SOCIETY OF THE AMY OF THE P0T09A0. The Plane for the Reunion Dlscuused Before the Aldermanlc Committee.

Judge Advocate General Horatio 0. King and United States Marshal A. tt Tate appeared beforo tho Aldermanlc committee last evening and farther discussed the arrangements for the reception of the Society of the Army of the Potomac, in June next. There were present of the committee Aldermen Kane (chairman), Quintard, Collins and Bowers. General King said he thought he expressed the sentiments of the Decoration Committee and the Committee of Arrangements when he said that the Board oT Aldermen bad used them very generously and handsomely in the matter of the appropriation, and he thought with the contributions which are being received from tho citizens of Brooklyn, tho decorationa could bo made very elaborate, and the guests received and entertained in a sumptuous manner.

His Idea was that tho decora. Hons should bo In accordance with the plan previously agreed upon, to bo paid for out of the $1,000 approprl ated by tho city. Tho outside subscription list already amounted to about $0,000, and it was fair to aisumo that it would reach $10,000 or $12,000 beforo the end of the coming month. Ho did not think it necessary for the city to appropriate any more money. It would be Tho Effect of a Mohawk Dacca Tem per" Upon a Demure Hnabaud.

He said be would kill me in our bouse one night last week. We live on Third avenue, between Foniteenth and Fifteenth streets," she said. What have you to say, Mr. Banken 1" Justice Ber gen asked.

You seem to be both respectable, aud It is strange tbat such a charge should be brought against you at your time or life." Mr. Bankln demurely replied Your Honor, wo have, been married thirty three years, and bavo had many family quarrel, but it has been her fault. could get along with any one, and it Is too bad that I should bo brought here. Wo bad a quarrel and I may have lost my temper, but it was all on account of her Mohawk Dntch tongue and temper. It is rather too much for me it cuts in edgeways, and you know, Judge, whethor a man can stand a tongnoliio that and be as meek as a sheep all the lime." "You mean lamb," suggested his Honor.

"I don't care whether it is aboep or lamb, but when sne gets going a bear couldn't stand her," replied tho demuro gentleman. Mrs. Bankeo commenced talking In roply with a voiuoiiity tost gavo strong proof of tor husband's statement Justice Bergen administered a Bevere rebuko to both, At their time of life, he said, they ought to live peaceably together. He sympathized with Banken and dismissed the complaint, saying that he thought he had been punished sufficiently by his wife's sotlon and did not doubt that ho wonld have other selections from the Mohawk Dutch tongue," with variations, when he got home. Mrs.

Iiankon hurriedly left the court room. Her husband lingored until aho got out of sight Then be took a different route toward Third avenue. WASHINGTON A. Local Civil Service Investigation. General Slocnm's Championship of Captain E.

A. Perry's Claim to a Chief Clerkship in the Custom House Commencement of the Federal Building Site Investigation. Special to the Eagle. Washington, April 26. Secretary Folger has forwarded to the House the correspondence caUed for by General Blocum's resolution In reference to the alloged violation by Collector Robertson, in tbe New York Custom House appointments, of section 1,754 of the 'Revised Statutes.

The section referred to provides that honorably discharged soldiers and Bailors shall have preference over civilians in tho matter of appointments to Government positions. The correspondence in question has been occasioned by tbe fact that Captain E. A. Perry, well known In G. A.

B. circles in Brooklyn, failed to receive promotion to a chief clerkship in the CuBtom House. Fred. H. White, a Thirteenth Ward Republican, was, through Congressman James' influence, appointed chief of a Custom House division from the position of chief clerk.

A Civil Servico examination was ordered, and three men passed, among the number being Captain Porry, who had the lowest percentage. Bobertson recommended one of the others for the appointment. Captaiu Perry then called attention to the fact that under the statutes he should be preferred on account of being a soldier. When this fact was brought to the attention of Collector Bobertson he claimed that the law did not apply to tho case ol chief clerks, and considered it as a new appointment It was then that General Slocum agreed to demand a hearing for Captain Perry's claim. The official correBpondenco has been referred to the Committee on Reforming the Civil service.

