Dally, Charged with Sweating Falsely Before Justice Pratt Accused by a Lawyer With Whom He has Been in Frotraoted Litigation and who was Baffled at ETery Turn Justices Pratt, Gilbert, Donohue and Others Likely to be Witnesses in the Case Proceedings Before Justice Sender. This morning Mr. Henry Daily, one of the most widely known members of tho New York bar, was prosentod beforo Justice Somlor to answer charges of perjury preferred against him by Henry A. Frost, a lawyer, and Henry WilkiUB, both of New York City. The complaint on which the warrant Is issued covers a great many pages of legal cap, and charges that tho acoused ''Committed willful and corrupt perjury to a material matter" in tbe trial of an action pending in the Supremo Court of the Saato of Now York, held at the County Court House in the City of Brooklyn on the eighth day of June, 1871, wherein Alexander Cameron was plaintiff and George M.

Mittnaoht and Henry Wllkins wore defendants. Tbo specifications Bet forth, substantially, that on the Md of July, 1871, Henry A. Frost, tho attorney of Mittoscbt, bad in bis bands a note of $5,700, mado by George B. Heim, payable to his order, and Indorsed by Philip Brook and by the firm of Peter Hnxemer; that about that day Mr. Daly obtained possession of the note by trick and device (the manner of whloh Is not alleged) and that subsequently, he brought suit against undertaking agreeing to pay any judgment that the plaintiff might recover, not exceeding tho snm of $15, 000.

answered in the case, by Frost, his attorney, and the lssuo came on for trial on or about the 20th day of Juno, 1873, before Judge a Jury. There being no appearance by either the defendant or bis counsel, Mr. Daily took an inquest, tho jury rendering a verdict against Brock for tbe nil amonnt claimed, being Judgment was entered on that verdict, with oasts, on the 30tb of Jnly, 1873. Plaintiff and his counsel having failed to obtain the amount of tbe Judgment from the bondB men, Mittnacht and Wilklns, and it remaining unsatisfied, suit was commenced against tbem, on their undertaking, tu tho Supreme Court, County of Kings. In this tho maker and all the indorsers in tbe regular order ot their liability; that in the action thus brought, Mr.

Daily obtained on attachment against the property of tbe defendants which was levied upon tbo property of Philip Brock. Brock appeared in the action by Henry A. Frost, his attorney, and caused to be executed, and filed an undertaking for the discharge of said attachment, tho sureties In that undertaking being Georgo M. Mittnacht and Henry Wllkins. Tho Court approved that undertaking and tho attachment was discharged, the sureties on tho action, Henry A.

Frost again appeared to reprosont tho defendants, and put in an answer admitting the issuing of the attachment, and tho execution of tbo bond, and denying all the other allegations of the complaint. The case thus arising, camo on tor trial before Judge Pratt and a jury, on tho 8th of June, 1874. Frost then appeared, and answered not ready, and tho Court having ordered the case toproceod, Mr. Dalley took an inquest against the bondsmen for upward of $7,300, and judgment was entered on tho verdict for $7,777 03 100. Mr.

Frost, in bis affidavit, chsrgos tbst Mr. Daily novor obtained any judgmont agalnBt Brock for the amount sworn to by bim at the timo he appeared as a witness for bis client in tho proceeds before Judgo Pratt, and he further claims that the statement then made under oath by Mr. Daily that he bad demanded payment of the judgment from tho sureties, Mittnacht and Wilklns, was alBO wholly unfounded aud untrue When the case was called by. Justice Soulier, Mr. Daily personally appeared iu hie own defeuse.

and stated that be was ready to proceed. Tho complainant, Wilklns, had not yet put in an appearance, and bis Honor intimated that it might no necessary to set the case over. Mr, Daily I demand that h9 bo brought into court and that I be given a hearing forthwith. There is nothing lu this matter to occasion any delay, and it is certainly but Justice to mo that I should have tho opportunity to meet It, promptly. Judge Somlor Wo ought to proceed In this matter with very great care.

It is a charge of a very grave nature, uttered against a gentleman who is noted lor unblemished integrity and professional ability. Thore is no danger whatever that the caso will be withdrawn, and therefore, think that tt would bo better to enter upon tho examination at a time when It can be made more thorough. Mr, Daily Then, I wish the hearing sot down for as early a day aa possible. I have known your Honor since tho timo I was a student in the office of Charles O'Con or, and from that time until now, I defy any man, ex oopt theso mon, to lay a finger upon any improper act of mine. I know, moreover, that those men cannot sustain the charge, but if they can I ought most cor tsinly to be disbarred.

