Paisrs, better known as "Johnny," was a oativa or Rotterdam, and was nnmarried.

Ooroaar rtaDaaan, of New Terk, last night iarnad a parnut for tha removal of tba body to the late raatdanoa of tha nufortu- to be soundly attended to, by muscular mammas. The fundamental maxim underlying our institutions is that which deolares the inalienable right of all American citizens to make' fools ot themselves In their own Way, so long as they do not thereby injure their neighbors. It has been thought by some that the Communion it lunatico in-guirendo provision was expressly designed by the Fathers to exempt old gentlemen and yonng ladies from the benefit 01 thiaaot, but the best authorities on Constitutional law, including Kent, Storey, and Wheaton, agree that this is a mistaken assumption. Accord ing to these authorities an oldfool-wa bega thousnna pardons, a gentleman of kdvnnoed years and youthful sensibilities, wo mean bas a perfect right, uudjr the Constitution, to wed the youngest and prottiost Thai money can secure; and young lacTioS who re gard a wsnoueoj puree as me nignesi in ducement a wooer can offer, are at liberty to place their own price upon their charms and make the best bargain they can. Therefore, the silly little with the tin horns, were not only foolish, but they were very wioked, end as we have said, they should receive palutary lesson that the Constitution of the United States oannot be subjected to a tin born serenade with impunity.

As for the rejected sutor, who has poured the sad story of his wrongs into the expan Eive ear of Justice, the public, while sympathizing with his sorrows, will be inclined to smile at his claim for pecuniary damages. There have been sensible young men similarly situated, who, after consoling themselves with the reflection that they had made a fortunate escape from marriage with an unworthy spouse, have proved the truth of the homely maxim that the sea yet con-tains as good fish as ever have been en snared in the net. Eveu the disconsolate hero ot Locksley Hall, bewailing the incon stancy of his spider-hearted cousin and dreaming of wedlock with a thick-lipped but faithful Ujijian, did not seriously contemplate a breach of promise suit against the lost Object. Nor do we think that Mr. Lewis will persevere in bis action, when the first sting of bis cruel disappointment has subsided.

Time will prove a better solace to his grief than the six cents that might be awarded him, amid the ridicule of the public. Poor Mr. Lewis has not yet forgotten how he loved his lost adored one. He thinks now that he has lost five thousand dollars' worth of girl, but as the days pass on and the smi'es of other lassies descend like balm upon his wounded spirit, the value of his faithless May will gradually diminish in his eyes. This is inevitable, even so far as he is personally concerned how probable then it must be that to an unappreciative and stony-hearted jury six cents should seem a sufficient equivalent for oil he lost when bis sweetheart jilted him I Let Mr.

Lewis remember that he is not the first "Jock" who has been discarded when Donald found an opportunity to display bis wealth and explain that be was "only three score and two." Ot course he has a right to go. to law if he likes, and spread his love letters through the news papers for the delectation of an amused pub- he, but if he does, he may bare cause to regard himself as the champion fool of the comedy, Me, William Bbowkk, of Fourth and South Fourth streets, has a novelty connected with his hotel in the shape of a garden on the second floor where persons can command a full view ot fourth street without txing seen, and during tbe warm weather enjoy a cooling breeze. The inclosure ia covered with a canvas awning and Burroucded uy a wire screen. When all the ar rargemente are completed it is the intention of air. Browne to invite bis friends to pay him a visit atd paes judgment npon his "new idea." Tbe trustees of the greater number of Brook lyn churches will breatbe caMtr to-day, having learned that Governor Robinson has vetoed Senator Pierce's bi'l taxing church property, in all cases where tbe church edifice is for tbe purposes of giving entertainments.

For another year at least, tbe cheap and exoellent entertainments wbich bare done so much to cultivate a taole for refined amusements among tbo people, will be continued without fear or favor. The atory of tbe youog lady whs yesterday pursued a pickpocket in a butcher's cart, captured blm and afterwards ministered to the wants of himself and his family, when she found they were snffering from tbe most extreme want, shows that notwithstanding tbe enervating influences of modern luxury, there are still ladies who are not wanting in stamina, in pluck, end iu kindness ot beait Her name was Mis Lulu Prange. Tbe terrible death wbich overtook Lieutenant Totten on the line of the New York Central near Cold Spring, is only another lUnstration of the necessity of a law inflicting a severe penalty on every man, woman or child found walking on a railroad.

rvimmeii ana Bpringer. THM fB3BIDEHt'B ZIILB. The House of yesterday by a vote of 234 to 14, decided to accept the the less harmful alternative presented by Mr. Stephens in bis famous letter to Clark' son N. Potter, and practically pronounced the Potter Investigation a contemptible farce.

