OMEDITIOI FOUKP DBOWflEP. An unknown man, about forty five years years old, size about five feet seven Inches, was found floating in the water at the foot of Bedgwiok street, this morning early, and was afterward taken to the morgue.

Sower Matter Second. District Conrt Business. The Commissioners of City Works have entered on a new campaign. They have Issued or rather Purveyor Bhodes has, with tho approval of President Palmer an order to the watering eartmen, pot to hare painted or carried oa their carts any ulcus or advertisements such as have heretofore been placed on such carts. The watering oart men have been in the habit of increasing their receipts by making advertising mediums of their carta.

Commissioner Palmer and Purveyor Bhodes object, to this, on the ground that it is likely toonceal the names of the eartmen, and because It looks objectionable, Mr. Force, a Court street confectlonr, has taken exception to the new rule. He complained of it before the Commissioners this morning, and the matter was referred to Commissioner Palmer. It is understood that Mr. Force will refuse to have his sign removed from the cart on which he has placed it, and if the Commissioners cut off the driver's supply of water, as they claim the right to do, he will take the mailer to Court on a mandamus to compel them to show cause why they should not supply water to a man who pays the license foe and complies with all reasonable rules of the Water Department.

Mr. Force Baid If a king or an emperor issued such an order as this, we would call him a despot." The mutter is a Bmall one, bnt there is a principle involved in it waioh promises to give tho some trouble before they get through. LITTLE STBEET SEWEB. The property ownerB on Little street aro divided on the question as to whether it fa desirable to have a sewer constructed through it. A portion of them petitioned for one, and the Commissioners of City WorkB resolved to construct it.

This morning opponents of the measure appeared to remonstrate against it, and among them Mr. Benson, of the Brooklyn Gas moneys paid aneh witness wero by order of the Court' and were wholly rrnrer, and I especially invite attention to the malice which alone mast have prompted tucb a charge bb briuing Jaekaon aa a witness under the clroumstances shown. TO OHABOB EIGHT. That Insert improper language I have Interposed toy denial, which was all the nature of the oase admitted, and I submit, If true, it affords no ground for executive action. TO OHABOB NINE.

That I have bribed members of tha Board of Supervisors. I have denied the faot and called attention to the circumstance that no specification of persons is made, and yet no specification is attempted, from whloj it may be fairly Inferred that none can he. TO OHABOB TEN. That I sought to protect one G. T.

Baisbeok from an Indictment for perjury by causing bim, with others, to be Indicted for conspiracy. I have shown that the ends of Justice demanded tho Indictment ae found, and that the question was whether my cfilce Bhould.be used to cause a distribution of the plunder, or to pnnish those who criminally obtained it, and by the certificate of tho Grand Jury that I sought to Influence their action In no manner whatever. TO OHABOB ELEVEN. That I prevented a Grand Jury from examining Into the truth of charges made agalnst me by a certain newspaper, by causing aaid jnry to be adjourned I have shown that through my request to the court they did so examine into suoh charges and wholly exonerated me therefrom, and without any interference on my part, and in my absence that other ohargea being made by the same persons, they were not wholly examined because the term was at an end, and tbey could not lawfully ait longer, which facts are shown by their preentment and the certificate of Judge Moore. And 1 have submitted that these'chargCB are the result of personal malice alone, as proof of whloa I respectfully olte tbe total overthrow of mostof tbe original charge? by documentary 8nd other conclusive proofs, and by the fact especially that in tbe rejoinder It is alleged that the card of Gibney and Fogarty, showing authority to Keenan to sign their names, was itself a forgery, when tho person making said statement knew otherwise from information derived irom Fogarty himself.

AND I FDBTHEB UBOE TJPON YOUB EXCELLENCY to Inquire of any of the citizens of Brooklyn if tbis allegation made by me is not well and generally understood in that city to be true bnt 1 further suggest to your Excellency, that although the words "corrupt" and "corruptibly "are quite often used, the nature nf such alleged corruption does not appear, and that no one has yet assumed to make any Intimation of pecuniary motive, on my part, for any alleged wrong, but the charges are in the main relating to matters concerning which I am clothed with al. cretion by law, and relating to which some corrupt motive should be specified. All of which 1b respectfully submitted. WlNOHESTEB BMTTOK, District Attorney, Kings Cjunty. State op New York, Coontvof Kittas, Cite op Brooklyn ss.

Winchester Britton, of said city, being duly sworn. Bays that all and singular, thematters stated and contained in his foregoing supplemental answer to the charges and specifications made against bim, as District Attorney of Kings County, whion relate to his own action or are within his own knowledge are true, and that all the residue of matters are trne according to his information and belief. Winchester Bbztton. Sworn to before me this! 16th day of Hf.ney Sheia, Notary Public (68), N. Y.

City and County. PBTEB FOGAfilY's AFFIDAVIT. Kinds County, City of Bkookltn, ss. Petor Fogarty being sworn, says: I am the Peter Fcgirty whose name was alleged to have been forged by Patrick Keenan, and for which he was indioted. I published a card in the Brooklyn Eagle of date Maroh 14, 1872, wherein I stated that my name was signed by said Keenan by my authority.