The eub committee in cbarge of tho investigation of tbo Brooklyn Federal building Bito purchase, have undertaken to make tho inquiry behind closed doors. Architect Bell was before tho committee for an hour tbiB afternoon, during which time he was examined at length as to the connection between his visit to Brooklyn and his recommendation that tho Johnson street site bo selected for the building. He had all reports aud communications before him, and showed that no cheaper site had been offered or one that better combined the several requirements for a suitable building site. Correspondents woro excluded from the hearing, the sub committee voting to keep them out until the full committee has voted on the question whethor tho inves tigation shall be conducted with open doors or not. Secretary Folger has expressed a desire to appear be fore the committee, and he wiU bo accorded a hearing next week, providing bis engagements do not call bim from Washington.

A. C. Bull, who makes the charges, has been subpe naed for next week, and both Messrs. Moodv and Llab mann WiU be telegraphed for to appear on Monday. The sudden activity of tho committee lor by reason of Mr.

"How do matters stand just at present?" inquired the reporter. "There is virtually no change. We are anxious to go on as quick as possible, but there still remain some ob Btables." What are they 7" I dou't know, indeed." You said'somo time ago that you hoped to bo actively engaged in the work before this." I don't think I said that if I did I was Bpeaking without warrant." "When will the work commenco 7" "Beally I can't Bay as to that. You see I have nothinn to do in the matter of clearing tho way and making things ready for a start. That is tbo function of the Trustees, and as soon as they give me orders to proceed I will go forward, of course.

Immediately. As far as our side ia concerned there is no tinio being lost" "I suppose it Is stiU the fault of the elevated railroad company 1" Well, I suppose, it is."

Anything new regarding the compressed air system proposed to be introduced on Seventh ave nuo asked an Eagle reporter of President William Blchardson to day.

We know nothing whatever about it It Is not to be introduced by us." How will tbo Seventh avenue residents take to it 1" We do not know. The compressed air company propose to try it, and wo have consented to give thorn a chance. We have nothing whatever to do with it but they desire to show tho people of Brooklyn what they can do. They have obtained tbe consent of the Common Council to try it, and we will merely be onlookers." "Then you have no connection whatever with it" "None whatever. It is merely an experiment on the part of the company named, and does not interest us In the least; that is, at present." A reporter visited the office of the company, No.

80 Beaver street, New York, to day, but Mr. J. L. White, the president, was absent. Tho trial will bo made during tbe coming week.

MUNICIPAL. Railroad Third Travel Avenue. on To be Interrupted by the Extension of the Sewer What and Commissioner Fleeman gay About It. The Building Boom John Devlin's Gas Light Company Information for Movers. It looks now as if the City Baiiroad Company will be prevented from operating its steam dummy line on Third avenue, between Twenty eighth and Forty ninth streets, duriug tbe work of the exten sion of the Third avenue sewer.

It is a matter of immediate interest to a large numner of people who reside in tbat section of the city and who are compelled to use that road in g.ing and returning from business or other engagements. In fact, it is tbo only lino which connects that whole section from Greenwood to Fort Hamilton with the. means of travel to the center of tho city. Mr. Haizird, president of the railroad company, says tbat on week days the travel averages 3,000, wbUe on Sundays, in tbe Summer ttmo.lt frequently reaches 15,000.

The opening of the roadway of the avenue for the purpose of the work of extending the sewer will necessitate the removal of the railroad tracks. Mr. Hazzard has asked that tbe company be' given the privilege of laying and usidg a single track on one side of the avenue. Thus far it has been refused. City Works Commissioner Fleoman said to day that, under the law providing for the extension of the sewer, the entire control of the avenue was given to the city, which in turn gave it to Mr.

J. P. Crawford, the contractor for tho work. The railroad company bad no right to the street, and if it should not take up its tracks Mr Crawford could take them up at its expense. There, was no law to compel the city to reimburse tbe company for damages.

As the occupation of Fourth avenuo by a railroad was prohibited by law Mr. Hazzard had asked tbat the company be permitted to lay a single track at the side of Third avenne, in order that tbe traveling public of that Bectlon might not bo entirely deprived ot railroad accommodations. Contractor Crawford, so Commissioner Fleeman said, bad declared tbat he could not accommodate the com. psny wltbout a cost to bim of about $15,000 and causing him a great deal of inconvenience. Even if the company should be wiUIng to pay him ho should prefer to have them remain off the stroet.

