After being confined twenty hours in the jury room, the Jury was ordered into Court and dismissed by Judge Rockwell, with the remark that the Jury was badly Constructed evidently, and that he was unwilling to punish the right miiided on account of the perversity of others. The Judge was, perhaps, justified in this assertion, from the fact that one ot the jurors, who voted for conviotion, had caused au affidavit to be The WUliamsburgh Tunes suggests the propriety; of consolidating all the Assessors of Brooklyn and all the country towns of Kings county into one Board. The reason it gives is that the rural communities are now taxed less than they should be. It Illustrates thus One man for example, is possessed of a farm worth $20,000 and' it is assessed at scarcely so many hundreds another owns a mill or a factory and this is placed aLnearly. its full market value on the tax roll.

Again, lots in the 8th ward, Brooklyn, are assessed at three or four hundred dollars a piece while on the opposite side of a fence property equally as valuable is rated at no more than the acre because it happens to be farm land and is situated in New 'Utrecht.

A true bill was found by the grand jury, at the Court of Quarter Sessions, Philadelphia, yester day, against Michael William McCabe, recently ol Toronto, Canada, now in the county prison TroyBnet, jioo $1:1 We noticed afew day go, aease of suioide thoccurredlff WyaantskuL fThefrtctlm was a young'man' named Win; Henry Hayek, who hung himself in a barn belonging to his father in law in that Jown. Coroner Hegeman held an Inquest on the body at the time, and a verdict was rendered of suicide by hanging. Since then Coroner Bontecouhas been holding a second inquest at the instance of some friends ol deceased, and the result is thus stated in the Whigot this morning; The evidence showed this state of facts The deceased, Henry Hayek, about a year since married the daughter of Bernard U.

Sharp, of Wynautskill, against the wishes of the girl's parents, Huyck at the time being underage. After the lapse of some months, matters were in a measure compromised, and Huyck and his wife returned to Sharp's houBe Sharp leasing the. farm and dairy to Huyck, the latter agreeing to pay so much tor the use of the. same. George Sharp, brother of.

the wife of the deceased, was employed on the farm by Huyck Huyck devoting himself principally to the care of tbe dairy of Borne tweuty cows, and the selling ot the milk in Troy. It was in evidence that domestic discord reigned at Sharp's house between Huyck and his wife, and between Huyck and his mother in law; that one time sho struck Huyck and that they frequently had high words. A few months Bince Bernard U. Sharp induced Huyck to turn his milk business over to the care of George U. Sharp, bis brother in law, whilst he Huyck, should remain at home in charge of the farm.

From this time, Huyok reoeived hone of the proceeds of the milk sales, became embarrassed in hia pecuniary affairs, and appeared generally downcast. Ou Monday the 19th in the afternoon he took a rope halter from the house, and told Mb wife that he wajji going a distance of about twenty miles and when fie was found he would be in a bad condition. His wile afterwards saw him at the barn, engaged about some work. Late in the evening she endeavored to a lad to go into it to see if Huyck naa therVirVtae boy declined to go.

He says he returned to the house to empty his pail, ana tben to the yard again, without ac quainting tbe family' of the discovery he had made in the barn. The milking finished, and some time after he went to the residence ol Huyck's father, near by, and inquired if they knuw where Henry was.

He said that he was hanging iu his barn, and he supposed he was dead.

Sbarp that he committed the deed himself, And tbe jury say, that they Delieved deceased was driven to the act by family trouble, aud not by intemperance or insanity.

win come Deiore one ot tne courts. in a tew days The circumstances as related to us, are as follows About six years ago, a gentleman from this oity, left for California, leaving behind him a wife and a lot In the western part of the city, worth Ltelljflrenep. of the death of her hnsband. Within SSUO. Aa two.

But to the astonishment of all, the first husband re turned home within the last two weeks alive and hearty as ever, but poorer in wordly storeB than when be leit for the auriferous regions. It ap pears tnat tne report oi nis decease was occasion ed by the death ot a person of the same name. which report reached the wife through the news papers. The first husband had remained only a i i a ear ui twu iu uij.iui:ma auu migrated to tue Hanawicn islands, wuere ill luck betel him, and in consequence thereof, he neglected writing to Mb better half.

Finding how affairs are nowthe first husband seems reconciled to the Iosb of his wife, but is desirous of regaining hiB property, Thus the matter now stands, and unless a compromise is effected between the parties, the law will have to test the merits of it.