On or about the 28th day of March, 1873, Saml. D. Morris and A. C. Davis called at my place of business in Brooklyn and said MorriB BBked roe in snbBtance if I signed said card, to which I answered I did, and I further stated to him that what I stated in 6aid card was true.

He then said "You will not swear to that," to which answered "I will swear to it whenever I am required to testify on the BUbject." He then said "You have seen Britton lately," to which I answered that I had not seen Britton slnco he became District Attorney except in tho Grand Jury room, which was tho fact, whereupon said Morris left. Petes Foqabty. Sworn before me, April 10, 1873. Miohaex. Fanning, Commissioner of Deeds.

PUooalel. 4 O. SLADB 4 00. Tne Wickedest Ulan In Brooklyn Tries to Hang Hlmsolf at tne Pen. Itentiary John Jessup, a young rough of notorious character and habits, who has spent the greater portion of bis time since he waa aixteen years of age In prtaon, and has done the State some service in the King! ConntyFeniteniJary, tried to put an end to hia life there on 8 jturday evening.

About a week ago he was taken ont of tho Penitentiary on a writ of habeas corpus obtained by Mr. James J. Gray. He was then Berving a term of four months for having brutally assaulted a poor old woman at the corner of Bdtio and and Nevins streets. He hadn't been out above a couple of days when ho abueed hts mother, a common proceeding on his part, and his brother interfering in her behalf was "laid out" by Jessup.

The brother obtained a policeman and had him arrested and he was brought for a eeoond time before Justice Maben, who well knowiDg his character, sent him tho Penitentiary for six monthi. Shortly after he had been incarcerated in one of the ceila in tho male ward, he ATTEMPTED TO HANG HIMSELF. He undid the cord of his bed, and making a running loop put it around hts neck. He then stood on the bed and tied tbe other end of the cord to the top bars of the cell door. Having fastened it to his satisfaction he jumped from the bed.

He experienced a very ugly Jerk about his nock and a heavy fatt, in which hiB sconce struck the stone wall and didn't hurt it a bit, for the rope was too thin to hold Joseph's weight, he being a heavy, thick Bet fellow. The nolBO of the fall and the groan of patn which it elicited from the prisoner, alarmed thakeeperB, and on pro ceeding along the different cells they came to Jessup'rf, where they found that worthy lying on the fl jor taking the noose off his neck and bleeding slightly from tha nose. The ropo made a very ugly scar where it tight ened, and the fall resulted in one or two braises, but this was all the injury he received. Keeper James Shevliu had his Injuries attended to, and then locked bim up in one of the penitential celip, whore no opportunity exists for him to shuffle off his mortal coil, and into which no light ia admitted. SECOND PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

Is the VMlor of ihe Brooklyn Eagle The Examiner and Chronicle, a New York Bai'tist paper, takes npon itself to decido upon the present condition and future prospects of tho Second Presbyterian Oburcb, and thinks there are too many PreBbytt riun Churches on tha Heights. In the same article, however, he proposes to build a Baptist Tabar nacle within oue block of tbe Second Presbyterian Church. I dPBire to inform tbe Examiner, and others similarly interested, that tbe Second Presbyterian Church does not propose to remove, disband or unite with any other church, but to continue to do the Lord's work as He shall give it the ability.

LOCAL BRtYITIES. To night a military ball and reception is to be given by the Twenty eighth Regiment, Col. J. Ber ger, at the Armory, corner of BuBhwick avenue and Stagg street, which same is a fruitful topic for consideration among the Germans of the district. At a recent meeting of the officers and members of the South Fourth street Presbyterian Ohuroh, and in view of the announced intention of the nastor, Bev.

Glentworth Butler, to retire from his charge on account of ill health, resolutions appropriate to the occasion were unanimously adopted, expressive of regret et the severance so soon to occur, Mr, Butler will depart with the outgoing month. A testimonial concert at the Lee avenue Baptist Church, aud flowers, music and statuary at the Apollo Booms comprise the more prominent entertainments to occur in the Eastern District this evening. The first Is behalf of Mr. W. H.

Woodcock, the organist, about to take hia departure from this city and reside in Montreal. Miss C. Lasar, and Messrs. G. W.

Morgan, Carl Eisner, F. Marsdan and others will assist. Tbe affair at the Apollo is to be a reception by the pupils of Prof. Foster's Conservatory of Music, and gives promise of being a success ful and brilliant festival. If report be true, a severe clubbing received yesterday morningiy Joseph Lobnor, at the hands of an irate beer ealoon proprietor named George Miller, of No.