A resolution offered by a Republican member from Illinois, declaring that the title ot President Hayes and Vice President Wheeler bad been legally setHed by the Forly.fourth Congress, that no subsequent Congress bad any power to revise the action ot that Congress, and any attempt to do so would be revolutionary, was adopted by a vote of 234 to 21, and the majority report of the Judiciary Committee on the Kimmell bill, declaring that there is no power in any Congress or court or tribunal to reverse the decision which made Mr. Hayes President and Mr. Wheeler Vice President, was carried with but fourteen dissenting votes. This sound constitutional declaration, com ing with such emphasis from a House in which the political opponents ot the dmin- istration have an effective working majority, disposes at once and forever of the outrageous, unconstitu tional and revolutionary heresy that the legal declaration of the result of Presidential election may be reversed at the whim of an accidentaf party majority in a subsequent Congress. How far the majority In the House of Representatives was influenced by the practical collapse of the Potter investigation may be inferred from the con trast between the vote by which Mr.

Bui chard's resolutions were adopted yesterday and the failure of the milder declaration, offered by Carter A. Harrison, a Western Democrat, after the adoption of the Potter resolutions, to the effect that the House had no purpose to impugn the validity of the President's title. The pressure of public opinion, also, had un doubtedly much to do towards securing this dearable change in the sentiment of the House. The Potter resolutions took the country by surprise, but since their adoption it has become plain to the narrow est comprehension that their passage vrai. in a party sense, the crowning error of the session.

A few extrema Tilden organs in and around New York, hae been prompt to endorse and applaud thef blunder, and to urge the House to follow it up by its logical consequence, but the common sense of the nation has condemned it in the most em-phatio terms, the wiser Democrats recog nizing in the letters of Key and Stephens, and the action of the Harrisburg. Convention, the only position that could redeem their party from overwhelming defeat in the approaching Congressional election. The true leaders of the Democratic party are suf ficiently well skilled in constitutional law to understand how antagonistic to the spirit of our institutions are the Mexicanizing schemes of the Tilden clique, and they are sufficiently clear-sighted to see how earnestly the country longs for peace, and how wide spread and vigorous is the popular determination to stamp out of existence the incen diaries who would revive the heated passions of the Presidential controversy, and even run the risk of civil war, rather than let slip a single chance of bettering their personal fortunes. The action of the House yesterday puts the Democratic party right again, but it comes too late to undo all the mischief that has been done to the party. The country has escaped too narrowly from revolutionary turmoil and havoc to plaoe undue confidence in a party that has shown how liable it is to be led astray at the bidding of factious intriguers.

The position which the Times has stead'iy maintained from the outset is more than justified by the vote of yesterday. Bight here where from the pressure of obvious Vocal considerations, the Tilden influence is perhaps stronger than in any other part of the United States, stronger than in New York itself, the course of the Times has been subjected to some criticism, but the Democrats in Congress themselves have, by an overwhelming majority declared that the Times wss right. In he discussion of publio questions, it is our constant aim to leave partisan and personal considerations out of sight as far as possible, and to be guided solely by thedemandsof justice and the highest publio interest, and we have reason to believe that the intelligent pubho understands this. The most misleading and dangerous maxim that can be adopted by newspapers or individuals is that which has been so popular in times past "Our party, right or wrong;" and it is a good sign for the country, a good sign far the parties- themselves, Jha. news, papers which refuse to adopt suoh a cry are so many and so influential, and supported by such large and intelligent constituencies.

While such newspapers exist and flourish, through the support of the best elements of contending need be no fear that either individual ambition, party violenoe or class jealousies will attain to sufficient influence to plunge the Union in the horrors of revolutionary strife rflaf UBDDisa. It was undoubtedly very foolish and very naughty of the had Utile boys with tin boras to make hideous the nuptial dreams of Mr. and Mrs. Dominick on Thursday night. It was foolifih, because, if intended as a punishment for any imagined offence, it overwhelmed the innocent with the guilty.

