COUNTY HATTERS. TO HOUSES FUnitlSIIKf). POLITICS. BLOODSHED. OTOMTttl A BLACK FIEND.

IMPOSTOR CAUGHT. The Tricks TTliiu Were Played Upon Several E. D. Storekeepers. Detective Brady made a good arrest in effecting tho capture of a confidence operator who has victimized a number of storekeepers in tho Eastern District.

So far as known, tho individual referred to, haB tried his arUlicca upon four tradesmen, and it is probable that as many more may safely be countol upon to be heard from on Blmilar transactions. James A. Devoe la the nemo given by the prisoner, against whom the first complaint waB pref errod by Fred. Knlt zor, a butcher located at No. GS1 Broadway.

From him Dovoe on Thursday obtained twelve shillinms' worth of beef, arranging at the same time to have a larger quantity of corned meat sent to the address of a bogus Dr. Smith, corner of Union avenue and South Third street. Another person duped was Henry Weisbauer, cigar dealer at No. 177 Scholes street, from whom the accused obtained samples on trial. Devoe said ho desired to purchase two or more boxes of a good brand of cigars, for personal ubc.

To Joseph Winnet, who is In the some business aa Weisbauer, and located at No. 300 Floyd street, Dovoe represented that he intended opening a cigar Btoro on Myrtle avenue. On this pretense, ho induced Winnet to part with samples to the value of fifty cents, with THE CENSUS. All tho Returns Filed in County Clerk's Office. The last of the census returns have boen filed In tho County Clerk's offioe, and tho business is oompleted.

There has been somo consldorablo dolay with two of tho distriots, tho first and third of tho Fifth Word. All the othor districts of tho oity were handod In long ago, and were publiehod in Ihe Eaoli. Tho two missing districts wore estimated in the result thon given, and tho corroct returns do not materially alter the grand total of tho city's population. Tho population or tho Fifth Ward now stands aB follows Flnt District 15 Seoond Dlatrlot i "070 Third District 1970 Fourth DUtriot a'fis Fifth DUtrlot IjaS Sixth District SSSJ Sovonth Distriot 1320 Eighth Distriot 2874 Ninth District s'aiS Total Ysi3 ThiB makes tbo total population of tho City of Brooklyn 482,637, bnt lt is thought by many peoplo that fully 12,000 wore not countod. Tho census was takon at a time in the year when many peoplo were out of tho city, and many othors wero missed, so that tho entire population may safely be estimated at 500,000.

torial nomination on tbe Republican ticket. His political opponents asoribe cowardice to him in this re epeot, and aoouso him of hankering after tho Assembly nomination again, but there is no merit In these charges, as he will not under any clroumstancea take the Assembly nomination, whatever may be determination as to tho Senatorship, He will be forced to take the nomination, if possible. For the Senatorsbip on the Democratic side, there seems to be considerable difference of opinion. There are those who believe that Oakley can beat Prince, and those of contrary opinion. Henry A.

Beeves, of Suffolk, is deemed the strongest man on tho Domocratio side, but ho la opposed by the Jamaica ring because he refused to indorse one of the leaders. The nomination belongs to Suffolk, and if sho claims it and is refused, the nominee may bo disclaimed. Queens has had the Senator in John H. King, and Richmond has the Congressman in Mr. Met oalf.

In tbe first distriot the Democraoy have resolved to bring new men to the front, and as tho Republicans must of neoesBity do this, an interesting canvasB is counted upon. It is very probable that the Democratic nominee will como from Oyster Bay, and the Republican from Flushing. In the Second District new men must come to the foro for the Assemblyship. John Fleming, of Jamaica, is admitted on every hand to be tho most available man, but there will be a strong effort mode to give tho nomination to a Newtown man, or possibly Long Island City, to appease a discordant element that lingers there. Mr.

Fleming docs not seek the nomination, but has been brought into the field by tho young men of the party. Hempstead has many aspirants for tbo position. For the nomination for County Treasurer the fight is almost narrowed down to Supervisor Brinckerhoff ot Jamaica, and Frank Baldwin, of Hempstead. On the Republican side the nominee will bo Gcorgo Borgen, the present incumbent. Great disaffection exists in Long Island City.

There are two factions claiming to be the regular Democracy, one known as the Graham party, and thoother as tho Noble Darty. Heretofore it had been thefgBEom to havo the Convention decide on contested eeatsrnow, for the Bake of promoting harmony, grievances are to be passed npon by tho Central Committee a week before the Convention meets, and they are to decide who 1b ontltled to Beats in tho Convention. This 1b the only place in the county where faction fights aie earned on. COURT NEWS. DESERTED.

A TLatly and Five Children in Destitution. The Unfeeling Husband and Father Gone West. A sad case of desertion of his family by a husband, under poouliar circumstances, baa just como to light in tho eastern port of tho city, through the stricken povortyof tho abandoned wife. As narrated by her tho caso is ono of heartrending distress. Until within tho past twelvo mouths tbo family, consisting of the husband, wife and flvo littlo ehildron, havo always lived in easy circumstances, in luxury oven, moving in good socioty in Now York City.