45 Johnson avenue, E. was well doserred by the victim. However that may bo, Miller haabeon arrested for the assault, in justification for which he says that Lehner not only obtained beer for whioh he refused to pay but, when remonstrated with and ordered to leave, he broke a obair and Beveral ultimately became so violent as to leave Miller no other alternative in self defense. About a week since a Mrs. Ellen Wagner, who Uvea corner of Ninth street and Broadway, E.

was robbed of a broohe sbawl and some Jewelry, together valued at $60, by a young colored fellow named Henry Henderson, whose ago is 10 years. On Saturday Officer Hirst secured tho offender, as also most of the property stolen, and to day Justice Elliott committed the prisoner for the Grand Jury. Young men like one Charles Bender of tha Fourteenth Ward, who seemingly live without work, had better Btop loafing about Btreet corners, 03 Justice Elliott will invariably send all such, as often as arrested, to Jail for ten days. The Justice and Buch offloor8 as Timothy Phaleri are determined these ohaps Bhali get employment of some character. The calico ball of the James Shevlin Association, so named la respect to the popular Keepar of the Penitentiary, takes place this evening at the Olty Assembly Rooms, and promises to be a very pleasant affoir.

Judging from the exertions of the members, the entertainment will be another success, and fully as enjoyable as other affairs of the kind. The body of George Looiwood, drowned yoBterdayatihefootof Thirtieth street, East Biver, was recovered this morning, and notice sent to tho Coroner, Clara Many, J. Mulligan, Louis Maok and Jas. Adams ware arrested thla morning, charged with dealing in liquor and tobaooo without paying the special tax. Commiaaionar Wlnslow held them to await examination.

Before the Are oould be extinguished about $108 worth of clothing waa destroyed, Fully insured. At the foot of Sedgwiok street, this morning, a body of an unknown man, about 6 feet In length, was found floating In the water, and had apparently been in the water for a month.

Bchroeder, from tbe Committee on 3ffifllatioD. reported that the Commit'ee had met and decided on recomwetidtBg certain amendments to the charter. Thelites offered by Mr. Barnes, he ealrf, had been taken into consideration, and the Committee recommended lhat they be made part of the bylaws, or bo much of them as tha organization thought proper to approTfl. THE EXP.CTJTrVE COMMITTEE.

The minutra of the Executive Committee wore thpn read and approved. From them it appaarei that on March the.fofal of tho Company disbursements amounted to $3,500,000. EXAMINATION OP THE ACCOUNTS. On motion of the Chairman, all the hills and vouch ers elnce the first of June list, were referred to the Finance Committee for audit. Up to tha.

they had been examined by the Investigating Committee, HIGH PBICE OF GBAWITE, The Chairman said the contract for eranito which was about to be entered into for the Brooklyn tonrar waa at a higher price by flfteou per cent, than hid been previously paid. The reason of this waa Baid io ne tnat moBt oi tbe Ptoue would have to be iced and the additional labor reaulred in nut tine it Involved thn additional expense. CHIEF ENGINEEB KOEBLING. A letter was read from Chief Engineer Roeblintr. asking for a four months' leare of abionce, on che ground of ill health.

He paid he had made arrangements for continuing tbe work. The Chairman said he took tbe liberty of granting Col. Roebling the leave asked for, aud on motion of air. vance mis action was approved, AliBANT LEGISLATION. The Chairman Bivid that tho amendments' to tbo Company's charter had been Introduced into the Assembly.

Whether they would pass or not, without the presence of somo member of the Company at Albany, be could not say. Tho bill waB precisely as hid been reported by the Legislative Committee. He mentioned thia in order to be relieved from the delicate position of taking any action iu the matter, lie being a member of the Senate. Nothing was done on this suggestion. INTEBEST ON PBIYATE SUBSCRIPTIONS.

Mr. Vance Baid ho sbouid move a further amendment to tho charter, to this effect: That on all the subscriptions by private parties to the stock interest at tbe rate of seven per cent, per auuum be paid from tbe present time to the completion of the Bridge. Hi made tbe motion in order to keep tho present Company intact Judge McCue seconded the motion. Mr. Hewitt acked if it was proposed to pay interest to the iudlviduai stockholders and not to the cicied, who had subscribed liberally to the stock? He was not prepared to discriminate between the two classes at present.

Mr, Vance thought that some recognition ought to be mado to the subscribers for their outlay at the commencement of the enterprise, aud to encourage pti vate. subscriptions. Mr. Barnes objected to the motion on account of tbe addit onal expense which the Company would become liauie i or. Mr.

Vance Why not move to include the two cities Mr. Hewitt said he could not do that, for the reason mat new xotk anu urooaiyu wouiu do called upon shi rtly for more money, and as the interest to tha in dividual stockholders would at tha present time amount year, an injustice wuuld be done to the cities by such a motion. Judge McCue thought there would be great impropriety in awarding interest to the two cities, as the interest money would have to be raised out of tho aamo Eeonle and the same property aB the present bridge ends came from, and the further raising of money might be impeded. Mr. Stranahan approved of tho motion.

Mr. Schroeder said the cities had a right to take coutrol of the bridge, if it provod a success. The aimple question wat: Is it well fur the two cities to reward the private stockholders for investing in the enterprise 7 Ha thought not, at leaBt, that the present lime was inopportune. Judge McCue believed that tho people of Brooklyn with few exceptions would approve of paying interest to the private stockholders. Mr.

Marshall approved of paying individual stockholders seven per ctnt.t ifit did not exceed that rate. He did not wish them, on the completion of the enterprise, to receive 33 per cent, on thoir stock, from the two cities, at the completion of the enterprise, if that were done. The Chairman said that tne proposition was new to him, and suggested a reference of the motion to the Legislative Committee. Mr. Schroeder thought it wauld be well to havo an expresBion of opinion at once.

