bis claim and to terminate the unjust resistance to the legitimate prosecution of his business, he signified his williug ucbs to accept such proposal, and Whitney made the memoranda set out in the original bill, inserting his own namo, and requiring a payment of $250 earnest money, promising that if the arrangement was not carried out and accomplished iu every particular, to return it.

He charges that although B. D. Whitney appears to be the contracting party, yet tho real party is B. F. Butler, and that he understood he was contracting for the BerviceB of Butler.

He further charges that, not having learned that Dyer had made auy recommendation as to his three additiou.il guns steel cores he has not made any such; and further, as Butler has lailed ts perform the agreement on his part, he is entitled to have refunded the earnest mouey $250. Whitney not only insists on retaining the $250, but he esks the full and has filed a claim against Amca for that amount. It is but fair to say that Butler and his clerk, Whitney, seem to have carried out their part of the bad bargain, for Ames secured the payment of a private claim of 70.000 from the last Congress, but he refuses to divide. Of cour.se Ibis Hue episode in 15utlers career will not injure bis high standing iu (he councils of his parly. Living among pious frauds who occupy glass houses, they dare not throw a stone at him.

Tbe Tribune wants Whittcmorc, the leader of it3 party iu South Carolina, sent to the Penitentiary; tbe insists that Acting Secretary of Stnto, Davis, ehall be displaced, because he was convicted by the Massachusetts Legislature of selling out his clients for The same paper calls Police Commissioner Mannierre a "public plunderer," who, while serving in tho Radioal General Committee, is the paid agent of Tammany, Gentlemen, when is this business to end Are not the public, sufficiently satisfied that the whole Radical concern is rotton from top to bottom. THE i S. TREASURY NOT IN LEAGUE WITH THE QUARANTINE RING. The announcement In the Quarantine orgaus yestreday cf the endorsement, by the Federal oflieials of tlie Quarantine assumptions, was at least premature. It may be, and, as tho words were quoted, doubtless, is, true that Solicitor Banfteld has given the opinion attributed to him, but the statement is (his morning made on behalf of the Custom House, that no orders have yet been received from Washington enjoining the Colleclor to act upon the Banfteld opinion and ignore the rights of the port of Perth Amboy.

The '((tiuicsays: For fifty years it has been the custom to allow vessels coming within the jurisdiction of this customs district to proceed to sea, even after the ship had been duly entered at the Custom House, The merchants are pleased with the contradiction of the report, and flatter them selves that Perth Amboy still rctnaius for them. Yesterday the bark Caro arrived at Perth Amboy with a cargo of sugar, and remaining at Quarantine, it was suspected that Dr. Caruochau would make a raid to take her away. The Board of Health of Perth Amooy, therefore, sent an armed poBse on board the bark, to defend her against the New York Quarantine authorities, and wiU look after her till she is discharged. Tho Journal of Commerce goes into the question more fully, and shows the "opinion," whether of Solicitor Banlield or only of the Quarantine ring, is contrary to law.

Section i of the act of March 1, 1817, reads as follows: "No goods, wares or merchandise, shall be imported, under penalty of forfeiture thereof, from one port of the United States to another port of the United States, in a vessel belonging wholly or in part to a subject of anytoreign this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the sailing of any foreign vessel from oue to another port ol the United Slates, provided no goods wares or merchandise, other than those imported iu such vessel from tome foreign port, and which shal not have been unladen, shall be carried from one. purl or place to another in tho United States." This, sajs tho Jottmoi, prohibits a foreign vesse' from loading at one domestic port to unload at another but as it the framer of the law feared that it might be applied to just such a cise as wo have before us, it is added that it does not prohibit any vessel from carrying her foreign cargo unladed from oue port to another. There is no limitation iu it of goods on the manifest marked aB destined for separate ports, but it reserves the privilege of taking all tho cargo brought from a foreign port or place to another iu the United States. Even if the matter were doubtful, wedo not see wby the Treasury Department Bhouldfeel so near of kin to the corrupt political ring iu charge of quarantine afTairs as to play Into its hands. We have seen the now Collector, Mr.

Murphy, and he looks to us like a man who will endeavor to pursue an honest indopondent course In conservation of the great commercial interests with which his department is so closely connected, and not for tho benefit of a company of sharpers. They eay he is fond of fast horses we hope this is true, and that he has the genuine sportsman's theory of the no ble.art, and will hold the lines himself. SUICIDE. The Old, Old Story A Girl Weary of tLifc Jumps into tUe Kivcr. Ab the Grand street ferryboat Oneida was crossing to Williamsburgh at noon yesterday, a German girl was seen to step quickly over tho after chains and throw herself deliberately into tho river.

The boat was stopped. She arose but once, and the strong outward tide Bwcpt tne Buictde out of tho reach of tho many appliances which were brought lo her aid. An elderly German lady, named Mrs. Ehring, who resides in East Fourteenth street, a passenger, stated that she thought she recognized the suicide as one Barbara Eeichardt, or Eckhardt, who had recently come here from Stuttgart. From that nho went to Liverpool (England) to see friends, and, while there, wbb seduced by a conntryman, who, after some months had elapsed, persuaded her to come to America in search of her brother, and gave her un address in New York, where he said she could find her relative.

He also promised her to follow in a week or two. She arrived in New York three weeks ago, failed to Und her brother at the address given her by her seducer, and she was driven to this terrible death. Chicago Commeeoial Mobals. The Chi cago Tribune gives a sorry idea of tho commercial mo ni nf tr.nl fast citv. which, oxcent In laxity of tho XUUVJ marriage law, was not supposed to bo worse than the rest of the world.

Itsaya: The name of a Chicago warehouseman has become sjnonymouB with that of a pirate, in the agricultural districts, and there has been amplo justification therefor, although some innocent meu suffer with the guilty. A man who sends 1,000 bushels of wheat to Chicago, and obtains a reseipt for 050; who pays 2 cents storage, and is next day told his grain is "hot," and is compelled to sell the receipt back to the warehouseman at a Iosb of 10 cents a bushel, and who seeB that same grain Jold and delivered next day as perfectly sound, and at Price has juBt cause to pronounce this system business a swindle, and those engaged in it i5o.bucl1 transactions have become so common grain market 1b a stench in the nostrils 2n may be safely affirmed that nrttfdshU grain to Chicago who can rJifi ierei eend grain here and submit to be robbed becauuo thej have no choice..