The husband, a Mr. Charlos Howe, was formerly a salesman in a largo mcroantilo houso in Now York, whoro he obtoinod auflloiont salary to provide well for his family. Ho was sober and industrious, and novcr at any time inourrod either debt or disgrace. Indoed, a small Bum of inonoy was laid by during tho past two or three years against ony misfortune thatjmight happen in tho future. Tbat miafortuno came at last in the reductions of expenses and discharge of several of tho em ployee of tlio ostabUshmenl in whioh Mr.

Howo worked, on account of tho hard times. It became impossible for Howo to obtain other employment for which ho was fitted during tbo past yoar, and littlo by littlo with inexpressible anguish tho family saw their SMALL SAVINGS dwindle away, and in plooo thereof tbo accumulation of debt for necessary household oxponsos. Finally, about a month Binoe, it bocamo uoccssary for the fnmlly to move, through tho non payment of ront. Howo poBsoasod not a dollar in tho world, neither bad he wealthy or influential friends to aboiit him iu bis strait. All tho houBobold urnituro had gono to BatlBfy tko domanda of creditors, and tho unfortunato man was obliged to resort to tbo pawnbroker's with tbo greater part of his own and his wife's clothing for sufficient funds to movo out and obtain other lodgings.

With what money ho could thus raise ho succoodod, by paying a month's rent in advance, in obtaining a small furnished room at 104Wytho avenue, in Brooklyn. Hero tho family came, aud thero tho wifo and ehildron now aro, but tho natural protector, tbo husband and father, is no longor wits them. Aftor romaining with his family in their new lodgings for a few days, and failing to got any sort of work the husband bodo his wifo good by, dividing with bar tho lost romaining flvo dollar noto, proceeds of the pawn Bhop, and saying ho should bo absont sovoral day in scaroh of work, wont away to roturn no moro up to the present time. Ho has been gono throo wocks and his afiliotcd wife has hoard nothing from him, savo that an acquaintance In Now York stated that ho thought ho had seen him on a Woatorn bound train. Tho small sum, loft tho family soon gave out among bo1 many mouths, and tho poor woman found horBelf and children a wook ago upon tho verge of starvation.

In this DESPERATE CONDITION tbe sad Btory came to tbo ears of a kind neighbor through one of tho children, aud he at onoe rolievod tho iuuutidiato necessities of tbo family by Bonding thorn a supply of food from his own houso. In a noto penciled on a scrap of papor Mrs. Howo oxprcsaod her thanka to tho charitable gontloman, saying "May God deal as kindly with you as you have with mo and my littlo oneB." Bho thou aBked his advice and assistance In obtaining work. Sho was willing to do anything to obtain food and clothing for hor ohildron. The Winter with its cold waB coming on, and all thoir clothes were In pawn.

Sho desbrod work in order to redeem them and obtain fnol for a flro. Sho was almost discouragod, and the only consolation loft to her was to go down upon hor knees and pray God to help and sustain hor through hor soro troubles. In conclusion tho unhappy lady Bays: "If Mr. Howe conld only see these poor little ones, how they fret and worry for him, it would mako his heart aoho, unless, indeed, that heart be turned to stone, whioh God forbid. For your kindncBS to mo and mine, my sincere prayor Is that you Bhall nover know adversity, whilo prosperity shall follow you as long as you live." Womanlike she firmly boliovos that her husband Wrx.Ii TJLTTMATEI.Y BETUBN or send assistance, though too late, perhaps, to save her from sore distress and humiliation through the approaching hard Winter.

Mrs. Howo presents tho appearance of a rofinod lady and superior woman, though all unused to the sterner dutleB of life. Tho probabilities are that she will not be able to fill a working position to BUfilclout extont for the proper support of herself and flvo children through the Winter. Something she may do, but It would be far moie if any ono of the noble oharitablo institutions of tbe city would rondor them assistance. Thero can be no doubt of the willingness of the managers of bucu charities to render such assistance could only their attention bo directed to tho worthy object.

ALLEGED STABBING. Max Horn was arraigned before Justice Eames to day, charged with having stabbed Frank Kraus, on Monday last, at Fleishman's pipe factory, in Montrose avenue, where both men aro employed. During the dinner hour of tho day designated these two were skylarking. It first began with tho throwing of a paper boll at Horn by Kraus, ond, as alleged, Horn became enraged and cut Kraus on tho wrist twlco with a knifo. Tho accused says tho cuts wero made with a sheet of sand paper, to determine whioh a physician 1b to bo consulted.

Supervisors Mclntyre, Williamson; French and Fisher, of the Supplies Committee, held a meeting to day. Commissioners Norris, Cunningham, Baber and Midas were present to give their views concerning the alterations whioh aro needed to mako the Nursery a suitable place for a hospitoL Bat tho Committee determined to transact othor business prior to hearing them on this matter. Sup. Mclntyre said tbat the contractor for bunding a fence in tho rear of tho County Buildings at Flatbuah was not complying with the specifications. Sop.

Fisher remarked that it was now nearly a year ainco it was decided that thia fence waB a great necessity. It was about time that either it was built or somebody else was given the contract. Com. Cunningham concurred in Sup. Fisher's views.

