Mr. Granger subscribed $5 to the city treasurey at the request of Justice Cornwell and departed determined to keep a sharper eyo on the nag henceforth. Rnt AKISG T7P OF AN ALIJSGED DISORDERLY HOUSE.

A well known disorderly house, which has long been the resort of the degraded of both sexes, situated on the corner of Withers and Leonard streets, had become such a nuisance that the police were determined to break it up, in pursuance of which purpose Sergeant Eudyard, ofthe 0th Precinct police, with a platoon of men, last night made a descent upon the premises, and arrested the fol lowing nameu persons juary ueuuer am. ier rick, the keepers of tho house, and Catherino Powell. Ellen Ilampton, Ann Dunn and Elizabeth Keeder, inmates. At the tune of the arrest (about 9 o'clock last night) it is alleged that the accused were engaged in the most disgusting beastialltv. They were taken before Justice Walter this morning and held for examination.

A Martyr. A dilapidated female who presentod evidences of hard usage, presented herself before Justice Colahan this morning, her local habitation was at 149 North 6th K. and her namo was Troll, Margaret Troll, and the wrongs that she had suffered at the hands of two females, inmates of the same domicile with Mr. were beyond human endurance. The offending females are the Misses Kennedy, Julia and Kate.

They had frequently abused her, had assailed her with harsh epithets and bitter vituperation, but yesterday they had capped the climax by beating Miss Troll over tho head with 11 brass candlestick, pulling her hair out by the roots and putting her in bodily The lady's story being pretty straight, though rather too demonstrative, the Justice thought she had been badly used by the accused, and he therefore a warrant for their arrest. As Oi.n CrKTOMEii. Frank Median is of a sinaulsrlv roving turn, and turns his back on Mrs. M. and the little about once a week.

Lest his wife should forget him in hip abflonce, lie leaves a memento of himself in the shape of a black eye or somo such physical adornment. Mrs. Median conscientiously reports the fact of Frank's absence to Justice Cornwell, and 1111 official mundato is issued for bis arrest, but the very sight of him in tribulation excites the commiseration of Mrs. Meehan, and she takes back all she has before said, and gives Frank a character that qualilles him to assume to be possessed of every palernal virtue. This morning Mrs.

Meehan made her appearance with the old story; but the Justice declared he would not again be a party to the farce that has been so often enacted. Mrs. Meehan assured the Justice that this time she would give her truant lord the full benefit of the law, and he once more issued a warrant for frank, who will make his appearance this afternoon with more than probably the usual result. A Promising Family Max. James Luke, a beardless youth of apparently not more than sixteen years of arraigned for burglariously entering the premises of Mary Maguire, 21 Vine street, on Friday last, between 1 and 2 o'clock in the afternoon, aud stealing therefrom a watch, a pair of cuffs, gold pin, Mr.

Parmenter appeared for James, and in extenuation among other things, urged that lie had recently lea to the hymenial alter the interesting young lady that appeared by his side. Mrs. Luke modestly bowed assent and clingingly held on to her youthful protector. Mr. Luke seems to have taken a good start in the world, as there was found in his possession a full set of the burglarious rBn'lfffffeprofessVon tlt Mr.

Luke, young as he is, will be an ornament to Hiram Helms' establishment, and to teach him a lesson at the outset, he sent him there for six mouths. Mrs. L. bore her bereavement like a lady that had been prepared by a previous course of life for such contingencies. Charles Thome, who participated with Luke, was arraigned for the same offence be pleaded not guilty, and the Justice was at noon occupied with his case.

A Haud Case. Peter Maloncy, a great, big ugly man' who resides in Barbarine street, near Tillary, was arraigned for assaulting, with attempt to kill, an aged woman, named Mrs. Mulvey. It appears the parties live in adjoining houses, aud yesterday Maloney had a pail of water thrown upon him, and ho accused Mrs. Mulvey of doing it.

He rushed up stairs, broke into her room, aud in live minutes, smashed two thirds of the furniture in it. He then bravely turned on the old woman, tore a slat from the bedstead and struck her on the head with it several times; he left her insensible, and inflicted injuries that may prove fatal. He was arrested by tho police of the 1st precinct, and this morning Justice Cornwell committed him to jail to await the result of the woman's injuries. The only extenuation the accused had to offer was, that heliad been drinking. If liquor brings out the true character of a man, it shows Mr.

iialoneyto bean unusually hard case. Down ex the Povkdmasters. The office of pound master is no sinecure; his fees depend on his vigilance if he does not do his duty he makes no money; ifhedoes do it, the chances arc ten to one that he gets himself into trouble. Georee Fereuson. a denutv of noundmaster Armstrong, a few days ago fpund eigut geese and a gander that he thought ought to be taken care of.