The matter was, however, referred to the Legislative Committee to report next Monday. mb. barnes's amendments. Mr. Barnes remarked that he wanted the amendments oiTered by him to be included in the charter, wh'chwasnot dona by the report of the Legislative Committee.

He wished to dissent on that point with the report which had been presented. The Chairman said that any member was at liberty to call the question up. This was not done, and the Board then, adjourned to Monday next. ERIE. Tilden, Harlow and Cisco as Witnesses The work of investigating Erie continues at the Fifth AVenuo Hotel.

This morning Johu was tho first sworn. Ho be canio a director of Erie in Mr. Hall's place; was present at tbe meeting of tbe directors at which the payment of $30,000 was directed to be mado to Mr. Vanderbilt wan also when tho paymeut tbe dividend was authorized; heard tbo statements of the condition of the road irom tho officers, and was in favor of the dividend being declared, us he had every confidence in the pi'Od faith of he officers making the report; had nothing to do with the negotiations or carrespond ence witu Bichofftheim with regard to the loan on the nvertible bonds thought that two aud a half per cent, commission waa a reasonable charge that the transactions were of favorable character to tbe Erie Company. Wheeler Peckham testified that he had no knowledge of money beiug raid to Attorney General Barlow by Mr.

Gould or tho Erie Company, and he believed that he had never received a fraction; had heard what Mr. Shearmau had stated before the committee on Saturday about witness dividing a fee of $10,000 with General Barlow, and alao of the disch irge of the Grand Jury; tbiB wan totally without foundation and utterly untrup; never acted for General Bir iow or divided a fee with him, and hid nothing to do with the discharge of tho Gruud Jury. Samuel J. Tildou testified To Mr. Babcock No money waB evBr received by the Democratic Gt neral Committee from Jay Gould or the Erio Compauy in fome instances conlribntiona were mado by Mr.

'to Mr. Wight Tho com mi tee had nothing 'to do with tho contributions io the Senators. Iu the election of 1871 he hoard rumors of money having been fenl by tho Erio Company, but had no personal. knowledge of thorn.

MBKDER CASES. The Trim of SbarUey lor Ii.il line Dunn. The report that William J. Sharkey waa to be tried to day, In tho New York Court of Gonoral Ses eioDB, for the murder of Robert Dunn, Uom Shirkoy killed in a saloon on Hudson street, is incorrect, as the trial will not take plico until the latter part of the week. Both men were members of a Michael Norton Association, and the murder took place on their return from the funeral of a fellow memher.

Tbe Sentence of Fitzg ibbons for Killing 0ttara In the Court of Oyer and Terminer to day, oeforo Judge Brady, John Fitzgibbons, who is indicted for Killing Janice O'Hara on Christmas evening, withdrew hia plea of not guilty and pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the first degree.

Tho iacts of tho caso, aa atated by the District Attorney in accosting tho plea, are theso Both the prisoner and tbo deceased lived on the same floor in a tonement houso in Forty sixth street, between First and Second avenues. On tbe evening in question O'Hira went into the rooms of tho prisoner, when a slight quarrel oc cui red in which the parties were separated by AErs. O'Hara, As the deceased and hia wife were leaving tho rooms from ono door, a friend of Ihe latter named Crlmmius, with whom the prisonor had quarreled in London, entered at another.

Tho prisoner got a butcliot, locked tho door aud used threatening language toward Crimmins, who cried for help. O'flura caroo to his rescue, broko through a panel of the door of tho prisoner's room with a hammer. Tho prisoner then granted O'Hara with one hand and struck him several times with a hatchet, from tho wouuds of which he died about four das after. PLYMOUTH MUSIC.

It tolls its own story. Gilbert Spear, of the firm of Spear Marsh, N. has been appointed by the Governor to take evidence In the case.

Nothing, however, will do aone until alter the Legislature adjourns. Brooklyn, April 18T3. To Bit Excellency the Qovtrnor of the Stale of New xotk: A. a supplemental answor to the charges preferred against me, in the name of the Committee of Fifty, I beg leave tu submit the following TO OHABCJE THBEE. That Daniel L.

Norton, who is represented "In the rejoinder to my answer as a lawyor of the highest standing," (which face will be quite new to tbe citizens of Brooklyn) 1b the person preferred to by me In my answer as having oalled upon me in a state of partial intoxication to nek my advice as to the propriety of applying for a new trial for Weldon and MoGiff, who had been con of a violation of the election laws, and bad serv el the full term of their aentenoe. That the affidavits of McKenna and Weldon submitted to you in connection wicb the statement of said Norton are those used by him on a motion made by him for said new trial, and that I never utw said affidavits or either of them or knew their contents until filed In tha City Court of Brooklyn on tha hearing of the motion. That as soon 8 th'ay were known to me I oaused the arrast of Dunn ml Keenan thereon, and Bought to find the affiants Weldon and McKenna, that I might on their testimony hold said Dunn and Eeenan for the Grand Jury, but thay had fled an! could not be found aa stated heretofore by ma In the answer already filed. TO OHAIiOK SIX. I herewith submit an affidavit of Petor Fogarty, in order to ahow your Excellency that at the very time that the rojolnder of the Committee pronounoed the card of Fogarty and Glbney referred to fn my answer a forgery and known to me as such, the counsel of this Committee being the author of these aharges well knew, that said card was genuine and its contents true, and it is not true atated in said rejoinder that said Fogarty and Gibney or either of them Bwere before the Grand Jury, that their names had been forged, but on the contrary their testimony before the Grand Jury was quite the reverse, as the minutes of said Jury novt in so.