Mr. Hazzard had offered, on behalf of the company, to pay half of the $16,000, but tbe Commissioner said he was advised by the Corporation Counsel that there was no authority in law for the city to pay anything out of the Third avenue sewer or any other fund. A gentleman connected with tho city government said: "The City of Brooklyn, in answer to a clamorous demand of the inhabitants in that section of the city, and after being mulcted in damages by suits on account of the failure to carry out the original plan of sewersge in that district, Ib now undertaking at great expense to carry forward the sewer on the plan originally designed. In doing this it is undertaking to meet a great pub 11a necessity, and tbe rights of private corporations and citizens must give way measurably to what tbe reasonable necessities of that improvement require. Consequently, tbe matters of difference between the City Railroad Company and the citizens with regard to facilities of travel duriug a tem porary interruption by tbat work must be settled between themselves.

The city has no reason to do any. thing further than to accommodate its public works as far as practicable to tbe necessities of both parties. If that necessarily involves an interruption to travel it is an unpleasant thing, but the inevitable result of carry, ing forward so large a public work." Mr. Crawford seems to be master of tho situation. The contract for the work was not submitted to the Law Department prior to its execution.

BEQUESTINO A VETO. Mayor Low has been requosted by the Memorial Committeo of tho G. A. it. to veto the aldermanlc resolution appropriating $500 toward tbo observance of Decoration day, May 30.

The Grand Army people say that tbe display of the flags at half mast will be sum. cient. John Devlin's gaslight company. John Devlin and ex Assemblyman Wren arepresi dent and secretary respectively of tho Equity Gaslight Company. The company has no works yet, but Messrs.

Devlin and Wren asked Commissioner Fleeman to day for a permit to open tho streots of the Eastern District for the purpose of laying pipe. Tbey said the company was organized in 1874. Mr. Wren said a site for the works had not been purchased, but negotiations were in progress. He thought tne works would be located probably in the neighborhood of Bushwick creek.

Ho was asked in what streets it was proposed to lay the pipe. His reply was tbat be did not know, as ho had not seen the engineer's plaus. Commissioner Fleeman said he must look into the matter before taking any action. It may bo of interest to kuow that Mr. Devlin, the president of the company, is tbe parly who figured prominently before the Senate committee a short time since in connection with tbe investigation of tho Department of Public Works of New Mr.

Wren is clerk of Justice Naeher's court. THE BUILDING BOOM. There were permits for 84 new buildings issued during the past week.

The moving season is npon us and the voice of the cartman is heard in the land. Probably the most interesting part of what he has to say is in relation to Us charges. What ho says and what the city ordinances say on this subject very often differ.

"For every additional half mile after tbe first half mile," a charge of one third more is aUowed. Complaints of over charge may be made at the Mayor's office. MARTIN LEDDY'S LOSS.

When Leddy came from tbe Penitentiary he discovered that a lot of books and pic ture frames were missing and Kane could not make a proper cosh return.

Leddy had Eane arrested on a charge of grand lar ceny, and Justice Bergen committed him yesterday without bail for examination.

Leddy agreed, to this, and Mrs. Wbalen was given until this morning to make good her word.

Kelly of the Third District having introduced a bill which if passed will make the offices of' Register, County Clerk and Sheriff of this County salaried offloes, at a salary of $10,000 yearly to each of tbe next Incumbents, an Eagle reporter to day called on the gentlemen now filling tha positions to obtain tbeir views of the matter.

Colonel Richards, the Begister, was the first official Interviewed, as follows You have read the despatch from Albany in last night's Eagle, which tells of the intentions of Mr. Kelly in reference to your office, have you not Yes but I have nothing to say on tbe matter." What is your annual income aa I would rather not Bay." Is It as much as $50,000 I don't care to toll what my fees amount to, but they are not near so great as 1b popularly supposed." "Will you be a candidate for re election if the bill flxi ng the Beglster's salsry at $10,000 yearly Is passed It is almost too early to speak of that as yet. It would cost almost a yesr'a salary, if the bill passes, to run a canvass for the office." Did you spend $10,000 In your canvass 1" No, not quite." How much did you spend 11 A considerable amount of money." Then the position will not be sought after as eager ly if it is a salaried one as it would be if the' emoluments wero fees 7" 1 No, I think not." 1 Is'nt $10,000 a liberal salary for tho duties of tho office IVeU, I'd rather not say."