Ho bore them off in triumph, but unluckily for him he met an em plovcooflhe City Pailroad named Stewart, who has a peculiar dislike to this municipal legislation. He thought he would disgust Ferguson with tho business, and to do it, he shied a s'tickat him, which took him on tho side of the. head Ferguson's attention being thus diverted from his duty, neglected the geese, and Stewart rescued them, and bore them off Ferguson's cap as a triumph. Now Mr. Armstrong wants to ascertain, through Jusliec the majesty of the liiwnnd the dignity of a deputy poundmaster oun be thus trifled with.

Mr. John 1'. Victory appears for ForgUBon. and Stewart will have the benefit of an investigation this afternoon. A Bad Case.

James Duff came before Justice Corn well this morning with a swelled head, a black eye coat less, hatless, and generally as thriftless a victim of bad mm as Kolsey's alley can scare up. His poor wife and two little ones were at once his accusers and counsellors for mercy. A police officer stated that Duff will not provide a home for his family that he is drunk a.il.lhc time, and abuses his wife when she follows him to try to induce him to do better. James denied this, and denied being drunk yesterday he said he drank but a single glass of beer, and he was sure his constitution had been so fortified by previqus dissipation that he could boar up against this. Mrs.

Duff, of course corroborated the thriftless fellow's story, and more than that said he was an exceedingly hard working, industrious man when he got work. Justice Cornwoll is too familiar with such bases to believe this fabrication, prompted by'afeetlon that exists Ih spite of every outrage. Duff warned tho Justice that if ho sent him up Mrs. Duff and the family will be badly off in his absence, as he was their mainstay; the Justice thought if they can live with him they can live without him and that Mr. Duff's head may linve a chance of coming down to its normal size, he gave him a document entitling him to the hospitality of the Sheriff for ten days.

TnE Honeymoon and How it TBaMiNAirmi. This day week Stephen Leonard led' to tho nuptial aliar a young and a more than usually interesting looking bride. Stephen dreamed of all kinds of felicity; he drives a team for the Brooklyn City Kailroad Co. and when not interrupted by tho ringing of the bell or attracted by passengers, Stephon thought of nothing but the happy years in store for him with his blushing Mary. He built up castles in the air as tho young mon will, and Mary presided over all.

The sober facts are however that Stephen's salary is limited, and they did not deem it advisable to commence housekeeping until they got a littlo ahead. Stephen kept on boarding next door to tho Clarendon Houbo 011 3d1 av. and Mary retained her place in the family of Mr. Worth on Ninth st. They livedas man and wife but twenty four hours, but suoplu called regularly on his bride.

Yesterday evening he was there aa usual, and the parties were apparently as happy as turtle doves, in tho kitchen, Stephen, perhaps doubting whether bis bliss was rcal.raised the question whether or not Mary bad ever loved another. Mary broke the enchantment by confessing she did, and what was worse, she now loved him better than Stephen. This was a peculiarly perplexing predicament for a man newly married; and he considered for somo time how he would make an ass of himself. Finally ho seized' a knife Umt lay. on the table and made rushut Mary; she with a woman's tact rather went back on her statement, and she assured Stephen that she might yet be won.

Stephen insisted on a proof of her love on the spot, and proposed Ihia awkward test of it if she loved him sh must die with him I ho would kill her in the first instance, and afterwards he would follow her to the next world Mary has no acquaintance with the Coronor and she decidedly objected to throw $10 in his way in this fashion. She sulil shu had no stomach for this kind of thing, and Stephen made threats of putting tho first part of his proposition into execution and making short work of Mary. She pacified him again, and they sat down together for a short time, and Mary after a while wentup stairs and told Mr. Worth what had occurred, and insisted Unit Stephen should bo shown outside. Stephen weni, but Mary thought theniatlor should not end here, and she got oul a warrant, nnd this morning the bridegroom was intro ducedrto Justice Cornwell.

The accused waived examination, and ho was hand cuffod to Pelor Mulotiey, already mentioned, and sent to Juli to meditate on Hie uncertainty of married bliss, and.to speculate on the llckhi iiaiure or fe mininity in general; and Mrs. Leonard in par llculnr.

In order to give an idea how many are useful, and how many worthless, we give them in ine lonowing order Receiving ship (liner) North Carolina. tons, built in 1S20, useless for sea service. Frigate Brandy wiue, 1,726 tons, built in lS3i, worth Frigate Potomac, 1 ,750 tons, built in 1821, rotten. Bailing corvette Vandalia, 783 tons, built in 1S23, good for another cruise. RnUine brio Pcrrv.

250 tons, built in 1S48, in fair order. Bteam frigate Koanoke, 3,400 tons, built in 1855, needs thorough repairs. Steam frigate Wabash, 3,200 tons, built in ls55, about to be stripped. Steam frigate Susquehanna, 2,450 tons, built in 1S50, efficient and ready for sea. Besides these, there are seven small craft connected with the Coast Survey, in the stream.