pusHOBSion and ready to be produced, if required, will BhOW. TO OHABOB TEN. I submit aa follows In 1871, the year before I assumed the office of District Attorney, I was retained as counsel for defendants to try tha case of Charles Gardner, against George W. Gardner, Gilbert T. Ralsbeck and others in tne Supreme Court of Kings County.

The action waB brought to set ade an assignment of mortgages of the nominal value of twenty four thousand dollars made by George W. Gardner as Trustee of tho plaintiffs, to defendant, Baisbeok. The issue was whether thie BBtignment was made with or without consideration. I waB retained by G. H.

Bertrand, the Attorney lor Baisbeck and George W. Gardner. I had before ran acted business for Bertrand, but never to my rec nn for Ralsbeck. At the trial Baisbeck testified thai be exchanged certain bonds and gave certain othtr considerations for said mortgages, naming time and placo. In this he waa corroborated by one Cook, who was to mo a stranger.

George W. Gardner did not appear at the trial, though he served a sworn answer in which he expressly alleged that he received full consideration for tbe mortgages, and in another action for accounting between tne other Gardners and himself had furnished a verified account in which he had charged himself with the bonds, thus alleged to have ben received from Ratabeck for the mortgages. Tbe action wae decided in favor of the dofendauts. In Jai uary, 1873, A LAWrEB NAMED BILLINGS applied to mo with affidavits of Cook ond George TV. Gardner alleging that said Baisbeck and Cook had Ku cm falsely on Raid trial, and that no consideration was paid for the mortgages, and also alleging that said Raitbtck lived in New Jersey, and asking a certificate from me of the offense shown to enable an application to be made to the Governor for a requisition for sad Rait beck.

I suggested that I did not think the Governor would consider a man a fugitive from justice in law against whom neither a warrant had been issued nor indictment found. He expressed his confidence oicerwise, ana i signed me certificate. A few dujs after that Ralsbeck called at my house and stated that he had arrested Bertrand. and had been arrested by him in New Jersey, and that he hid understood that criminal proceedings had been instituted against him in Kings Oonntv. and If bo he de Fired to be heard, alleging that Bertrand was seeking cxiurb uiuuoy uuin iitui uu luo allegation, mac no had never paid value for those mortgages, though, in fact, be had.

I told him that no were pending in this county, and he left, although a day or two afterward 1 received copies of documents from him, being minutes of testimony on the former trial, a copy of George W. Gardner's answer and the accounting heretofore referred to. soon tnereaner saiu again caned ana said THE OOTEBNOB DECLINED TO ISSUE THE BEQUI BITION for the reason stated by me and desired to go before tbe Grand Jury to indict BalBbeck for perjury to enable bim to get a requisition. I asked him whom he represented, to which ho answered, Bertrand. I ask eu aim wnat was me trouoie oecween iiercrana ana Kuisbeck.

to which he answerer! that Ralabeck had clieated Iiertrand and George W. Gardner out of a share of the mortgages. I then said to him that it looked to me as though tbiB waa an attempt to my omce ror entirely improper purposes cnac I suspected that the requisition was intended to be used only to arrest Ratabeck and let him go on a settlement. 1Mb, nowevcr. no amijimed.

1 at length said to him that 1 was of thtj opinion that they had all conspired lo cneat tne tiaroner trainers and catnarine Flynn, bitter, out of their share of these mortgages, and I would imtitute a thorough examination Into tho whole matter before tbe Grand Jury. lie altBrward lurnlsned the names of witnesses who were subpened, among whom waa Thomas Darlington. Esq atrornev for plaintiff in the former action. I sent toe before tUe Grand Jury, entered upon their docket thus: "Perjury against G. T.

Ralsbeck or conspiracy." I attended the examination mysepT, p'ating to tbe Grand Jury that if any wrone had been committe'l in the matter about to come before them it was in connection with an action wbioh I had myself tnea for the accused parties, and I DESIRED THEM TO MAKE A THOBOUGH EXAMI NATION iEtolle matter, as I desired particularly in this case that the guilty party ahould be punished. After the evidence waa taken I loft the room stating in substaLce to them that tbe matter was exclusive for them, that if they thought them all guilty to so und, or against any whom they might find guilty, and they fouud a bill for conspiracy against all. And it la apparent irom an examination ox tne pieadlngB ana proceedings in Ihe case of Gardner v. Baisbeck, et ibat either rha transfer of the mortgages was a bona fide sale, in which case there could be no perjury upon tho part of any of tho witnessed for the defense, or that all the defendants, Including George W. Gardner, ruuhpireu iu eneui me piaiuun ana an, eituer in giving evidence or in their answers, swore falslv.