A sheriff can't tell what his income is until he has been out of office for two years." Why?" "Because be is liable to be sued on Indemnity bonds and for errors in office." Bat he can't bo sued after be is out of office one year for any discrepancy in tbe office?" "No." Well, how much will Sheriff Stegman realize from his position 1" Tbat depends entirely on the business done In the courts. After be pays for the prisoners' food, the salaries of bis employes and the expenses of a horse and hire and drivers bo won't have more than $14,000 to himself each year." Then, if this bill passes, it will only lessen tho In come of tbe Sheriff $4,000 each gear?" You can't tell some years are good and others bad."

Whon will ho roturn to Brooklyn He may step in the office any' moment. His origi nal intention was to bo back by May 15, but be will, I think, be back sooner." Does he know tbat a receiver of bis property has been appointed 7" If he got my letter ho doea." "Do you think this bill will poss I do not. I think it is a constitutional office and tbat it cannot be made a salaried one.

If they fix the Balary at $10,000 who is to pay the employes 'Is the Sheriff to pay them out of the $10,000 7" The reporter acknowledged hiB ignorance as to whether he would or not, and asked How many persons does tho Sheriff smploy 7" "Eighteen, and there are fourteen regular deputy sheriffs.

It is not known whether he took an overdose before retiring last night, or suffered from an apoplec tic stroke. Physicians state that a diagnosis wotua nsrdly reveal enough in the ante mortem symptoms to enable them to arrive at a conclusion as to the real cause. This can only be re vealed Dy a post mortem examination, as the effects are apparently the same in a majority of cases. There was every reason to believe that tho smaller blood ves B.elsj5.

He was aged 43 years. For many years he bss been a promlnont resident of Brooklyn. When Winchester Britton was elected District Attorney he ap. pointed Henry Snell one of his assistants, and Mr. Snell occupied the position for three years.

When Gen. era! Catlln succeded Mr. Britton Mr. SneU retired, but continued the practice of law as a member of the firm of' Butler, Ely SneU.

An Exhibition by tbe Members of tbo Sewing Class Some Idea of tbe Work Being Done in OtUer Depart menu. Upward of 100 children assembled in the rooms of the Union for Christian Work Building, No. 18 Smith street, at 10 o'clock this morning, to witness an entertainment given to aigpallze tbe. cIobo of the sewing school term of the institution, which began in October last, The children sang songs which they had learned in the school, the Hisses Smith, of the choir ot the Church of the Saviour, played tho piano, and Mr. Edwin Read, an amatenr legerdemain performer, gave an exhibition of the art.

which be practices, he says, for fun." After an hour spent in the schoolroom the children were served with a lunch of cake and cream, and each one was presented with a potted flowering plant to cultivate, as a souvenir of tbe day. There were present a number of visitors, principally ladies, who are interested in the work or the Union which, during the school term just ended, has done successful work. The average roU in the sewing school has been about 170. The girls have been also Instructed in vocal muslo, in household work, and a general moral influence exerted over them. Mr.

Itobert Foster president of the Union, said to au Eaqle reporter "The work of tho institution has been very satisfactory. Wo havo. more applications than we can possibly accommodate. Our lease of these premise expires May 1, and wo must procure new and I hope more commodious quarters. We have eev.

oral locations in view, but have determined upon none at present. I wish yon would state In mentioning our work, tbat although tbe Union was established by a Unitarian organization. It is now wholly unsec tarian and exteuda its aid irrespective of creed or na. tiionallty. As a new feature we have to stimulate bab.

ts of economy in the ohildren, established a savings bank during the past year. One hundred accounts have already been opened, ranging in amount from ten cents to six dollars. We have, too, a kindergarten going on ot Plymouth Bethel, the church having kludly donated the use of the Bethel during week days this is In charge of an experienced teacher, one of the best in tbe couutry." Mr. William A. Butlor, a practical designer and artist, lias a class of young men under bis direction which has already shown encouraging results.

His pupils are sought after, and one has already attained much proficiency as a designer and engraver. Others ars making rapid strides toward perfection in tbo art. There aro about thirty pupils in this departmentr which reaches boys who are unable to attend tbe publio schools. They ore given academic instruction as well. In connection with this work Mr.

