Bpeaher Colfax announces that, on account of the certainty of uiKbt sessions after tills week, tie Will give his last reception on Thursday next. The Test Oath. This morning Clilof Justice Cartter, of tho Dis trict Supreme Court, delivered tha opinion of tee Court on the application of Allen 11. Miigru Jer, and other ex-Kebels, for admission to the bar connected with a motion to rescind the xnle which provides thnt each applicant for ad mission to the bar shall, before being admitted, lake and subscribe the Lawyers' Test Oath. The Court denies the motion, holding that the derision of the Kupreme Court of the United states determining the unconstitutionality of this rule Is advisory not mandatory, and must le received upon the conditions upon which it V?as sent. These conditions, in the way of advice, are that a majority of that Court counsels the con demnation of the rule, while a minority of one loss thun the majority counsels Its support, leaving this Court to form Us own opinion -without any substantial uid from tho de cision. If we were to adopt the con clusion of the majority, It would be at the expense of condemning a law of Con- 5 reus, substantially upon the opinion of a single nstice of the Supreme Court; for tbe judg ment, after all, weighed in the balance, is re duced to the opinion of one Justice a result, "however binding, not very expressive of wis dom when applied to the condemnation of a law. In January term, 18y5, the Supreme Court of the United States, through Chief Justice Marshal, refused to take up the case of the Mayor of New York vs. George Mlln ana Geo. Drlour vs. the Commonwealth Bank of Ken tucky Oth Peters, 85 because the Court wan not full, in consequence of the resignation of Justice Duvall. Tills controversy of judicial opinion, largely attributable to political excitement, demon strates that the question In controversy Is so Involved with political considerations as to render it eminently proper that it should be referred back to the political power of the nation, and the law-making power which created be consulted on its modification or repeal. It is a question for legislation, and not for ad judication. The inherent rigtit of each Court to regulate its own rules of practice, including the terms of admission of attorneys anddlsmis ions from the bar, has come down to us un questioned through the long life of the common law. An appeal will bo taken from the decision of the Court to the Supreme Court of the United Stales, and it is believed that an attempt will be made on the Democratic side of lue House or uepresentatives loimpeacn Judge Cartter for resisting the decision ol the Supreme tJourt of the United States. The Conover Perjury Case. The counsel of Sanford Conover, alias Charles A. Durham, who was convicted yesterday ot yerjury in testifying before the House Com mittee on the Judiciary with refereuce to Jel lerson Davis, have moved for a new trial. .

THE GREAT FIKlfi IN NEW YORK. A. tl 1 111 o ii ill larticul arH. The Loss of Chittenden & Co. Mono $900,000. Etc., Ktc, Etc., Etc., Etc., Etc. 'special despatch to tbk evbninq telegraph.? New YoRg, February 12. Between 6 and 6 o'clock this morninp; a fire broke out in the dry goods store of 8. B. Chittenden & Co., south east corner ot Broadway and Leonard street, and completely destroyed the building and its contents. Tbe dry goods store of B. 8. JaiTray & Co., northeast corner of Broadway and Lconuid street, was also damnged to 'a con siderable extent by fire and water. The losses are extremely heavy, the stocks of goods being very large and valuable. Tbe loss is estimated at a million and a half of dollars. The largest proportion of the loss fell on the stoct of Messrs Chittenden & Co., worth perhaps nine hundred thousand dollars. The insurances are not lar Irom eight hundred thousand dollars, distributed among nearly all of the larger Insurance companies of the city. A full list Of three will be published as soon as obtained. The Liverpool and London and Ulobc Com pany had risks amounting to sixty-five thou sand dollars, forty-five thousand ot the sum being on Chittenden & Co.'s eoods. The Home Company is Interested to the extent of fifty thousand; the Queen, twenty-five thousand, llot of the risks, however, were smaller. The burned building was owned by the JLppletons, and is insured. Tbe losses on the stock of Messrs. Jaflray & Co. are estimated to be comparatively small, ranging between fiitv thousand and seventy-five thousand dollars, with ample insurance. The insurers will be called on lor only a small part nf the amount of their risks perhaps live per cent. The falling of the wall of the store of Chit tenden & Co., it is thought, saved the store of K. S. Jaflray & Co., by covering the flames to some extent, and making the work of the fire men easier.