Therefore, I want a speedy examination. Mr. Frost Don't bo playing Bahcock. Mr. Dally (indignantly) I wish to hold no oonvorsa tion with you, sir, at all.

Be kind enough not to ad drcsB any remarks to mo. Judge Semler 1 will set tbe matter down for such tlmo as you may arrango. Mr. Dally I will havo no arrangement whatever with thiB man. Your Honor can set the mottor down for such an early day as you ploase, and at any time I am ready to moot the charges, I am ready now.

Judge Semler then said ho would fix tho hearing for Thursday next at 2 o'olock, and that he would roquiro all the parties to givo bonds for their appearance at that time. Mr. Daily sold if It wasjabeolutoly necessary bo oould, of courBO, give bonds, but as he was an oxtenaivo owner of roal CBtato himself he did not thins: tfley wouiu no required. Some discussion took place rolativo to tho matter, and Mr. Dally finally said that he would furnish security at tho office of tho District Attorney, and requested that tbo complalnantB be mado to urniah good and sufflciont surety for their oppoaranoo before thoy left the court.

Bonds for FtOBt and Wllkina were fixed at $1,000 each, and tho oase then stood adjourned, Mr. Dally, in a vory olrcumslautial statement of the facts, Informed tho reporter that since tho beginning of tho proceedings on behalf of his client, Mr. Cameron, ho has been harassed by a long Borios of vexatious suits, brought in overy oonceivablo manner, regular and irrogular, by Mr. Frost, as attorney for one or other of tho partieB be represented, until, at length, ho found it necessary to bring an action In the nature of a poaco bill, against Frost and his clients, Mlllnacht and WilkinB, in which action ho obtainod a temporary injunction restraining them from bringing any moro sotions, motions or proceedings of any kind involving questions which had already been Judicially determined in tho action in whloh Mr. Daly had ob tatned Judgmont.

Tnis injunction waB mado permanent about one month ago by Judgo Donahue, and Bluca thon Mr. Frost, it would appear, has been at hie wits' end to know how to revive the controversy la tho courts. Tho proceedings beforo JuatJce Semler, Mr, Daly says, is begun out of malice, and he claims that he has abundaut proof of the utterly vexatious character of tho charges. Mr. Frost is a gentleman advanced In years, wbo ovidently does not pride himself upon his personal appearance.

Hia hair appeared to bo in need ot combing, and a thorough brushing would havo reduced biB fighting weight considerably. It is proper to say that Mr. Daily is connected and associated with some of tho best people in New York City, and that bis probitv and honor havo never beforo been called in question by any proceeding. 20.YEY MARKET.

A woman about thirty yeara of age, and having a child in her arms, called at Baymond street jail on Saturday afternoon. Keeper Jnlien admitted her.

She asked if there was a man named Bnbensteln looked up there, and on being answered in tha affirmative, she stated that she was his wife and wanted to see bim. Bubenstels wu then keeping bis Sabbaib, and, according to custom, he never opens his month to utter a word to any one. Mr. Jullon told the woman this aot. "But, said he, "he will probably speak to you," and he at once conducted her to tho cell of the condemned man.

He was in the rear of bis cell aud was engaged in his devotions, end, although lie turned and looked at tha woman Just for an Instant as she peered through his cell door, ha never spoke, Mr, Jnlien told her that she Had better call again. She went there yesterday, and when aha arrived at the Jail Sheriff Daggett was in tbe building and he went with her to the cell. He ordered the keeper to bring Bubenstoin out of the cell into tbo corridor, and this was done. Bnbensteln gave a sharp, searching glance at the woman and her child, and then kept lOOkiUt al Sheriff Daggett. He seemed to avoid meeting the woman's eye.

The woman said I (jarnua to tte prisoner, "What I Dont you know me any more 7" Bubenslein answered never a word, but shook big head in the negative not at the woman, but at the Sheriff. "Do you mean to say that I am not your wife?" was the next question propounded by the woman. Another shako of tbe head was ber only answer. The woman gave a peculiar look at the man and seemed at a loss what to say next. She appeared to be surprised and indignant.