Sup. Mclntyre said it was his belief that the contractor did not know what ho was required to do. Sup. Fisher that the matter be referred to Supervisors Mclntyre and Williamson. Carried.

Several requisitions from the Charities Commissioners were referred to Supervisors Mclntyre, Williamson and French. HOSPITAL FOB INOUBABLES. Relative to making alterations in this building for hospital purposes, Sup. Mclntyre said that Com. Norris requested the Committee to adjourn to his offioe, as tho Supervisor's chamber was too public, and liable to interruption.

Sup. Molntyro said that he had an appointment whioh would debar him from meeting Com. Norris on the question to day. Com. Cunningham said it would be well if the Committee would meet at tho earliest date convenient to them, as the Commissioners were desirous of putting the Nursery Building in condition for the reception of some patients from the Lunatic Asylum.

The Asylum was now overcrowded, and they proposed to relieve it in that way. Com. Raber said that some of the lower halls of tha Asylum whioh the overcrowded state of the institution compelled them to use were not fit places for patients. Sup, Fisher was of the samo opinion. It was deoidod that the committee, in conjunction with the Commissioners, Bhould meet on Monday at Flatbush to make an inspection of the Nursery and see for themselves what changes would be required.

The Committee then adjourned. DESIGNATION OF POLLING PLACES.

Syracuse has resumed its wonted quietness. The trains which left tho city for the east and west, during tho afternoon, bore the delogatos to their homes, and this evening the streets seem desertod compared with what they have been for the past forty eight hours. The rush for home commenced, in fact, before the Convention had concluded its labors. Tho interest of the delegates and spectators was mainly directed to the nominations for Secretary of State, Controller, Attorney General and Engineor and Surveyor, and when, these had been made, the floor and galleries of the Convention hall bogan to thin out, and a great deal of confusion prevailed. Many of the outsiders GAME DOWN UPON THE FLOOB, and circulated among their friends in the various delegations.

Thoro was considerable talk over the nominations for Canal Commissioner and State Prison Inspector. The delegates, who were in a great hurry to start for home, attempted to ohock the volubility of the talkers, but those who took the floor in advocacy of their respective candidates for tbe nominations for these two ofilces, were bound to have their littlo say, even if no one listened to them. The result was that the proceedings were somewhat protracted. The most of the Kings County men took the train whioh left here at one o'clock this afternoon and will arrive in New York about ten o'clock. 'Commissioner Fowler did not accompany them.

He is going West for about a week with Secretary Northup.who expects to join hhn here. KINGS COUNTY IN THE CONVENTION. In looking baok over tho proceedings of the Convention the Democrats of Kings County cannot but be gratified at tho prominent part token in that great body by their representatives. They were well represented in the Committees and In the list of vloe Presidents and Secretaries, while on the floor, Kings County had the honor of seconding the nomination of the Hon. John Bigelow for Secrotary of State, and of nominating John Van Buron, for State Engineer and Surveyor.

Mr. Van Buren is a.hrother of Mr. Bobert Van Buren, of the Engineer Department of tbe Board of City Works, of Brooklyn, and a gentleman of ability and refinement, Ho is a member of the Canal Investigating Commission. He was nominated by Senator John G. Jacob, after D.

M. Greene hod been prapoBed by Parsons, of Benssolaer; but Mr. Jacobs' speech oarried the Convention, and Mr. Von Buren was nominated by acclamation. Mr.

Thomas Kinaella, as a member of the Committee on Resolutions, took AN ACTIVE PABT in the deliberations of that Committee. He brought before the Committee the resolutions advocating hard money and supporting Governor Tilden whioh were adopted by tbe Kings County delegation on Wednesday night. Mr. Kinsella also submitted the following resolutions, which wore adopted by the German Democratic General Committee of Kings County, and a copy of which was sent here by the officers of that organization: IIr.ADCiUARTF.HA IIRMAri Geneblu. Cohhittbe') of Kings Couhty, Bbooexyh, September II, 1876.) At a regular meeting bold this day, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted "Resolved, That the German speaking Democrats of Kings County express their adherence to domocratio principles, but request equal privileges for all nationalities, of which this glorious organization is composed.

Resolved, That the German speaking Democrats of Kings County will exert their influence for the nomination of able and respectable men only. Resolved, That we observe with great satisfaction the energetio endeavors of tho Hon. Samuel J. Tilden, Governor of our State, to oppress corruption wherever ho finds it, and that we will wholly support him in his praiseworthy undertaking.

Resolved, That it shall be tho aim of tho Domocratio party to oppresB the inflation eivindle, whlob is undermining the industry of the country, and to revlvo specie payment. Resolved, That we find that the high tariffs tend to monopolism, enriching a fow and burdening the great masses, and that we expect a reduction of tariff as well as an honest, economical administration from the Democratic party. Ahxon Wedeb, Presidont. Albebt Wild, Secretary, These resolutions, together with all others, were referred to a Bub oommitteo and considered, and Mr. Kinsella reported the faots back to tho Kings County delegation.