Mr. Dominick may have acted wickedly in offending the sense of propriety of the little boys and taking a young and bloom ing bride to solace his declining years Mrs. Dominick may also have committed a heinous offence in deciding that she could be happier with a bridegroom of mature Jears and ample means than with a younger but comparatively penniless husband, but the lanooent dwellers in the Thirteenth Ward who were- compelled to share their punishment had certainly done nbthing to merit snob a fate. If the propriety-avenging boys had taken care to provide a megaphone ot soma sort, whereby they could have poured the concentrated dissonanoa of their horns into the ears ot the bride and bridegroom alone, their action might have been ess open to criticism, but as it was they far transcended any possible folly on the part ot the especial objects ot their serenade by the torture they inflioted npon thousands ot deserving oitiaena. But the calathumpian little, boys were TLAJmo hotual ursDBAaca ooatraav BEWlOBay ornca.

One word tabro. "Tho flobl of Brooklyn bssbeeh increased by nearly six millions in order to buikl this Whether It Will be a financial snocess is at to be determined.

But One-thing we do know and that is, that the burthsnon thpeppl-rts almost greater than they esq bear, Whatever money has yet to oe 'borrowed1, should be borrowed at a rata of interest -not exoeeding five pet and fast as the city debt can be refunded it should be done at the same rate. The National Government can borrow all the money it wants at four and four and a half per cent. The credit of Brooklyn is good why should it not borrow at the same rate In this there is great re lief for the taxpayers, if the city authorities will accept our suggestion. SAPBTHA OS EXHIBITION A grand scene was presented on Thursday evening in the garden grounds surrounding the mansion of Mr. A.

S. Barnes, the philanthropic and publio spirited publisher, located on Clinton, Waverly and Atlantic ave- nues. It was the second annual garden party given for the benefit of the Brooklyn Diet Dispensary, a useful public charity is which prominent and publio spirited citizeus nave greatly and very properly interested them-selves. Among those who have taken an active part in promoting this worthy objeot are Mr. Francis B.

Fisher and wife the well known Alderman of the Twenty-third Ward, and now President of the Common Council of this city. On Monday last Mr. Fisher left his seat in the Common Council Chamber, and, calling Aldotinan O'Roilly to assume the chair, he took the floor, and delivered a most eloquent oration on the excellence of naptwa gas, desoaot-inii in most fitting ptoasfe on the virtues nd public-spirited enterprise of the distin guished ex-Senator, John W. Coe, who, solely for the public good and on strictly humanitarian grounds, was devoting himself to the advancement of the new and grand illuminator of the future, naphtha gas. Our reporter, being limited to a given spice, and evidently regarding this speech as all stuff didn't report it.

We have chided him for this neglect, and charged him particularly never to omit so important a speech here after. Well, it appears that Mr. and Mrs, Fisher took an active part in the garden party, and among the other exhibits made, were three naphtha lamps, under the special care of ex-Senator John W. Coe. Our re porter quietly and in a considerate way referred to this display in these words A BRILLIANT APPKABANCX.

Ex-State Senator J. W. Coe contributed h(e ahare to the general Ulumioation by placing three of bil naphtha lampa on the grounds, and at times he explained the modus operandi of the machines to small andiencea of interested spectators. The Eaglt reporter, evidently regarding this display as of extra importance, gave the following account of this part of the entertainment A CH AH ACTXBTBTIC EXHIBITION. Borne surprise was occasioned among the company, aa well as the committees, by the Introduction of three street lampa, containing the naphtha burning fluid, into UMipark, evidently for the purpose of ad-ratlauig It.

The lampa were in a bunch on the ter-lace a Menoe of Mr. Baraea. They bore he following large placard i ExAAfrjn Tarn riAraxHA Laic p. That Wk Ovfeb to Fubhish fob 22 Pib Veab. TaEOnrn Now PATnra 435.

Mr. John W. Coe- the agent for the gas, explained its merits to a number of curious observers. Alderman Fisher, one of the Committee of Arrangements, reancsted the writer not to mention the exhibition of the placard and the lamp. He said the advertisement had been put up without the knowledge or ooa-sent of the Committee and it was beet not to say anything about it for fear some one would be offended.

Now, if it were not for the last words in the fofe'ssccount of this affair, we should be free to give Alderman Fisher most unlimited praise for promoting this naphtha exhibition on this occasion. Even as it is, though Mr. rusher betrays an unusual degree of timidity, after what ha did on Monday last, we must accord to the Alderman of the Twenty-third the credit of a good motive in encouraging this display in his Ward and among his own constituents. Alderman Wisher knows by this time that this naphtha business has undone not ouly an ex-Senator, but it has put three or four of our Eastern Distriot Al dermen in a ticklish situation. If, in the new bids for lighting our streets, Coe, as the agent for the Naphtha Company, should insist upon bidding only for the Williams- burgh district, the Eastern District Aldermen would have to vote against it to a man, or else go to the wall and be undone forever.