Butler has established a labor bureau which secured positions to 1,000 people last year, A frro library, which has loaned out COO volume in a single day, and a reading room are connected with tho Union and opened to all. There Is also a free cooking school which lies held its sessions each Saturday afternoon during the term, with instruction given to tbe pupils of tho sewing school by one of Miss Psrloa's geaduates. This school is a decided success. Mrs. Boggs, one of the ladles in charge, said to.

the reporter: "The children have evinced great interest in these lessons. Many of them cook little dishes at their homes and bring them here to have judgment passect upon them. And through the children wo have, the mothers inter, ested In better cooking, people whom wo could reach In ho othor way. hope soon to make this a free school to all who desiro 'its benefits, also to make of it a training shool for domestics." Tho Uuiou for Christian Work is sustained by contributions. It reaches a class who work in tho factories and stores, to whom it 1b the only means of train ing and moial education to which they bavo access.

Its work Is increasing steadily and it seems destined to become. one of most important institutions of the city at no far distant day. MONET MARKET. Tbe Bank Statement Imports for tbe Week Stocks Irregular. Witx, Bxbeet, April 26, 3.

He Still FaTors Arthur, but WiU Support Any Good Republican who May be Nominated The Free Trade Issue in the Approaching; Campaign Mr. Blaino Cannot in Any Erent Hare His Support. Robert T. Lincoln Beliered to be the Coming Han. Hev.

Henry Ward Beeohor was seen this morning at his residence by on Kaoxjs reporter, who was desirous of ascertaining how he regarded tho results of the TJtlca Convention, and its probable effect on the party and its Presidential aspirants. Being asked what ho thought tho outcome of the convention might be, Mr. Beecber said 11 1 have deferred saying anything upon this question until things bad somewhat settled down, and an estimate could bo formed with aomo accuracy aa to the outcome of the late convention, but I am now free to say tbat as regards this State it has in a measure killed off tho principal candidates." Do you think it lias had a like effect on the country?" This is what the politicians call a pivotal State, and what New York does this year must have an immense effect on tbe conntry." Doea it not practicaUy end Arthut's candidacy "I don't sco it in that light. Arthur is now, as hs has hitherto been, the first choice of the business men of tho couutry, and I believe with good reasou, aa they aro but following the Biblical advice and rewarding the faithful eervant. Tho strongest point about Arthur is IBlbUlUl Jg he came into the Executive cbair under peculiar untoward circumstances.

The country feared his at 'bat time, but tbe business interests are now satisfied, and not alone satisfied. with him, but neartuy leanul But the politic "frrffle do 016 nominating And the people, as a usual tblng, do tbe electing. and, I believe, will continue to do more of it and even in tbe near future take a band in the nominating." Viewing the question from tbe politician's stand point, don't you think that any candidate who cannot Bccuro even a bare majority of the delegation from his own State is not in a condition to go before the convention 7" I know no mora of these things than a cat does about tbe solar system. When a good Republican is nominated for any office I support him. If he does not come up to my standard, I support tbe best man running for that office.

I know absolutely nothing about combinations or deals and don't want to know anything about them." Do you think it were the part of wisdom among tbe Arthur managers to stiU push his candidacy My advice has never been asked on that point by those having the President's interests in charge, cor do I think that I am qualified to advise on it." Would yon support Mr. Blaine if he were nomlnst ed?" 'I would not Without analysing the publlo ser vices of Mr. Blaino or making any invidious or disparaging distinctions between him and the other candidates prominently mentioned I would say this That i have no Bympatby with, and would not support any candidate whoso sources of income havo been the money centers and monopolies of tbe country, nor would I counsel tbe nomination of such a man by either party. I cannot reiterate my sentiments on the subject of Mr. Blaine's candidacy too strongly.

His nomination would be a public calamity and Mb election a national disgrace. You will, however, understand that, personally, I believe Mr. Blaine to be an excellent man but as a polltloian bia sun has set, and be may now devote himself entirely to the literary labor in which he so much delights." In the event of tho nomination of a high Protection ist at Chicago by tho Republicans, what would your course be?" It would be guided entirely by circumstances. There are a thousand considerations that would in fluence me entirely independent of the free trade issue." You do not, then, consider it a 'burning question?" On the contrary, it is of such a highly inflammable nature that tbe Democrats are afraid to catch hold of it." "But don't you think that tbe free trade Republi cans owo it to their principles to support Mr. Morrison in his present fight to tbe best of their ability?" 'Ahey aro doing it, but when it comes to a question of leaving tbe Republican party (which, whatever its faults, has always been a psrty of principles, and in earnest In inforclng them) when I say it comes to a question of leaving that party for the miserable conglomeration of fighting factions that is known aa the Democratic rarty, I must havo a surer foothold and a brighter outlook before I undertake the journey." How do you regard tho of free trade as a dividing lino between parties There are honest men and staunch free traders in both parties, and I don't doubt that tbo Republican party, hitherto always abreast, if not ahead of the times, can bo educated up to the standard of free trade.