About tho last thing done in the Convention was the act of one of the delegation. After all the nominati ons had been made, Senator Jacobs arose and proposed three obeers for the ticket. The response was immediate and so hearty that it could be heard a block away. The band struck np and the Convention was then declared adjourned sine die. The ticket is regarded as an exceptionally strong one, and the Kings County men are unanimous in tho opinion that it will sweep their eeotion of the State with even a larger majority than that with whioh Governor Tilden was sent out last Fall.

It is privately stated that Bradford Prince does uqt el the Sena A Woman Assaulted With a Razor and Badly Cut. Fighting; About an Alleged Husband One Woman Charged by Another With Committing a Murderous Assanlt With a Carving Knife.

Kesidents at the foot of Columbia street were aroused last night by loud cries proceeding from a low shanty at tho foot of the street. Several persona went to the place from which the cries were proceeding and opened the door. A terrifying sight met their gaze. They saw a woman hold by a brawny man, who was flourishing a razor in a blood chilling manner. The first shock over, they seizod the man and held him till the arrival of Officer McMahon, of tho Eleventh Precinct.

Previous to the coming of the oflrer the man made most determined effortB to escape and! would have used the razor npon them had he the opportunity. He was half crazy with liquor," and oursed and Bwore at his captors in a disgusting manner. The officer took him to the Eleventh Precinct Station House. The woman who was badly cut on the hands and arm, was also in a drunken condition and had to be taken to the Btation where her wounds could bo dressed. There was another woman, also drunk, who was arrosted for interfering with the arrest of the other two.

At the station, they gave their names as Mary Anderson, Thomas Nolan and Jane Nolan. Mary made a complaint against Thomas for FELONIOUS ASSAULT and Officer McMahon made complaints against the trio for drunkenness and disorderly oonduot. The woman's wounds which were not very serious, were dressed by a physician after which they were all locked up. This morning they were brought before Justice Walsh who is officiating during Justice Detour's absence in the South Brooklyn Court. They presented a pitiable appearance.

Mary Anderson's arm was heavily bandaged and the clothes were orimsonod with the blood which had soaked through Nolan, who is a large, heavily built man, looked badly used up, and bore every evidence of a continued spree in his rum soaked face. "What hare you to say to this complaint, Mary?" BBked the Justice. "Well, sir," said Mary. "Last night we wore having a bit of a time down in the shanty. There was Nolan and his wife and meself." "You were drinking," said the Justice.

"Well, sir, we was," she replied. "What were you drinking "Whisky." "How much did yon drink of it "Well, now, your Honor," she replied, "How can I toll you that. I don't remember how much I drank." "Then yon must have drank a good deal, that's the natural inference when you don't remember what you have been drinking." This conolueive argument Mary did not pretend to answer, but she stood picking at the bandage on her arm. "Well, go on with your story," said Justice Walsh. "Well, sir, we was drinking and wo kept on drinking for a while, when we got growling about something.

I forget what. Nolan seemed to get pretty mad. Ho was in a terrible passion, at least that's the way I remember it. I tried to pacify him, but before I knew where I was he had mo on the floor holding mo by the neck, and was FLOURISHING A BIG BAZOB over me, threatening to kill me. Indeed I thought he would, for ho cut mej.jjn the wrist and arm here, and I don't know how mo further he would have gone had not Borne peoplo oeme in and took hold of him.

He out me terribly Judge. I'U show you," and she proceeded to undo the bandage, which caused the blood to flow a little, when stopped by Justice Walsh who sold he didnt oare to see it. "But you were drunk last night" he added. "Well, Judge, I gness I was." "Then you can go to Jail for ten days until you got sober." Nolan war asked what hehad to say. He said the woman was drunk and had assaulted him, and that ho had used the razor In self defense.

"You were drunk, too?" asked Justice Walsh. 'No, sir, I was not," answered Nolan. "Well," said the Justice, "you can go to jail for a week. Then we will dispose of thia charge against Mary Anderson and Thomas Nolan were politely shown to tho pen by Officers Evans and Connor. Turning to Mrs.

Nolan, a little thin faced, red haired woman, Justice Walsh asked her what she had to say. SHE ADMITTED BEING DBUNK, but pleaded with tears in her eyes to be let go home, as ahe had never been arrested before. The Judge listened to her appeal, and when finished he said, "Sou can go." Tho particular neighborhood in whioh tho disturbance took place has been a source of constant annoyance to the police, who have to exercise a good deal of vigilance to keep the place quiet. Hod it not been for tho timely interference of the police last evening and the people who rosido in the neighborhood, tho drunken row in which the parties had participated might have resulted BoriouBly. Two Women Quarrel inn; Over an Alleged Husband.

A case of assault with intent to kill was called in Justice Elliott's ourt this morning, the par tics to it being Mrs. Margarot McDonald and Mrs. Mary Walsh. The particulars of the affair as stat ed by Mrs. Walsh, who is the defendant in the case, aro rather racy, it appears that Mrs.

Mo Donald has been In this country only eighteen mouius, ana nas boen married only five or six months. When she landed Bho found that her brother, Denis McDonald, was boarding with a wo man who now claims to be his wife, at No. 400 Henderson Btrcot, Jersey City. After his sister's marriage to William Walsh she commenced housekeeping at No. 108 Franklin Btreet, Qreenpoint.