An embarrassing pause of a minute or two ocourred, whloh was broken by the Sheriff, who said, Rubenstetn, this lady says she is your wife, is that so?" "No, not" said Bubenatein, speaking for the drat time. "Is that your boy that she has got in her arms 7" "Nol" was the reply, and tha prisoner showed a desire to re enter his cell. The woman then addressed some words fn German to him, which tbe Sheriff did not understand, but Bubenatein only shook bis head as before. As he then turned to go into bis oell the woman eyed him soornf nlly and Bald "Very woU, I shall know what to do The Sheriff, after the woman passed out of the prison, questioned her and she Bald, I came away from tho old country with this man Bubenstoin be married me under tbe same of Morris Bubenstoin; this child is the only one that I have. When we arrived in this country wo settled down in New York, and we have lived there ever since.

I havo never been ont of New York, except on one short visit to the country." Sheriff Daggett told her that it was understood that BUBENSTEIN HAD A WIPE in the old country, and that he had bought a ticket and sent it to her to bring her ont here. "He has nothing ot the sort," said tbe woman, "that I know of. I came out with him from the old country. and be told me that he had been married, but that he was a widower and had one child, I have been living in Sheriff Btroet. Why the idea of biB saying I am not his wife.

I have had trouble with his folks ovor in Bayard street, because I would not sign certain papers," "How Is iU said the Sheriff, "that you have not boen over hero before 1" "Because," she replied, "I didn't know what bad become of him. I never thought that Pessch N. Kub ensteln waa my husband. I always knew bim as Mor ris Bubenstoin, and beside I cannot read the papers. I supposed my husband had abandoned mo.

Ho lef about Ave mouths ago." 'Ton are sure he is your husband said the Sheriff. "Yes, I am and this fa his child. His folks over la Bayard street have boen wanting me to sign certain papers, which I would not do. They talk about his being poor, why he and I have got jointly In the bank about $20,000, and ho can't got It without my oonsent, and because I didn't know wbore he was and wouldn't consent to bavo that monoy taken out of tho bank his folks in Mew York have abused me. But I know what to do sow.

The houso that his athor lives in in Bayard street la owned by him. He is a rich man. I shall never come back bore, though I would not como to see bim again." She tben went awBy, evidently very Indignant both at Bnbensteln and hia family. An Eaqlk reporter asked Sheriff Daggett what he thought of it 7 He said, "I don't know whether she is his wife or not, but I am satisfied that he knows her, and 1 bellore that child is bis. He evidently didn't want to Identify her.

"What sort of a looking woman was aho 7" "Oh, about thirty, not bad looking, and of a deoidod Hebraic cast of oountenanoe." DRAMATIC. The Brooklyn Theatre. Mr. Both era commences an engagement at the Brook lyn to night, and never did comedian enter on ne under more favorable auspices. It is Saater week, the season of holiday making, and Mr.

Sothern has never played in the Brooklyn Theatre before. Since ho last appeared tu Brooklyn he has been to Europe, has man aged a theatre, bronbgt out a new play and a new actress, bas played Dundreary hundreds of times, and convulsed the community in which ho might happen to be with bis practical Jokea and has, in fact, been a rolling stone, gaily tumbling around tho world, leading the life which only princes and successful actors can lead, gathering tbe pecuniary moss, too, all the time, despite the legend. If ever there was a favorite of fortune, it is this very Sothern. The story ot his first success has been told so many times that we suppose everybody knows it: Tho stupid Taylor's, wo believe), tbe insignificant part of Dundreary, the cron tlon of the character by Sothern, and its immedlato bit, and subsequently, tbe re writing of the play up to pretty nearly a level with the character. That la the brief synopsis of a success so remarkable, that la every material luxury Sothern has been able, slnoe he first played Dundreary, to vie with tho princes of the earth.

The conditions under which Mr. Sothern returns to Brooklyn, thon, are of the most favorable kind. It is really a pity that such a oharacter as Dundreary as Sothern has made him, bas not a better play for a vohl cle, but nobody cares a rush for any other character in it, or for the disposition ultimately msdo of them by tbo dramatist. They go to see Dundreary to laugh ovor his idiotic stammer and skip, his ludicrous lntensenesa over patent trifles, his eyeglass, his "widdles" and his letter to Brother Sam. They may sometimes take a little interest in eo Trswnord, but it greatly dopends upon wbo plays that truculent Yankee.

To night they will havo an opportunity of soelng Mr. Lamb in the part, and we believe it is one of the bast ibis admirable comedian undertakes. The entire cast will be as fol lows: Lord Dundreaiy. Aaa Sir Edward TrenehaTd Lieutenant Vemon, B. Captain Do Boots RHIumh mnA Tllnn lwln.