Brooklyn, August aaka I In ef A Little Child amono Lunatics.

i 'dav ot: two ago, a gentleman, whose." official fattes rfc quired him to visit a large asylum near this city devoted to tbe indigent insane, took witbhim a little boy, some three years old, and it was an interesting study to watch the effect which the presence of the young visitor produced among me lunatics or every grade. An unusual degree of quiet and order prevailed in every hall, and touching manifestations of the softening and subduing influence of childhood were exhibited by those who were ordinarily most intractable. This was particularly the case with those who hod passed the season of youth. One man, incurably insane, approached the little boy with a countenance for the moment full of gentleness and kindness, and with a polite gesture handed him a straw being all that he had to give and showed great satisfaction when it was accepted and borne as if it had been of value. Almost all approached and shook hands with the infant, and so mild was their bearing that he did not for a moment hesitate, and although abashed at what was to him an unusual crowd, he cheerfully yielded his little hand tojtheir caresses.

But the most interesting scene was in the women's apartments. They were ready to devour the child with their, caresses, and yet when they observed that their crowding and volubility annoyed him, instinctively withdrew a little, and modulated their voioes to a tone of tenderness, to which many of them hod long been strangers. One of the women, herself a mother, enquired with tearful eyes, "Dear little fellow, is his mother living?" An affirmative reply seemed to relieve her apprehensions, and her expression of interest assumed a more cheerful tone. The moBt violent, closely confined iu cells, watched every movement of the boy with intense interest and some begged, by all the affection of their own offspring which insanity In its worst form had not eradicated to be permitted to embrace him. The whole scene was calculated to deenen the sympathy felt for the most unfortunate class who were the object of the visit, and to enow how strongly the society of children is calculated to win back to gentleness those who, from any cause, have passed that indefinable line which separates the sane from the insane.

Y.Cour. and Enquirer. The farmers in the south are having a good time ot it just now in supplyin tbe Eastern markets with vegetables, tho high prices having attracted their attention, and the steamers trading between the southern and eastern ports enabling them to send vast amounts of fresh vegetables, which reach their destination in good condition. Nearly two thousand barrels of potatoes are sent gaily lrom jnoiioik to Baltimore, Philadelphia and New ifork. Peas, cucumbers, strawberries, when in season, and cabages also come to our markets by the same conveyance, and from even as far as south Savannah.

With such a supply one would suppose that prices would be reasonable, but they remain at a figure higher than ever has been known here. Tne Norfolk Beaoon says that Mr. Munden raised lrom' 35 bushels of Irish potatoes, tor which he gave $1 50 a bushel a crop which sold at the Esastfor $806. After paying all expenses, the net profit amounted to $689. Subterraneous Streams.

A man named Morgan, while digging a well on his farm, near Hudson, Illinois, had sunk a shaft down 53 feet, when he struck a rock, and in trying to loosen it, it leu witn a quice plunge into a subterra nean stream of water, about four feet in depth, which fiqml with great velocity. Mr. Morgan had DareW time to seize the rope which hune doffipjpe tshaft, to save himself lrom falline into thepurbid waters. A similar phenomenon is said to exist in Butler township, Jackson county, in the same State, the water lrom which finds a vent on the side of a bluff, and ia of sufficient force to turn heavy machinery.

Jones Davison, Heal Estate Brok rs, No. 340 FoltoQ user the city Brooklyn. wtwss Carefully prepared in the jury room by one of vue jurors, wno was a commissioner oi ueeus, to tbe effect that said Juror hud heard me say on the Monday previous, at the relectory of Toyn bee's Hotel to Mr. Crampton, the defendant, that if I was on the Cavanagh case, I would have held out against a conviction aud this affidavit, it is reported, was sent into Court and read by the udge before dismissing the ury. Sundry comments upon this subject have been made by the public Press, which I do not deem it necessary to answer but it may not be improper for me to state that I did not know, until sworn as a juror, even the name of the delendant.

If I was prejudiced either for or against a conviction, and it I was guided by other than honest convictions in finding a verdict, it is kuown only to Him who knows the inmoBt recesses of our hearts. It was my dnty to find a verdict according to the evidence, regardless of th opinion of other jurors, and 1 had no right to permit my prejudices against the sale ol mm to warp my judgment. C. S.