Her brother having often assured her that ho was not married to the woman who now assumes his name, she induced him to come and board with her in Greonpotnt. He oonsented.and the alleged wife seemed not to trouble him. However, about two months after he loft her, she procured a warrant for his arrest for desertion. It was served on him while in Jersey City, when the case oamo to trial he had wstnessos to prove her to be a woman of bad repute. Whether ho admitted or denied the fact of the marriage does not appear, but the upshot of it was that he was allowed to depart.

He gave Jersey City a wide berth afterward. Meantime Denla got introduood to a maiden of about thirty nine Summers, who did the chamberwork for a fashionable family residing in Madison avenue, New York. Although Denis la ten years her junior, he got smitten with her oh arms, and after a short season of bfiUng and oooing they were formally united. All this wnilo his alleged wife in Jersey City heard nothing of the second marriage. When she did hear of it, last Tuesday, she came over to Qreenpoint to interview the newly made groom.

But the bird had flown, he hav ing two weess previously taken his departure for his native Wioklow, in Ireland. When Informed of this fact by Mrs. Walsh, where she went to make the InQUiry, she became furious, and poured out torrents of abuse. Among other things Bhe said that she gave Denis $1,100, which went in part to the support of Mrs. Walsh.

After getting through she went away, and next day procured a warrant for the arrest of Mrs. Walsh for attempting her Life with a eorving'knife. Mrs. Walsh says that she used no knife, nor did Bhe even attempt to put her out of the house. Mrs, McDonald did not appear this morning to prosecute, and JusUoe Elliott adjourned the case for a hearing at a future day.

A FAMILY BOW. Dir. and fiTra. Sherbrook's Troubles Explained to Justice Walsh. A tall and good looking man, evidently a longshoreman, named Benjamin Bherbrook, was arrested Thursday afternoon about three o'clook, and taken before Justice Walsh.

A small sited nd rather slovenly dressed woman followed him into the Court and Bwore out a charge of assault and battery against him. Shorbrook was called up and the JuHge said, "JCoa are oharged here by your wife with having committed an assault and battery on her by striking her on the head with your fist how about that?" "I plead not guilty." "Not guilty almost shrieked the woman, looking at her husband. "Not guilty 1" "Now, Mrs. Bherbrook," said the Judge, "if you'll keep your tongne to yourself for a littlo while we'll all get along better. When wUl you be ready for trial on this oharge, Bherbrook "Yes," said the woman, "the Judge waste to know when you'll be ready for "Mrs.

Bherbrook, you'll have to keep qutet or I shall lock yon up when will you be ready for trial (To the hnsband.) "I'm ready now," he replied. Mrs. Bherbrook was then eworn, and Bhe commenced "Your Honor, Judge, he hit me on the head and upset the stove, and broke my bureau, and" Judge Walsh I want you to keep rtill till I ask Ton to talk; now remember that. Finally Mrs. Bherbrook did stop, and then the Judge commenced on her evidence.

Bhe said she lived at 262 Nassau Btreet that her husband went into the house yesterday afternoon and asked her for some money, and Bhe refused to give him any. "Then," she eaid, "he np with Ills fist and hit me, your Honor, Judge, and then commenced to break the furniture, and he knocked the stove over, and spilt the hot coals" "No I didn't knock the stove over," he growled. "Oh, then, you did, and that officer knows It, Judge, your Honor, and he got three dollars from me yesterday, and went off and Bpent it for rum, and he Judge Walsh Stop right thero. How much have you been drinking to day? "Me drinking said the woman, indignantly. 'Yes, yon." "I haven't drank a drop of liquor to day, Judge." "Did yon drink any beer "No, your Honor, Judge." "Now you'd better tell the truth, because I'm pretty Bure that you have, or your breath belies you," Well, Judge, I didn't drink nothing out of tha way." Why didn't yon Bay so in the first place 7 Have you got any children 7" I have, Judge, like Bteps of stairs, six of them." And who supports them Well, this man does some (pointing to her hus band) and I work too." Yes, I suppose so now, if I commit your husband to jail on this charge, youH be ooming to me to lot him out, and saying your ehildron are starving." Your Honor, Judge, I would't mind if ha didn't break my furniture." "You are not sober enough now to give testimony anyhow, and I don't doubt If the truth of this was known, you are somewhat to blame in this matter.

Mrs. Bherbrook went out of the oourt, but as her hut band was somewhat under the influence of liquor, was committed to Raymond street until to day.

An Attempt to Violate Followed by a Murderous Assault. Last night, a respectably dressed, well mannered young lady caUed at the East Now York Station House, and informed. Boundsman Earloy that a villainous assault had boon perpotratod upon her by a colored man, at tho promises corner of Pennsylvania avenue and Broadway. Her right wrist and the thumb of her right hand wore out end bleeding, and sho alleged that tho wounds were inflicted by a razor whioh the colored man used in the attempt to intimidate her and compel her to submit to hia atroolous desires. Tho name of the young woman is Lizzie Suns, and ber residence Is at 1,698 Warren street, near Schenectady avenue.