But tho miserable minority in the Democratic party who, because they can not now, as they have hitherto done, drape the mantle of jirotection round the monop olist, and are Intent only on ruining their own ration, deserve the severest censure of all honest men. However, thts is but another instance of the want of cohesion and lack of that force that comes from actual leadership, bo clearly apparent among tbo Democrats. That party has great Btatesmen, men fit to lead tho GreekB at Thermopylro, but their following Is as wretch. ed as the rabble that composed the Persian rout on that day, or the mob tbat followed Jack Falstaff." "If tho Democrats nominated for President a revenue reformer, known of all men to bo such, would you sup. port him "I do not care to answer hypothetical questions.

What I would or would not do under tho circumstances, is unknown to me now, and would bo tbe result of mature thought and deliberation. What guarantee Is there that even if a Free Trader, a true Israelite, in whom there was no guile were nominated, that he could secure even a decent following in bis own party, or the hearty support of the most prouounced.free traders within tbe organization? They elected Mr. Carlislo Speaker with great flourish of triumph, but their coun sels since have been as Bounding brass and their per formances tinkling cymbals. And not at all harmoni ous either. Do you see any special significance in the election of three Free Tradors in the delegation at large from Uiica?" "I see in it evldenco that our party is rapidly grow ing and expanding in the right direction.

It is but an additional fact to prove what I have always asserted, that the Republicans can be taught what is right tbe Democratic party is unteachable." What is the present outlook for Arthur and the other candidates Senator Edmunds has had the best of the flgLt. He is a good, clean man, whom I would support with right heartiness if he were nominated." But don't you think bis very prominence at this time will in some manner bar his way to greater prominence In a measure, yes. He was a dark horse to this Jime. He now is a favorite and in the killing off pro cess which I before adverted to, It Is possible tbat be will go with tbe rest." "Then you think that a "dark horse will win?" "Everything favors thot view of the situation;" Could j'ou say with any feeling of cortaijrty whew the Republican nomination will go Robert Lincolu is, I think, the coming man." Would you support him If he were nominated I would be among his staunch. est adherents.

He is a sensible man, the son 01 a great lather, not without good parts in himself, though not brUliant, yet clever, and highly re Erected," DEATH CAUSED BY ARSENIC. Tbe Suicide of a Handsome Ifouitg Wo man New YorH. Huttie Mitchell, a handsome young married woman, aged 22 years, was found dead in her room at No. 237 Ludlow street, this morning. Deputy Coroner Messenior learned that hor death was due to arsenio, taken with suicidal intent.

Mrs. Louisa Klober. with whom the deceased boarded, deposed that Mrs. Mitchell had lived with her sinco last Monday. Tho deceased had often Bpokon of her husband, Charles P.

Mitchell, who, she said, was a photographer. She seonied greatly troubled because be bad deserted her, and sho' bad no money to pay her board. Last Thursday she began vomiting. Mrs. Kleber sent for policeman and a police surgeon, who said that sho had poisoned horself.

Tho deceased denied this statement. Her death occurred at 3:30 o'clook this morning. Among her effects was a post office order for $12 aud a certificate of insurance in the New York Safety Reserve Fund, at No. 215 Bowery. It wa? dated April 2i, 1884 But ten cents hod been paid on it.

Tho mother in law of the deceased slated that hor Bon had deserted his wife because she had had an illigiti mate child in Poland, and had lived an irregnlar life here. She was married by Mr. Konig, pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran Church. Her huabaud was from Philadelphia. Au attempt had been made to have her husband arrested lor abandoning her.

THE OBSERVANCE OF THE SABBATH. Sbali Hebrew and Clirlvtian Have a Common May ot Worubip 1 Eev. Dr. L. Wintnor lectured last evening at Temple Beth Elobini, Heap street, on tbe question Shall tho Jews Keep Sunday?" Tho Doctor went back to tbo origin of the Sabbath institution, which heregarded as having been anterior to tho time of Moses, and, possibly, Syrlac.