Fisher, in a spirit of bravery every way com mendable, and desiring to extend the area of the bids, commends this illuminator to his own constituents and thus tries to do what he can to save the Eastern District Aldermen from their unfortunate dilemma. He- is acting upon our advice, showing his faith by his works, trying to get the naphtha for his own Ward, and thus to save his friend Coe from the necessity of "drawing out" without that $30,000 and at the same time saving our Eastern District Aldermen from the dan. gerous necessity of voting naphtha as an experiment upon the Eastern District, at our local expense, and exclusively for' the benefit of the other sections of the city. Now, really, we cannot but conunena Mr. Fisher's course for thus trying to save his friends.

They are all in a bad hole, and if they can be got out we shall be glad'to have them saved, and we will do all we can toward helping in this matter the only condition we impose is this that naphtha be not inflicted as a ruinous experiment and exclusively upon this part of Brooklyn, and that if naphtha be used at all anywhere in this city, the price of $23 per lamp be not exacted, as that would be a flagrant act of publio robbery in broad daylight, as at the highest the light is not worth over nine or (en dollars per lamp. With these exceptions we. go for the naphtha gas for the Western District Wards with all our heart and soul. Tbi Hon. H.

M. Bliss is so sound on the Wallabout Market project, and, indeed, on all purely local questions, that hundreds of his Constituents an to-day puzzling their brains to understand how ha could-'go as tar astray as to allow his name to fled a plaoe among the fourteen would-be revolutionists. We are Inohned to think it was all a mistake. Mr. Bliss is about the last man In ilia world to posture a la Carbonaro as a revolutionist i he has too big a stake tn the country to take stock In Incendiary plots.

That she caonot be accused of beiba a mnrdereBS Is certainly do fault of her emu, for it la not often that such a nanow escape from death as tbat of her mother, Mrs. Ellen Oarr, Is place! on recird. Tha poliiw tourd cnntuburalila diffienlty ta getUag at tbe facts of tbe case, though they soon learned eufficlmt to Justify not only the arrest of the girl but alto of Mrs. Jane Orowu as a witness. All ot tbe parties mentioned reside In Hudson avenue, their apartments being of the moat squalid description, and presenting aa much evidence of dissipation as tbe external appearance of tbe occupants themselves.

Early yesterday morning Mrs. Grown paid A NEIQBBOBLT VIJIT to Mrs. Oarr and a few sociable drinks were indulged in, the daughter disponing of her share of the liquor with the ease and regularity of a veteran. The consequences were that by noon all parties were more or leas Intoxicated and aa csual tbe spree wound np in a fight. Outside attention to the disturbance however, was not attracted, the other residents of tbe house looking upon a squabble as a matter of course and faying but little heed to the agonize 1 cries which for a few momenta were heard and which aron subsided.

At half past three o'olock the police were notified that something serious had occurred at No. 140 Hudson avenue, and an officer was sent to Investigate the matter. He made his way into Cart's kitchen where a hocking spectacle met bis gaze. Tables and cbairs were strewn around in crofusion, but tbe moat forcible evidence of a struggle was found on Mrs. Oarr herself.

The ill-fated woman was stretched at full length on the floor WITHOUT A 8IOW OV LIFE. A stream of blood had flowed from Khastlv look- log wounds on tbe forehead nntil it had formed a large pool on tbe floor, and from the fact tbat It was nearly dry It was evident tbat she ha4 lain in tbat position for several hours. Believ ing inat sne was aeaa me oracer nnrrieaiy returned to tbe Station House and notified the captain, who telegraphed for the ambulance surgeon. Dr. Cochrane.

When tbnt pbysician arrived he found that lira. Oarr was still alive, and by frequent injeotions of morphine tie managed to restore her to consciousness. Bhe was carried to the City Hospital, the daughter and Mrs. Crown being taken into oustody. The latter stated tbat tbe former bad quarreled with her mother about money matters, and had beaten ber npon tbe bead with a cup, lnbUcting the wounds already spoken of.

At the Hospital lira. Oarr said that she had fallen against the stove, bnt this did not save the daughter, who was held by Justice Walsh to await tbe result of ber mother's injuries. Mrs. Orown was detained as a witness. St John's B.