On tbe lalterBiu I'OsitioH. which is probably correct, the sole ques'ion arose whether a quarrel betweeu the four accused over their spoils tbo Grand Jury should Indite une, und tho whole machinery of criminal justice bo et in motion to enforoo an equitable distribution of tbe proceeds of a crime among those who oommitted it or all the parties should he made to answer for their joiut offense. On the day the examination was pending Bertrand wus in attendance in tho ante room as a a witness, but was NOT EXAMINED FOB WANT OF TIME and he was notified to come on the following day. On that day he did not attend and I sent for him and in ioimed BJJiugs that hie attendance was desired, but not attending on that day the indictment was found. ne can ou tue lonowiog aay ana was arrested nnaer a bench warrant by an officer in whose hands it had been previously placed.

A'terthe indictment was found and before the arrest of any of the parties. Billings appeared and desire I to lmow who hail been indicted, which information I declined to give bim. He then asked me to givo a je quifition to an officer whom he should name if Biis beck was in Jicted. to which I replied that I ahojl eend one of our own officers, for there should tie no compromiee brought between Baisbeck and Bertrand in that way with my consent. Whereupon he expressed his dissatisfaction and left.

1 never saw said Billings except In the pressnce of others in my office, and I D1TEBLY DENY EVEBY WOBD IN HIS AFFIDAVIT inconsistent with this statement, and; especially wherever he alleges the nse of any profane language what ever. Bertrand and Gardner were arrested and balled. Cook and Ralsbeck have not been found. I deny that tbe indictment purports to have been found on the complaint of any one and tho statement to inai enecr maoB in THE BEJOINDEB OF THE COMMITTEE OF FIFTY ABE WHOLLY tTNTBlfE, but I alloge that itjwas made aB heretofore stated and in no other way. Said indictment ready to be produced will show that it is not true lhat "in the in lict ment found against these four purties, Charles Gird ner, Daniel Gardner, and Catherine M.

Flynn are named as the partiCB upon whose complaint said indictment was procured" bb alleged, and I submit that tbeir affidavits that they havo not made any complaint are quite superfluous in that regard. And I respectfully submit to your hlxcellenoy, that it is oifficnli to conjecture how I was to protect Gilbert F. l'aikbeck irom a criminal prosecution bv canting bin), a non rosident, to be indicted for one crime, meceaa oi anoiier, wuica is suDstantiany tne charge here made, ond I utterly deny any auch intent, or desire on my part. And I further allege that I have never seen either Baisbeck or Cook sinoe said indictment was found, nor do I know, nor havo I known where either of thorn could be fouud. This, I apprehend, disposes of this matter, even thoueti It be conoedea.

which I am not willing to admit, that I am responsible for the action of gr md juries or that I have ever Bought to oontrol their action. And I hereto annex a statement of the members of said Grand Jurv presented to me bv their foreman, as to my tctirn before them in relation to the subject matter of this cnarge. And in conclusion I respectfully submit as follows TO OBABGE ONE. That I shielded Mr. BadeauifromJIndiotment by im pr' piily adviBing aGrand Jury with a corrupt intent I have shown' that I bad not even knowledge or tne cnarges maae, ana lurtuer auomtt utt uiu a known, my advice was correct and prove my st tte ment aB lo what occurred before said Grand Jury, by the certificate of nearly the whole of their members submitted to you.

TO OHABOE FOUB. That I did not prosecute John Devlin. I have shown lhat It wan no case which required prosecution, and that no bargain as alleged waB made about it, which Is connrmea oy tne statement of doviio.

TO OHABOE FITS. That I did not ruirv the indictment aeainst Mrs, Van Bnskirk. I havn shown bv the certificate of Mr. Spencer that a nolle was entered under the advice of my predecessor, also of tho County Judge presiding when the indictm.nt was obtained, and by and with the acquiescence of the Judge presiding at tho flrat trial. And I refer to stenographer's mlnutea of tha first trial of said case, herewith submitted, to establish mo ract stated by me, bnt denlea ny tne persona mating such charge that there waa no question of abor uuu in iae case.

The Government promised exert, I some future day, its good offices li their fcehalf with the Governor of for the relief cf Ihcir chiefs, provided they Bhould fulfil their promises as above stated. Since that time the Indiana have done ai they promised, but owing to the Modoc massaore and the consequent excitement, especially in Indian localities, the Government is not now advising the release of Big Tree and Sant anta.

Btbeet, April SI 3 P. M. The price of gold was broken down early this afternoon by free sales on the part of one of the leading operators in the room. Tho amount unloaded was about $3,000,000, and as it was sold at the very lowest price of tbo day it is supposed that tho seller haB an intimation of what will probably be the course of tho market for the week, or that his views are based upon facts obtained fram London. Present correspondence from that money centre is to the effect that, owing to the difficulties in the negotiation, some of the foreign losas will he deferred for a few months, and, meanwhile, money will be easy in London.