The Perry and Vandalia have been docked to receive some copper on their bottoms, were floated out yesterday, and are now waiting orders to be equipped and manned for sea. The "Wabash will be for the next six months undergoing repairs. The Roanoke conld be finished in a few weeks' less time. The Brandywine and Potomac, in their present form, are perfectly useless. Nearly a thousand men are employed now in the Navy Yard.

The stone foundation of the Western 6hip house progresses rapidly, and the new marine barracks on Flushing avenue will be completed in a little while. The old garrison at the gate is manned by over fifty soldiers, who have' recently doned the new uniform of the marine corps. The guard of the North Carolina is almost daily drilled a la Zouave, on the parade ground, CaptainB Reid and Lilly directing their movements. The guard assigned to the Susquehanna is composed of a fine looking set of men, and is commanded byCapt. Simms, whose friends at Warrington are so happy at his appointment to a first class vessel, outward bound.

Commodore Breese and Capt. Foote are the chief officers of the Navy Yard, which was never in such a well organized condition. The surveying vessel Vari na returned yesterday from a cruise, and took her place in the bay. Several desertions are already reported from the Susquehanna, many of which are facilitated by the gang of rowdies located at Irishtown. They smuggled a man off in a scow the night before last, and prevented a boat from the North Carolina capturing him.

Although there will be some trifling diminution of the employees at the Navy Yard, the Roanoke and Wabash being in hand, will insure steady Work for a large force. On the whole, matters are seldom more brisk in "Wallabout Bay" than at present. Chief Engineer King was yesterday engaged at the Navy Agent's, in examining some machinery to be forwarded to the steamer Water Witch. The engines of the new steam sIood Richmond have undergone a trial at Norfolk. They do not seem to have justified the high opinion formed 01 tnem.

The articles found consisted of a brown cloth frock coat, green cloth pants, silk vest, white shirt, straw bat, and a pair of footed boots.

Nothing was found about them to indicate the name or tho wnereaDouts 01 the owner. Casualty. A young lady named Pease. daughter of Mr. E.

An Unauthorized Detective A middle aged man was brought to the Detective Head' quarters this morning on suspicion of obtaining goods by representing himself as a detective po lice officer. The man denied the charge but stated that a number of his acquaintances had been robbed and he, having taken descriptions of the articles took it upon himself to "turn up" pawn shops and other places where he supposed the goods might be.

He added that he had formerly been a member of the San Francisco Vicilance Committee and since he came back felt a great interest in having all thieves punished. To this end he had assumed the duty of recovering stolen goods. Inspector Carpenter informed the man that he would get himself into trouble by such operations and added, after scrutinizing him closely, that he was too nervous to make a good detective. As no goods had been obtained by the man he was discharged with a reprimand. He promised to abandon the business of detective.

The Fifth Anenue Burglaries. The occupants of Nos. 103 and 105 Fifth were robbed a few nights since, and an account of which we published yesterday, came to the detec. tive's head quarters this morning, and identified the stolen goods, of which about $2,000 worth has been recovered. It is not known how much is still missing, but the total value is supposed to be some thousands of dollars.

The burglars are in custody. Supposed Fatal Camphene Accident. This morning Mrs. Edward McCann, residing at 179 East 11th was severely burned. She tried to light a fire in the stove by means of camphene, and the flames communicating with the contents of the can, caused it to explode, and she was so dreadfully injured that no hopes are entertained of her recovery.

Prize Fights bt New Yorkebs. The prize fight between Dan Kerrigan and Australian Kelly, which has been pending for some time, came off yesterday morning about two miles from Island Pond, N. one of the stations on the Grand Trunk Railroad. Twenty five rounds were fought in forty five minutes, when Kerrigan was declared the through having received a foul blow from Kelly. The latter was the worst punished, and would probably have lost the fight had it continued.

Alight also occurred yesterday at North Point, between Jersey City and rjo boken, between two men named John Mack and John Foley. The fight lasted about half an hour, and resulted in favor of Foley. Both of these matches were made in New York. Clams Cooked by Lightning. The crew of pilot boat Washington, No.

which vessel was struck by lightning while lying at anchor at tho Southwest Spit on Saturday evening last, had amongtheir provision a quantity of clams, which they had placed in abucket in the cockpit. After the lightning struckihe ves el an examination was made to discover the amount of damage done. An inspection of the clams showed that they had actually been cooked by the fluid. Fires.

Base Ball has not only aided in de veloping the muscle and expanding the chests of the incoming generation, but it also bids fair to enrich the copious vocabulary of the English language by a new term the word "muffin." A "mnff whether a legitimate word or not is not an unusual one and its meaning is fully well understood.