The terrible bridge aooident by which one man was killed outright, another fatally mangled and three other injured more or less seriously, was the tragedy of which all men talked yesterday. It Is not alone the death of Henry Supple, whose feats of dar-ins in connection with the laying of bridge cables have made him famous all the world oyer, nor the wounding of his three fellow workmen, though these events are sad enough, that have so excited public- atten tion. The fact is, try to disguise it as we may, public confidence in the bridge and the men who are building it, has received a seven shock.

We have been repeatedly assured by the directors and trustees of the Bridge that it has been made strong enough to bear the weight they have calculated it would be required to sustain. Hitherto the erection ot this cioantio structure has been wonderfully free from accidents. Yet here we have one of the cables snapping asunder when in the process ot being laid, under a tension twenty-five tons less than that which the oaloulated it could sustain. The trustees have told us that the engineers engaged in the work are so thoroughly competent, and that their tests and calculations have been made with such minute aocuraoy, that there waB no possibU. llj ot their being mistaken and that any conclusion it which they arrived might be accepted with the most implicit confidence.

It may be presumed that the cable which broke yesterday and all its attachments were submitted to this minute testing process, and yet it snapped asunder when subjected to a comparatively slight tension. It does not seem to be yet fully determined whether it was the cable itself that broke, or one of its wire attachments. However this may be, nothing will satisfy the people but the most thorough and searching exam ination Into the causes oi uus acciaent, ana the application of every test known to science, to the whole structure. When consider the precious human lives that will be intrusted, to this bridge ot wire ropes, it is surely not too much to say that no attempt should be made to shield the guilty, whether of negligenoe or ignorance, if any suoh there be, in searching for the oause of this fatal aooident. A tremendous responsibility rests tjboo those who are conducting this enterprize.

The difficulty of making correct tests is increased thousand-fold by the fact, there is no existing basis upon whioh to make The longest span in any suspension bridge ever built in the world up to the time of the erection of the Brooklyn Bridge, was from one thousand to eleven hundred feet Up to that length the amount of tension a wire will bear, can be calculated with infallible accuracy because it has been submitted to actual experiment. Now, the span ot the Brooklyn Bridge is sixteen hundred feet five hundred feet longer than the longest bridge ever built. The tension in the wire increases in the ratio of a geometrical progression as its length increases. That is, supposing tha tension in a single foot of wire to be a fixel quantity, this quantity must be multiplied by a certain number for the next foot added, the result multiplied by the same quantity for the hext foot and so on ad infinitum. When not merely the tension in a single wire but the tension in a complex system of wires must be taken into aocaunt and when to this must be (tided the calculation of the superincumbent weight this system of wires will bear, the problem becomes one of the most intricate and diffioult that ever exercised human ingenuity.

In view of the terrible accident of yesterday which must have been the result either of a mistake in the calculations or negligence in the tests, is it too much to ssk not only that the causes which led to this accideiy should be thoroughly and impartially investigated, but that the whole system of wires should be submitted to a re-testing with all the appliances with which soienee is acquainted. There is another matter in connection with the bridge to which we desire to call the attention of the. trustees. The elder Boebhng, who planned and partly executed the bridge, stated in the most explicit terms that it would not be possible to SB cats on the bridge axoent on rails six feet apart, as with a narrower track there would be imminent danger of the cats being blown over during the stormy winds that often prevail in this climate. Mr.

Boebling's opinion has been confirmed by several expenonoed engineers, retinitis faoe of opinions, rendered by the most eminent experts Jn this country, the trustees and director hum decided to adopt the ordinary street ca guage of four feet eight and one-half inches. In doing this the trustees have taken the responsibility of satting aside the conclusions of these eminent engineers, and adopting a lsn oeitainly more remunerative because rtjjgiaj of tooojjplishment and of adaptability to existing of travel, but not safe In the opinion of tnoM who ought to know beat. Were th irntae justified in adopting this course If tiiCv have discovered that Mr. Boeblins's- Calcu lations were wrong with regard to so simple a matter as the guag, of a railroad track, vhire is our assuranoe that he was right in matters infinitely more complicated and in-tiicate? This matter must be explained. Either Mr.

Boebhng was wrong or the trustees were wroco. Mr wrong how shall we plaoe confidence iu his theories according to whioh the Bridge has beboim was right and the trustees an wrong, then they have been guilty of deoMing upon a plan which may any day burl thoaaaooj ot their fellow citi-ens Into eternity. Let them explain. write thus, set from anv enlrit of h- tajt, to the bridgemtapa, nor to the men whoancDnduotinsntiina aii- i we deerr to see the bridge amooeas.