The report telegraphed on Saturday that the money rate over there was 3 per cent, is not contradiot ed, and aa it is probably true, a reduction in the rate at the Bank, of England is not improbable. Apgainst this we hare the shipment of bullion by the Scotia on Saturday, but this was doubtless done for effect. Tho rate of exchange was rapidly advanced to day at the close of the market. It stood 108 for GO day and 109 for eight, or )i per cent, higher than the opening and 2 per cent, higher than the lowest point last week. This sharp advance is caused by the demand.

While money waa tight merchants refrained from buying sterling and deferred remittances until money Bhould case up again. Meanwhile there was a slight demand from parties going to Europe, but drawers wore not willing to make many bills at the extreme low rates. Now money has eased up the merchants arj resuming remittances and the domand causes an advance in the rate. Tho movement of one per cent, more in tbe upward dfrection will bo slow bat when that point fs reached we may expect shipments of gold to Europe and this may be done before the Scotia arrives here with tbo English bullion. St.

Paul commmon stocks moved up to before the second call this afternoon and Northwest sold at 83. The lowest point touolied by the drat named during the panic of last week was 53, so that there is a clear advance of per cent, since last week. Tho movement is caused by reports that a combination is being made either to pool tho earnings of the St. Paul and tho Northwest or to consolidate the roads. The tracks and branches run near each other, and the business in some cases interfers.

By consolidation a gigantic monopoly would bo organized which would place tho finances of North west at the mercy the combination. Pacific Mill has been quite active to day, ranging between 60 and 61, but no good reason is assigned far it; the story that a transatlantic Company were seeking to obtain control of Ihe stocks not being entertained. The ease in money has given an impulse to stock speculation and almost every thing on the active list has been strong and settling at prices from 5 to 7 per cent, above the lowest of last week. At tho opening of the second call Erie stood at G6; Lake Shore, 93; Bock Island, 109; Central, 102; Union Pacific, 33X; C. C.

and I. Ohio, 45; Wabash. 70; Harlom, 127; New Jersey Central, 100f. A movement is noticed in New Jersey Southern, which advanced 2 per cent, over the opening and (v, per cent, above the lowest price of last week. This is caused by tho improved prospocts of the road, which, during the Summer, will do a large Long Branch business, and compete for the Philadelphia trade with the Camden and Amboy.

Money has ranged between Vper cant, and 01th of ono per cent, and interest, and there is said to bd a supply in tho banks and on the streets. Governments though dull are slightly advanced in price, and there is a scarcity of C7', which have been taken Hp quite rapidly during tbe past two weeks.

The majority, of course, went on foot, bui the number in carriages was unusually large; and tho scene from three to five P. at the lake end of the Park and on all the roads leading to Breeze Uitl, with tbe magnificent avenues of trees, covered with green of the ten derest tint, the bright sun and blue eky, and tho shimmpr of the ocean in the distance, was very animated, indeed. It turned quite cool toward evening, and the Park soon became deserted. Tbe Commissioners are putting a handsome ornamental railing round the fountain at the plaza, and lamps are to be placod around it. This will effectually prevent any one driving into the basin after dark, as was unfortunately tho case once last year.

The last of the series of six concerts given at Burnfaam'a Academy under the' auBplces of the Tweuty lUird Regiment Band, took place on Saturday night, and the Hall was crowded on the occasion.

In May Signor Conterno is to the recipient of a complimentary concert, which ha well merits, at the hands of the regiment. STABBING AFFRAY. A recent stabbing affray, which occurred in an EaBtern District beer saloon, in First Btreet, near Grand, the parties to which were William Hurth and John Mourer, by one or both or whom Joseph Benl and August Friedmonth were slightly' injnred by stab wounds, was disposed of by Justice Elliott, who committed both tho accused to await the action of the Grand Jury. ST. YINCENT DE PAUL'S.

Seven Hundred People Confirmed. Tor a few weeks past a number of the members of the ordor of the LazariBt Fathers of Canada have been holding a mission at the Church of St. Vincent DePaul, in North Sixth street, near Fifth, E. and the results have been of the most satisfactory character. Dariog the mission, seven thousand per sons received the sacrament of Commuuion.

Beside these labors, the Fathers have been busily engaged in preparing the children and adults of the congregation who had not previously been confirmed for the reception of that sacrament, and the result was that nearly eight hundred ertonB over six hundred boys and girls and a hundrei and forty adults received the Faciament of confirmation, at the bands of Bishop Loughlin. The scene was very impressive, the more especially as among those of the adults who received the rite of confirmation were fourteen convertB from other denominations to tbe lloman Cathoho faith, among whom was included a well known minister of tbe Methodist persuasion. In a short and touching discourse the Bishop explained to the candidates tho nature of the sacrament, and said that he was glad to find in thse iufidsl times the piety and fidelity of tho followers of the Church of Rome. When confirmation was ovor thy loft tho church in a procession, headed by Father Farrolly, who had them in chargo, and went through Fourth, North Fifth, Seventh, and passed Fathor lFoffman'rf church, returning to church through North Sixth, They then went home. RUBINSTEIN CONCERT.