She is 19 years of age. Her mothor, it is said, is employed as a matron or nurse in the Brooklyn Orphan Asylum, and Bont her yesterday to tho houso where tbo assault was commfttod for tbe purpose of engaging the services of a colored woman named Betts to do cleaning at the institution. When Bho arrived at the domicile a miserable, frame shanty, tenanted by several colored families Bhe found in tho Bpartments of Mrs. Betts, her son Borneo Betts, a notorious younnt rowdy, and William Harris, the perpetrator of tho outrage to which she waa eubjeotod. After inquiring for tho woman whom Bhe Bought, Mlas Sims was told to sit down and wait her arrival, while tho woman's Bon Bomer went out to look for her.

Miss SimB took a seat in the narrow apartment, Harris being the only other person in it, and when she had boen seated about five minutes, was horrified by tho glare fixed upon her by her brutish companion. So alarmed was sho by tho look of the ruffian that Bho was about to fly out of tho door, when ho sprang from the ohair on which ho had sat, with his gaze fixed intently upon her, and seized tho young lady by tbe arm. She at once divined his intent and screamed, when be when he put his hand across hex mouth and attempted to drag her toward a bedroom adjoining tho apartment in which the struggle took place. This effort on the part of the fiend Miss Sims resisted with all her might, when fearing that his viotlni might escape, he drew from his pocket a razor and threatened, if sho did not comply with his wishes, to out her throat. This threat only resulted in making tho young lady's rcsistanco all tho more determined.

Beleased for a momont from tho ruffian's grasp, sho screamed outright, when ho again grasped her this time by tho throat and attempted to choko her, at tho same timo holding tho razor over her head. A desperate Btrugglo then took place, Harris attempting to throw Miss SimB down upon the floor, and the latter fighting her furious assailant with all "tho strength proceeding from aroused energies. During tho scuffle, Harris drew tbo razor across tho young lady's thumb and wrist, causing the injuries already stated. At length, Borne of the neighbors heard the noise, and at the sound of approaching footstops Harris let hia victim go. Sho fled down the stairs rapidly as possible, and ran to the Btation houso, where she Btatod tho facts to tho officer, Boundsman Earley dispatched Officers Nowman and Clifford to arrest tho ruffian.

On arriving at tbe house, tho officers found both Harris and Borneo Betts, and took tho former into custody. Bomoo was taken to tho station honBO also, and hold as a witness. Harris was taken bofore Justice Gcrtum and committed until this morning, when ho was again token to Court. Miss Sims did not appear, howevor, and bo was remanded until this aftornoon. On inquiry the officers find that Miss Sims is very ill, consequent upon tbe nervous reaction from tho excitement of her terrible struggle.

The inhabitants of East New York are greatly excited over the occurrence, and the feeling against Harris is so strong that he will And the village aa undesirable place of residence even if ho escape, by accident, the punishment justly due to his outrage The ofllcers aro of opinion that the infamy was planned between Harris and Bomoo Betts as they eaw tho young lady approaohing. They think that Bomoo, who has been frequently arrested for larceny and other unlawful acts, merely pretended to go in search of hia mother that his companion might be left alone with Miss Sims. MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS. This morning every department in the City Hall was unusually dull, and not half a dozen of those who had attended the Syracuse Convention put in an appearance. Alderman Clancy, fresh from the hands of the barber, was around in search of a bootblack.

Tho work of tho Convention, ho said, bad been well done, and the only queBtion remaining unsettled was that of the majority which would be givon tho ticket just put in nomination. Success was as eured. Carpenters, plasterers and painters still had possession of the offices of the Board of City Works and General Woodward end Commissioner Adams, who put in an appearance for a short time, found it impossible to transact any business. Work iB to bo continued until midnight. On Monday noxt lt is expected that the repairs will be so far completed that a meeting of tho Board can bo held.

Detective Williams arrested a boy about 18 years old, named William Dean, Thursday aftornoon, on a charge of grand larceny proferred by Konward Buckstono, a lawyer, doing business at No. 41 Court street. In June last Mr. Buckstono, who employed Dean as an office boy, sent him to tho Mechanic's Bank with S9O0 to deposit. Dean went to tho bank, but only deposited $700, keeping $200 for himself.

He then ran away, and has never been since, until Detective Williams traced him to Bath Thursday, where he was at work cutting straw, being in the employ of a farmer there. Dean owned up to having taken the money and soys he went over to New York, bought a new coat and vest and at night went to the Bowery Theatro; ho got acquainted with a number of young boys and treated them several timeB and finally showed them oil the money he had. On seeing it his friends were seized with, but one impulse, and they went for William Dean and robbed him of every cent he had in his clothes, leaving him to beg about the streets, as he was unable to cross over the ferry, and even bad bo the money, would havo been afraid to oome to Brooklyn anyway. Finally he got employed at a miaerablo pittanoe as a farmer's boy at Bath, and was there working when arrested. He pleaded guilty to Justice Walsh and was held to await the action of the Grand Jury.