T. L. Donnelly reopens the Olympio Theatre on Fulton atreet to night, with an entirely new company, and at prices which seem ludicrously low.

Present Condition and Proupects. The Twenty fifth Anniversary of the Second Unitarian Churob, situated at tbe oorner of Congress and Clinton Btroots, will be celebrated next Thursday evening in that sanctuary. In conjunction with that ovent the Bev. John W. Chadwiok, pastor, delivered yesterday morning the anniversary disoourse, which was dosoly listened to by a largo, oultivatad audience Tho pulpit waa tastoluUy doooratod with many colored DowerB and ahurbs, which mado tho air aweet with their perfume.

Tho singing of tho choir, composed of a quartot, waa both sweet and elevating, and tbo music from the organ was superb. After tbe devotional exorclscB Mr. Chadwiok began his discourse, and aa a sort of introductory to it ho sketched the ministers, who had presided over tho Unitarian Socioty and those who had received calls but did not accept them. The place whore the Socioty flrst held its services was at the Brooklyn Femalo Academy, on the 20th of April, 1881, the lineal prodeces aor of the Packer Institute and occnpptDg the same site. The Society first extended i all lo the Bev.

A. P. Peabody. of Portsmouth, N. to be come nut no aoounou tne can.

ui. unw been next ongagod to preach, but for some reason oould not como, and ho sent the Hev. J. W. Ware, who proached the first sermon under the auspices of the Unitarian Sooioty.

Next rtftor Mr. Ware came Dr. Dowoy, who preached for several Sundays. In 1682, Jamos Freeman Clarko offered to come and preaoh lor aix months, but falling sick his services terminated. In November, 1852, a call was extended to Horatio Steb blns who declined.

In January, 1853, the Female Aoad emy was destroyed by Arc, and services were afterward hold for flvo years in the Brooklyn Athoneum. This year a call waa extended to Thomas Starr King, but was not accepted. Mr. Samuel Johnson and Mr. Samuel Longfellow both preached for a time in the Atbeneum.

In May, 1887, it was resolved to build a chapel on the site now occupied by tho ohurdh. Ground was broken for tho obapol In June, 1887, and the oom pleled odiflco was dedicated to tho uses of 5, 1668. Mr. Longfollow preached thododloauon sermon and in 1800 ho resigned his charge of the Sooioty, and on Sunday, June tho t4th, preaohed his farewell sermon. In tbe Fall of 1860 a call waa extended to Bev.

Mr. Potter, of Now Bedford, but he did not accept it. Thtf Society was successful in securing Oetavlus B. Frothtagham, of New York, for a while. Next to him came tho Uov.

N. A. Staples, of Milwaukee who preached for a Httlo over two years, and then came tbe present pastor, tho Bov, John W. Chadwiok. Mr.

Cliadwick spoko further of the cnurcn and himself aB follows TBE PASTOB'B INSTALLATION. You Invited me to eettle on tho 6th day of November, andl was Installed Wednesday evening, December 21. I have boon your minister twelve years come next September, nearly ball your lifetime as a Boolety. Mr. Collyer preached my ordination sermon, and ho has never proachod a better.

Mr. Longfellow's charge was a pure flame of oarnost eloquence, and Mr. Putnam who had come to tho Churoh of the Saviour, only a fow days bofore, gavo me tbo right hand of fellowship, which he has since withdrawn. Of the ministry thus happily begun, I shall say very little. I have reviewed it frequently on the anniversary of my ordination, of lencr war be than was modest.

It has been so muon to mo that I may have exaggerated your Interest in it. To the majority of those present, its character and incidents aro sufflolontly known. The most critical among you are not bo painfully aware of its defects as I am. Only of one thing I am certain. I havo given myself to you without reserve.

I havo had no motive, no ambition, but to eorvo you ialtfnlly in tho relations of preacher aud pastor, to seek for yon the purest viBlon of the truth and to report to yon that vision witn all possible pereuasweness, and I have loved you with an over aeepening auemiuu. i uav. uwu tifled with your Joys and sorrows, your victories and your mlsfortunos. Yonr Joy of love new born or newly wed, or fn some miracle of babyhood bas been my Joy aa well. Your fears havo been my fears, yonr dead bavo boon my dead.