Moses accommodated it to the Jewish religion. At first it was a day when all were enjoined to cease from labor. The non obser vauca of it as sucb, was, among the ancient Hebrews, a capital offense. As a day of rest it wasaelvil Institution. The religious character was afterward acquired by it.

Tho old rabbinical laws for its observance, bow over, were not now regarded as binding. In its two fold character, as a day ot rest and a day of worship, it was but partially observed. Its observance as a day of rest was not very strict. He then showed tbe disadvantages under which Hebrews labor in having not only to observe tholr own Sabbath, but, in offect, to observe the Christian Sabbath also, and asked whence was tbe authority for having the Sabbath on the first day of the week, showing that among Christians themselves tuoro was a want of unanimity on this point, while the Hebrews; having authority on their eide, were unanimous in holding that Saturday should be Sabbath. What measures could be employed to bring it about tbat Hebrews and Christians shall have a com mon day of worship As yet to anticipate such an event might aeent Utopian, but America was a land of wonders.

Congress this moruipg considered the special order, feeing tbe bill to reniovo certain burdens on the American merchant marine and encourage the American foreign carrying trade After tho reading of the report Mr. Slocum, of New York, was awarded tho floor.

Our navigation laws, he aid, like those relating to the militia, had not been changed in the post century. They were to day just what they were eighty years ago. For fifty years they tiad been precisely the same as those of England. Thirty years ago England had modified her laws and her commercial marine had increased vastly from that modification, and the bill under consideration proposed to make our laws somewhat similar to tho changes made by England. Tho subject had attracted the attention of the people, and this measure was intended simply to sweep away some old lawB which ship owners, Bhip masters and the merchants of the country agreed ahould be eradicated from the statute books.

It con. tained no provision which was not unanimously recommended by the Shipping Committee, and as if It wero to pasB it must pass to day ho would not detain tbe Honso with any further discussion. Mr. Douster, of Wisconsin, supported the bill. He pictured the decadence of American commerce, and said that tbe remedy must be found In tbe adoption of a wise and judicious line of legislation inspired by the necessities of a great people ready and able to avail themselves of tho lessons taught by tbo progressive powers of civilization.

Tho pending measure contained many amendments looking to the revision of the navigation laws. It W83 necessary to confront tbo defects la those laws and to strip off the fungus growth which bad come with the passage of time, in order that a wiser legislation might adapt.itsolf to the changed con. fltion of afiiairs.

P. Barnard for defendant, Dana Clarkson, THE CABLE HO AD SCHEME. Idr. Ludwigr Scinlor Voices the Opposition of Twenty fourth Ward Residents. Mr.

Ludwig Semler, one of the committee of five appointed on motion of Supervisor Groany to wait upon tho Railroad Committee in the interests of tho Twenty fourth Word citizens, said this morning that in moking a canvass of the ward ho had found a strong opposition to the carrying out of tbe cable road scheme as now projected by its originators. "The Twenty fourth Ward people," he said, "would liko to see the road commenco work at East New York instead of at South Ferry. Then we would be convinced that Itichardson, Corbin and company were really working for the interests of tho people as well as their own. There is a strong end growing impression in tho Twenty fourth Ward that tbiB whole cable scheme is simply aeloak under which the Long Islaud Railroad Co. means to oxtoud its line to South Ferry, and thus capture the whole of Atlantio avenue from ono end to tbo other, which would be one of the greatest outrages ever perpetrated upon a city.

If tbo Cable Company will even commence work at both ends of their routo at once, tho Twenty fourth Word people will support it hoartily, as there is nothing tbey desiro more than to seo an honest rapid transit pushed through which will bring the large blocks of property in tho ward within reasonable distance of the center of the city."

Two actions were picked out, upon which argument was People ex rel Philip Schmidt, agalust the Commissioners of Excise and Peoplo ex rel James F. Meakini.

Eaoh case involved threo different actions, namely, mandamus, certiorari and on injunction. Tho point at issue was whether the Exrise Commissioners baveau absolute discretion in the grant ng of licenses or whether their action is reviewable by a Superior Court. Judge Pratt held that discretion was absolute, and tbat tho action of tho Commissioners cannot bo reviewed. Ho denied tbe six applications without costs. This decision will be very unpleasant news to some five hundred unlicensed dealors, who have been anxiously waiting the result of tho litigation.