Now if we said of a ball player noted for catching anything but the ball that he was a 'muff" we would be clearly known to express a rather poor opinion of the player by the signifl. cant but rather inelegant expression. "Muffin" is an elongation of the word, and the "muffins is un fierstood to be a collection of individuals, whose Augers are pretty much all thumbs in other words a collection of muffs as compared with the best players. The word will find its way into more general acceptance and may hereafter puzzle some future philologist. Burglary.

The house of Mr. Cornell, corner cf Lawrence and Johnson streets, was entered this morning by burglars about 3 o'clock. Mrs. Cprnwell on being awakened by a noise in the room, saw a man standing near the bed, and on her screaming out, he took to his heels down Btairs and out of the side door on Lawrence st. The alarm being given private watchman Fox was soon on the ground but the thief had made good his escape, leaving behind a brace and bit, with which he gained entrance to the house through a back basement window.

A cash box containing about $10 is missing, together with a small amount of silver ware. The Letter Boxes. It is unfortunate that any distrust should have been thrown on the Post Office letter boxes. Most of the grievances complained of in New York were the result of carelessness in those using them. They ought to be popular, for they may be said to have brought the Post Office to every man's door.

"We have never leardany complaints as regards the boxes in this eity. There is another feature of our Post Office here that perhaps has never been called attention ot wivate letter boxes in the Post 5CL, 7 T' and cost but a mere trifle this city, but Tork their use is so general that they command a handsome premium. By having a box in the Post Office you can, at a glance, tell whether there is any communication for you, and if there be, you can get it in an instant. This is convenient when hurriedly passing by. It is against the whole theory of Post Office practice that a letter should he suffered to remain in che Post Office anv lensrth cf time after its arrival there, and by having a box si your own you will be induced to look in often cr, and be kept less time waiting thus delay will iju avoiueu.

INFORMATION WANTED A STRANGE CASE. On Monday last an unknown man was picked up in a dying; rnnrlitinr, onito ouiuu ur Diuatyaj and 21st street, New York, and taken by a member of the Metropolitan Police to the Bellevue Hospital, where he soon after expired. He was wholly unknown. Coroner Jackman held an inquest on the body and a verdict "that deceased came to his death from causes unknown to this jury" was rendered. A suspicion exists that the man's death was caused by some drugs which he had taken.

On his person were found a number Of tickets for riding on the Broadway Railroad and some Williamsburgh ferry tickets, and it is believed that he resided somewhere in the vicinity Of Broadway and Cook street, Eastern District, though nothing certain in regard to who he was or where he belonged has yet been ascertained, though diligent inquiry has made by Coroner Jackman and the Police of Brooklyn. He was a man apparently about 30 years of age, had on black clothes, one of his front teeth was out, and the fore finger on his left hand had been ta hen off. With the view of elucidating what now appears a somewhat mysterious case, we publish this paragraph. The Census Rettoss. The census returns of this city are already finding their way into the papers, contrary, we believe, to the express wish of the directors of the census bureau, who aro do Birous of withholding them until an accurate abstract can be obtained.

There Is evidently much more alacrity displayed by the census marshals of this district to get their names in the papers than they manifested to make the figures they give Worth publishing. But the figures, whether accurate or not, are those that will be taken as the basis of our prosperity, and we must make the best of them. It is gratifying to be able to state that Brooklyn more than justified the most sanguine expectations in regard to the increase of population. Two hundred and fifteen thousand was the outside figure named this would have left us in rank, Ihc fonrtti city, in the Union, placing before us New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore. But it is estimated that our population Will reach two hundred and sixty thousand, leaving lis still the third city in the Union, and a good way ahead at that.

The following returns are given of the several wards mentioned. It will be seen that the 4th' ward has decreased 1,500 since the State census was taken in 1855 this is attempted to be accounted for. by the increase of business places in the ward, which have usurped private residences. We believe there has been no such falling off, as an accurate census would tomorrow show: Wardsl 1855. 1360.

The population of the entire city, in 1855, was 305, 800. Keep off the Grass. The top of Fort Greene is a pleasant place enough of fine summer evenings.

It commands one of the finest prospects In Wallabout Bay lies at your feet almost, two cities are spread out before you, and the beautiful harbor is in sight, softened and mellowed by the distance. To sit down there, smoke a quiet weed, look at the panorama before you, and dream of early days and calmer hours, is almost as soothing and beneficial as a dull sermon. But, as a drawback to this, it is quite a journey to get up thore, and somehow one feels an insatiable desire to take a rest comfortably on the green sward, that, alas, we see but now and then except in our garden patch. But you must not do this for the inexorable eye of the Metropolitans is upon you, and if yqu attempt it you will pretty Boon bo rudely awakened by a gruff "Get off the grass."