A noteworthy matinee performance took place on Saturday at Steinway Hall, the occasion be ing the last concert given by the Thomas Rubinstein combination. It was said to be tho "last concert," but Thomas, like Crummies, has a "positively last appear, aace" yet in 6tore, and perhaps a grand farewell' last appearance. METHODISM AND CATHOLICISM. Yesterday afternoon an immense congrega tion thronged St. Mary's Boman Catholic Church, Leonard and South First Btreet, E.

on the occasion of tho admission to the Church of ttvolvo converts, among whom was Bev. Mr. Dakin, a Methodist minis ter, well known in that part of the city. Mr. Dakin was recently assigned to tho pastoral charge or a Methodist church in Amboy, but declinodthe appoint ment and resolved to seek admission into the Catholic Church.

Tbo Pastor of St. Mary's addressed tho neophytes on the important step they were about to take, and ox plained the rite of baptism wbioh they were about to receive. He then read the profession of faith, after which each one advanced and read it individually, and kissed tho Bible. They were then baptized, and the congregation was soon afterward dismissed. HELPING THE SAILORS.

At the Church of the Pilgrims yesterday morning, Bev. Dr. StorrB preached in behalf of the American Seaman's Friend Society. The discourse was noticeable for its freedom from the cant which often characterizes the advocacy of special "causes," and for the absence of everything like sentlmentalism The preacher considered the Bailor, not as a hetoio ideal, but as an actuality, not always creditable to the civilization he so often represents. The duty of do ing something toward the elevation of seamen by re finiDf, educating influences was so thoughtfully and eloquently urged, that the collection boxes, after their passage through the congregation, came back well filled.

CONFERENCE ON THE CHARTER, On Saturday last a secret conference of politicians waB held in the building in which Senator Murphy has an office. Senator Perry and Generals Jourdan and Tracy wore present. It is understood that several well known Democratlo politicians, among the number General Blocnra, Judge McCue, Bobert Furry and others equally well known were also there. The Tbe details of tbe proceedings have been kept secret but It is stated on good authority that as a result of this conference the charter will bo pushed through tha Senate in about the same shape as it originally came from tbe Committee of the Hundred. It has been determined to create the office of Begistrar of Arrears.

To night Senator Perry leavos for Albany. The charter, In all probability, will be reported to the Senate with amendments within a day or two. PUBLIC SCHOOL NO. 13. Professor Calvin Patterson, of Buffalo, who who was recently appointed Principal of Public School No.

ROUGHS RAMPANT. Almost a Riot in Hudson Avenue A Couple of Policemen Beaten, and One Seriously Injured Arrests made. Officer Spelman, of th Fourth. Precinct, was on duty in Hudson avenue yesterday morning and Baw a man between Myrtle avenue and Johnson street staggering along very much under the influence of liquor. The man's name was Peter Mnrphy, and in addition to being drunk he was disorderly.

Spelman went and arreBted him, and was taking him toward Myrtle avenue when Murphy resisted him, and in the struggle which ensued a crowd of roughs collected, and under the pretence of holding Murphy and assisting the officer they took Spelman's prisoner away com him. Spelman rapped for assistance, and officer Frlel who was on tho adjoining poet came over, and while engaged in attempting to rearrest Murphy he was struck oh the hack of the head by some of the crowd with a heavy weapon of some description and knook ed down BLEEDING AND INSENSIBLE. It was with great difficulty that Spelman prevented the enraged crowd from attempting still further vio lence to the prostrate officer, and to do this he found it necessary to draw his revolver. After Friel rocov sufficiently to be assisted along, Spelmin went ofl Mlth him a little distance, and got a couple of citizens to lake charge of him, and he was taken home to hU residence at the corner of Franklin and Van Baron street. In the meanwhile Officer Spelman had to run, and the roughs, after following him clear Into Myrtle ave nue, thinking probably they would escape detection, left him and went back to their companions In the avenue, who, with Murphy, separated and went to various saloons, but not nntll a squad of men from tbe Fourth came, with Acting Capt.

Campbell at their head, who ordered them to olear the atreet of any crowd and to arreBt disorderly persons. Dr. Kisaam was telegraphed for and he attended Friel, and according to his report the officer is injured Beriously. Ho had a severe cut at the hack of the head, and several bruises about his body. THE ABBESrS MADE.

After tho crowd had been dispersed Detective Carr and Officer Spelman, in plain clothes, went round the vicinity In search of the more prominent participants in tbe desault and rescue. Detective Carr found a well known and desperate rough, named Edward Mur phy, in Cullen's liquor store, at the corner of Tillary street and Hudson avenue, and, Spelman recognizing him, he was arrested after a desperate resistance Us was taken to the Station House and locked up. The officers went out again and succeeded in arresting the leader of the assault on Friel, ono John Kllmead, a desperate rowdy, aged twenty two. Beside him, Richard Harris and Edward Scott were taken in ona charge of resouing Murphy. Frlel is confined to hia house.

The prisoners are held for trial by Justice Biley. CITY MISSIONS. The annual meeting of the Brooklyn City MisBion and Tract Society was held last night in the Church of the Pilgrims, which was filled in every part. After the opening services, conducted by Rev. Drs.