Alter some lurther conversation Bogardus told the Deputy Sheriff that he would serve on the said jury it tbe day wan pleasant Jones navmg previously told Jlogardus that he (Jones; was one of the jurors. ben two of the party leit thu room, Jones and Bogardus being then alone, deponent went up to them, and introduced himself, informing them that he (deponent) was defendant in the action, and deponent had per haps three minutes conversation with said Jones after informing aa aforesaid.

Deponent further says, that said Bogardus took no part iu said conversation, and seemed disinclined to listen to what deponent said, ancU wnenJoneB left deponent to partaKe ot nis dia ner which was previously ordered, said Boptr dus went immediately into the street, and exchanged a word with deponent from that time until the jury were discharged. Deponent further Bays, that said Bogardus was a total stranger to him, prior to Monday last, at the hour named above, and that he had not heard the name otsaid Bogardus until the said Bogardus was sworn a juror on the following day.

Deponent also heard Bogardus tell Jones that he (Bogardus) had not Been the evidence in tbe Cavanagh case, but had read the judge's charge, and thought it very severe and biased, but that it might be justified by the evidence which he (Bogardus) had not seen.

It is in contemplation to have a course ol botanical lectures delivered at the Queen's garden at Kew, in the summer months, mainly intended for tbe scientitio improvement of the gardners, but ol such a nature that the public may also avail themselves ot this opportunity for instruction in botanical knowledge.

The 'Athenaeum remarks if the Snydenham Palace should answer, glass palaces may spring up in the provinces in a few years as numerous as melon frames. If this succeed, there can be no reason why public museums, libraries flower shows, ic, should not be all carried on under one great root, of a cheap, durable, and beautiful quicsly erected, and quickly removed. There was a report in circulating about London that Carljle had gone mad. It arose lrom the fact that one of his neighbors kept fowls, whose noise near his Horary window annoyed him. He sent word to their owner that if they were not removed, tney would drive mm mad.

The owner of the hens probably took his eccen tric nemttbor at nis word, and cave out that he had gone mad. We shall look out lor extraordi nary evidences oi derangements in the lite of Frederick upon which the great transcendental ist is now engaged. M. Moockton Milnes, Al.P., said at the last an nual dinner ot the Mesmeric Infirmary, that an event of some interest had occurred iu its history within tbe present year. A gentleman from the country and unconaected with the institution, performed an operation within its walls, with a success and peculiar perfection of eflect that had created perhaps more interest that the event deserved; for it was almost a reproach to the advance of knowledge in our day that a hichlv suc cessful and painless operation in surgery should be considered a rare and peculiar event.

Great importance, however, attached to the operation (that of cutting off a womau's breast when in a mesmeric state) inasmuch as it was almost the first surg'cal operation that has been performed in the infirmary.

Reminiscences of Judos Barculo.

la allud ing to the death of Judge Barculo, of this statet the Cleveland Herald says "Judge Bakcolo was forty Eix years of age, and resided at Pongh" keepsie. He was ot the class which entered Yale College in 1828, and Btood in the foremost rank of scholars. Seward Barculo and Thomas D. Gbtmkib, of South Carolina nephew of Judge Grikkie, of Ohio were the competitors for the first stand in scholarship. Grimkie, some years Since, was killed while riding in a gig, by the accidental discharge of a gun by his side.

Thus have gone out at the dawn of life and usefulness, two of the finest minds that ever graced the halls of Yale. They were the 'bright particular stars' of a noble band of young men, whose ranks death has thinned most sadly, and at the summons of whom many that are scattered over the world drop a tear, as one by one that 'band of brothers' away." The Washington Sentinel is in favor of the removal of the American squadron from tbe coast of Africa for tbe reason that "An American man of war which captures a slaver filled with negroes, finds itself in an upleasaut situation, True, the vessel can be sent home, condemed, and sold as a prize. But then the negroes, what is to be done with them They cannot be carried to Cuba and Porto Rico. What is to be done with them Why they must be carried back to the coast of Africa and turned loose on the shore as a new supply to the baracoon, awaiting the next slaver. This is the reason that American cruiser axe more anxious to capture a slaver before she has her cargo on board than to capture her after the negroes have been shipped."

The disavowal of the English and French governments of any intention to interfere in the drills of Cuba, compare strangely with the ar. rangements that have been made between sajd I gorernmegta and that of Spain.