JOHN ZIMMERMAN'S SON. Thomas Connor and a son of John Zimmerman work together in a sugar house in Hamilton avenue. On Thursday last they bad a dispute about the manner in which some work should bo performod, and they almost oamo to blows, but a fisticuff encounter was prevented by an interference of somo workmen. Young Zimmerman went to his home No. 102 Partition street, and told his father of the dispute.

Zimmerman senior got very muoh excited over it and went to Connor's house, in Union court, last evening, to have it out with him. Both men used strong language, and the titewas brought to a sudden termination by Zimmerman hitting Connor on the head with some kind of a weapon which Connor cannot desoribe. A Blight wound' was inflicted. Connor had Zimmerman arrested, and this morning Justice Walsh committed him for examination. BANK OPENINU.

To day a removal of the effects of the German Savings Bank was completed from the old quarters in Montrose avenue to the new building at tho junction of Broadway with. Boerum street. Everything was In order and tho officials and clerks ready for business at the usual hour of ten o'clock this morning. The edifice has already been described in these columns as regards its general features, with the exception of the banking room fittings. These are in keeping with the style and character of tho building, and modern in every sense.

The mosaic floor is well sot off by the black walnut paneled desks, with plate glass upper work. At the rear of tho bank room are tho ofilces of the President, Mr. John Baber, and the Cashier, Mr. Bishop, which are well and yet not gaudily furnished in every requisite. It may be assumed that tho same practical business management, continued as in tho post, will insure the future success of this moneyed institution.

An attempt to swindle a grocer in Graham avenue to the extent of fifty pounds of white sugar, failed on account of the quantity asked for. Devon's Btory to that man was that he wanted 100 pounds, and would return after taking home the first half and pay for the whole amount. Hie wallet he had left conveniently at home. The story, in the language of the grocer, was "too thin," and would not paSB muster, bo Devoe did not get his sugar. From the evidence thus accumulated against the prisoner, there is every prospoct that Dovoe will be in receipt of regular rations at tho county's expense for a few months to come.

DEADLY STRIFE. The Proprietor of Deerfoot Park Shot. Two Bullets in His Body His Life Despaired of His Ante Mortem Statement to the Coroner. William McMahon, the proprietor of the Deerfoot Park race course, was shot twice last night, and it is thought that ho is mortally woundod. McMahon has two hotels, one on each side of the course, on the old Coney Island Bead and on tho Boulevard.

The shooting ocourred at the house on the old Coney Island Road. About half past eight o'clock last night McMahon, his barkeeper, Androw Bock, tho Constablo of the Town of Gravesend, and William Johnson, who resides in tho neighborhood, wore in the barroom. They were conversing In a friendly way together, when the conversation turned on the muscular development of the parties present. Johnson claimed that he was able throw any man in tho place. He was perfectly Bober at the time indeed, he is not a man ghon to drink.

I'll bet you that you can't throw Bock," said McMahon. I'll bet I can," returned Johnson. Let me see you do it," rejoined, McMahon. Johnson and Bock stepped on the floor, and BEGAN TO WRESTLE. It was evident from tho start that Rock wai over matched.

Johnson threw him the first time, and then invited him to come on again. Bock regained his feat, and the men struggled again. For the second time Bock was thrown, and then Johnson said, Havo you got enough Yes, I am satisfied," said Rock good hiimoredly. Come, let's all have a drink." The party went to the bar and drank. Johnson started to go away.

1 Wait a minute," Bald McMahon, and havo a cigar." He stopped, took a cigar and lit it, and McMahon making some jocose remark about his manner of wrestling, Jobnson angrily exclaimed, "You go to will you and went out of the place. He walked over to the roadside about four rods off, and stood leaning against the paling. McMahon seeing that ho was angry, followed for the purpose of placating him. He went up to him in a friendly way, and laying hold of hiB arm, said, "What's the matter, Johnson 7" 'Let go of me," JohnBon replied with some heat. 'I want to Eee what's the matter with you first." 'You do, eh," and Johnson tore himself from ATc Mahon's hold, backed a fow feet and DRAWING BEVOIVEB from his rear pocket fired.

It was done so quickly that McMahon felt the shot before ho was fully aware of the other's intention, Tho bullet entered just below tho right hip. McMahon cried out, "For God's Bake, what are you doing, Johnson, for a reply, discharged his piBtol again. Tho bullet tbiB time entered MoMabon's left brea3t, below the heart. He fell, and Johnson ran down the road. By this timo two boatlerB attached to the place were runniDg towards McMahon to assist him.

They lifted him in their armB and carried him to tho house. He was sensible, and said, "JohnBon ehot me put me in bed." An hour later, Johnson wag in tho custody of tho authorities of Gravesend. He claimed that he did the Shooting in Bell defence, that McMahon bad struck him, and was about to repeat the blow, when ho fired. It appears tbat up to the time of the shooting, the pai tics had been ou the moat friendly terms. Jobnson was a frequent visitant at McMabon's place, and had dono some business with him.

Last evening he had concluded with McMahon to sell him some oats, which were to bo delivered and paid for to day. UNPIiOVOKED AUGER seems to be the only cause of the shooting. McMahon passed a restless and delirious night. Dr. Bartlott probed his wounds, but could not touch either of the bullets.