All things considered, I find no call for you or me to be ashamed of what wo have accomplished during the twelve yeara of my muustry. The first months of it are to mo as a darkened room, in which my thought can never enter without pain. The shapes which I encounter are shapes of disappointment and fear, but with Bomo faces full of sympathy and reassurance lighting up THB QENEBAI, OlOOM, ail tho springs of inspiration seemed dried up within me The desire was strong in me and almost irresistible to break away from the whole miserable business. All this was a reaction from five years' Incessant overwork and a starvation diet. It was like the rising from tho dead to feel with the returning Bprina Vhe 'putac, ot thought quicken again.

During these, last years of hardship and economy wa have pretty nearly if not oulte held our own, and have done something that in i ifl rtimenlt to lmnrove noon. Our experience for the last few years would have been much harder if in 1872 the standing debt upon the ohurcb bad not been paid. This debt had been lessened a few hundred dollara within a year or two tlto tte building of the churob, making it $9,800, and here it stuckthi 1872, at whloh time the whole amount was raised and several hundred dollars in excess, but not enough to pay a floatinJ debt which, on January the flrst of the present year tn vLSflfl.fnr 12.000 of which anoth er mortgage had been givon on the ohuroh. But at your i uvin mraMn. annual meeting uauumj, uu in nni nniv raised the whole of tho amount.

but nearly $2,000 In addition, so that to day, tbe flrst umo in our quiotj, we aro OUT OP DEBT, and arA nnrA nf lr.enlni7 AO until the close Of tho Cen tennial year. You will see that the amount subscribed in 1812 was nearly two thousand more than that of the nrlfflnal subscrintionn for the bniidinff of the church. These various subscriptions, together with $2,000 spent a few years slnoe for repairs upon the chapel, have been substantial proofs of your vitality. Tbe payment of tbe church debt could not have been more timely. It could bardlv have been done at anv timo before and at anytime since the general crash of 1873 which came toon after, it must have been Impossible: I bats all debts, and those upon the ohuroh were hardly less a burden on mv snirit than if thev had been mv own.

How grate ful I am to you for lightening this burden to all ot yon who bad a hand to all ot you whose hearta were in it, and most of all to those who had the initial faith that these things could be done and pushed thom to their blessed consummation, stand last, i pray yon, in tbe liberty wherewith these have made you free, and bo not entsngiea agaiu yue oi vwjuuu.

269 Fifth street, Brooklyn, E. A Broo leer's Feca. In the City Court this morning, before Judge Reynolds, tho case of John O. Hoyt and Joseph A. Hoyt, agalnBt Edward Howe, came up for trial.

The plaintiffs ore real estate brokers doing business at No. 171 Broadway, New York. They allogo that in December, 1671, the defendant employed them to sell or exchango for him a certain piece of property located near Princeton, Mercer County, New Jorsey, and known as the "Schenok Farm." That in pursuance of that agreement, In March, 1873, tho plaintiffs effeoted an exchange with William Lowder for certain houaes and lots located in Brooklyn. That at the timo of said agreement it was agreed that for effecting suoh sale or exchange tho plaintiffs were to rooelvo J500 for suoh services. No part of this amount has been paid and they therefore sue for that amount.

The defendant claims that owing to an inoumbranoo upon the property of tho Lowders, which prevented! hem from consummating tho exchange, the arrangement fell to the ground. He also claims that the defendants wore acting for the Lowders, and therefore under that dual employment, they cannot recover. The plaintiffl, however, claim that the defendant bad full knowledge of such action. The case has been tried once before a referee, and tbe Special Term refusod to confirm the report. Case still on.

This morning a protest was in circulation in the Court House for Bignaturoa against the passage of an aot entitled "An Aot to reduce the expenses of Judicial sales in the County of Kings," which was introduced in the Assembly by the Hon. Jacob Worth, and ordered to a third reading on April 14. A large number of signatures was obtained, A reporter of the Eaole asked Sheriff Daggett about the blU, Be said that all there was In was that it was an aot to reduce judicial expenses in Kings County.

It provides that sales of real estate underforeoloenre BhaU be mado by tbo Sheriff, and it fixes bis fees. The most that It oan amount to in any one case, where everything happens that can possibly happen, $3t. The Items are; Beceiving order ol sale and posting notices, $10; attending sale, $10; deed of each parcel sold, adjournment at request of plaintiff, paying over Burplus moneys, $3, together with tho usual fees for advertising. Heretofore, by law these sales hare been made by refereos appointed by tho JudgeB, often at the request ot tho parties. It provides that the sales shall be made in public Mr.