They had not been extracted at noon to day. McMahon was more composed this inoruing. Coroner Simms went to take his ante mortem statement, and he gave it calmly and clearly. Tho affair was the topic of tho road to day, and there was a constant stream of the wounded nian'B friends making inquiries of his condition. Ho is very popular among tho horsemen, and they unaffectedly expressed their regrets at the occurrence.

None were admitted to MoMahoa's bedside, and tho houso was closed for business. The following is the ante mortem statement: MO MAHON'S ANTE MORTEM STATEMENT.

Parmenter, wife of Counselor Parmenter, 1,695 Fulton street, whilo moving a Btovc, under which she designed to place a lor jo sheet of zinc, tripped? and fell, the zino cutting a varicoss vein in her right leg. The blood spurted in such volume tbat the injured lady, who was alone iu the house, might have bled to death, had it not been for the presence of mind that prompted her to out a picturo cord and bind the limb tightly, immediately above the wound. Having done so, she was enabled to seek assistance, and a physician was sent for who ha3 since attended to her. Tho lady is yet very weak, having loBt a great quantity of blood, before the fortunate idea of using the picture cord occurred to her. MONEY MARKET.

Bergen, was up again to day, in tho General Term of the Supreme Court, and the matter of the commitment was reargued. It was claimed that the commitment was void upon tho ground the word "or llena thereon" had been interpolated in the order of the Court. Mr.

Bergon Borne time ago offered to Judge Gilbert to vacate the commitment on the giound that lt was not in accordance with the order, on account of tho above interpolation. This motion was denied, and the argument was an appeal from the order of Judge Gilbert denying the motion. Decision reserved. Decision in Admiralty. During the Winter of 1870 the canal boat J.

P. Newell and theeoheoner Christopher Columbus were laid up at Havorstraw, between a dock called West Dock and Pock's Dook, but in consequence of a high wind the fastenings of the schooner were broken and she wae carried across the sup and agaiUBt tbo canal boat, causing considerable damage. A suit was brought against the owners of the schooner, in the Admiralty Court, of this district, to recover damages for tho injuries done to the canal boat. This morning Judgo Benedict decided that the evidence provod that tho driftlDg of the eohoonor was the reBUlt of negligence on the part of those in charge of her In omitting to have more fastenings, and also that proper activity on the port of the crew of tho schooner, whon tho bow line parted, would havo enabled them at that late time to run a line to the dock, and thus to havo hold tbe vessel and prevented tho collision. A decree was ordered to be entered awarding to the owner of the canal boat damages for the injuries sustained by tho collision, and also tho costs of the suit, and an order of reference was made to ascertain tho amount.

A Brief Review of tbe Coming Week's Entertainments. The coming week will complete the round of amusements whioh Brooklyn has to offer for the Beason.

With the opening of tho BBOOKLYN THEATBE all tho places of amusement in the city will be in full blast, and it will be difficult for theatro goers to pretend tbat a sufficient varioty Is not offored them in tho way of theatrical entertainments on this Bide of tho ferry. Messrs. 3hook Palmer have now oompleted their, arrangements for the season at this theatre, and it may be safely said that at no timo in the history of the city have such elaborate preparations been made for the comfort and amusement of the theatro goers as now. As the readers of the Eagijc aro already aware, the theatre opens on Monday night for tho season with the Henderson and Oolville Opera Company, of which Miss Julia Mathews is the bright particular star. The troupe is an exoellent one, its repertoire comprises the best known French comio operas done into English as to the words, and tho stage sotting, just as it is at Wallack's, is to bo imported to Brooklyn.

The text of these operas has been rendered olearly, every one of the satyr like suggestions of tho French being expunged, while tho fun and frolio is retained. After the engagement of the Mathews' Opera Tronpo, Miss Agnes Ethel will return to the stage and make her reappearance at the Brooklyn, although in what play has not yet been decided. Theatre goers will remember Miss Ethel chiefly in connection with Sar dou's play, "Agnes," in whioh this lady made so decided a sucoeas. Next comes Belmore, the English actor, in tho "Fly ing after him, in rapid succession, Edwin Booth, Clara Mris (if well enough), E. L.

Davenport, George Hovey.lMr. and Mrs. Florence, Barry Sullivan and others. Barney Williams and wife will also play at the Brooklyn, if they decide to play anywhere this sea eon. Of all the names mentioned, so far, the only one not thoroughly known to our people is that of Mr.

George Hovey. Mr. Hovey is an Englishman and a comedian of repute over there. He is also a vocalist of good powers, having played in an English opera company within tho past few years. Hia ohfef successes have been made, however, In Byron's and Burnaud's burlesques, a clasB of entertainment for whioh Amerioan playgoers have little partiality.

The regular company at the Brooklyn will consist of Ladies, Miss Annie Gordon, Miss Ida Vernon, Miss Blanche Grey, Miss Dora Goldthwaite, Mrs, Farren, Miss AugUBta Raymond, and Miss Hattlo Thorpe. Gentlemen, Mr. Frederio Robinson, Mr. Edward Arnott, Mr. Ed.

Lamb, Mr. E. Plympton, and Mr. J. M.