Daggett did not deny that the law would bo a pecuniary benefit to the (Sheriff of the County, bui be claimed that it would reduce the expenses of judloia sales $15,000, a gain in the county. AN ALLEGED SUICIDE. Conflicting; statements About a Wo. man vrho is Alleged to have Jumped Off a Ferry Boat. On the return of the Second Precinct yesterday morning appeared a paragraph to the effoct that a young woman, dressed in a brown orersklrt, dark sack and hat, Jumped off tho rear part of the Fulton Ferry boat Hamilton, as she waa nearlng the Brooklyn side.

The pilot and deck bands of the boat say they know of no such occurrence, but several of the passengers say that they saw the woman jump off. The policeman at the ferry beard the rumor from some of the passengers aud reported it at the station House. The pilot says that he saw a log floating from tho direction of Martin's stores, and he believes that tho passengers wero mistaken, and believed that it was a drowning woman, especially tt had some shreds of bagging sticking to It. The passengers, however, aver that they saw tho woman pass out of the ladios' oabln, walk hurriedly to the rear of tbe boat and then folding her hands across Iter breast deliberately jump off. An alarm seems to have been given, but as no trace of any human being could be seen the boat was not stopped, and the pilot received some osnsure at tho hands of some of the passengers, Tho ferry people do not believe there was a suicide.

Yesterday afternoon an Englishman, about twonty five years of age, went to tbe ferry and made inquiry about the alleged suicide. He said that he had read the description and supposed that it was his wife. The ferry people oould give bim no Information, and what aeems stranger yet they do not know wbo he is, and do not appear to have taken tho trouble to find out either bis name or reaidenoe. If, therefore, there was a suicide, it will not bo cleared up until the body is found. STEWART.

Lessons From the Life of the Millionaire What Ber. V. BeWltt Talmnire said About tbe Merchant Prince Yesterday Mr. Talmago preaohed yesterday morning upon tho lessons to be drawn from the life and death of A. T.

Stewart, The great Tabernacle was Ailed to its utmost capacity. To making bis announcements previous to the sermon, Mr. Talmage gave notice of the lecturo of Mr. Wm. H.

Muldoon on "Bohemians," at tho Academy of Music, on Tuesday night, and in that connection said "The ability of the lecturer, and his capacity to enter tain an audienoe, will make it a rare occasion. I hopo there may be a great audienoe on Tuesday nigbt in the Academy of Muslo to hear Mr. Muldoou's lecture." THB 8EEMOK. Do Witt Talmago preaohpd, taking his text as follows, from Psalms 16 18: "Be not tbou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased for when ha dleth he shall carry nothing away; his glory BhaU not descend after him. Though while ho 11 rod he blessed hia aoul and men will praise thee, when thou doest wall to thyself." Tbe reverend gentleman said On last Monday, as the business of tbo secular week was opening, and the cooled wheels of New York life were warming up in their first revolution, a telegram startled Wall atreet.

thrillod the bourse, waa felt at London, Berlin and Vienna, and stunned the commercial world, T. Stewart is dead." If the mansion at Thirty fourth street and Fifth avenue oonld not call out the monster Death, neither can you auc oessfullv resist him. If all the wealth of Stewart, Aa'tor and the Bothschilds bad been put in one coin, and that coin had been offered as a bribe, Doath would have taken tha coin and tossed it up In the palm of his hand and then let it drop carelessly through his skeleton Angela, erring out: "I don't want that, 1 came for yon," and, rubbing bis hands over the eyes they would close, and over tbe lnngs they would cease, and over the heart it would stop. "They that trust in their wealth and boast themselves in the multitude of their riches, none of them can by any means rodeem his brofhor, nor give to God a ransom for bim that he should lire forever and not Bee corruption." "The wise man dieth and likewise tbe fool and tho brutish person and leave their wealth to others." I realized as never before, Btanding in tbe presence of that catafalque, that whon a man goes into fho world ha cannot take bis money with bim. This merchant prince carried not so much into the eternal world as he brought when a young man from Ireland to this country, qevhas not bo muoh money to day as in those days when no was his own errand boy, bookkeeper and salesman, and lived over bis store and made one room do for kitchen, bedroom and parlor.

The debt of nature was so great that it took his $50,000,000 to pay it. It all the old merchants of Hew York that died twenty yeara ago, having during life managed the wealth of that great city, should come back now, they could not, out of their present resources, get enough together to pay for a meal at Dolmonlco's.
