This morning the opinion of thi; Court, prepared tiy
Judge Allison, who is now absent from I he city, was
read by his Honor Judge l'eirce, and Is as follows:
OPINION BY JUIH1R ALLISON.
The Legislature at Its late session passed an act
entitled "A Supplement to the Act relative to the
flections of this Commonwealth," the twenty
seventh section of which requires the assessors of
the several wards in the city of Philadelphia, before
the first day of June In each and every year, to make
out a separate alphabetical list, for every election
tlivision within tin-Irrespective wards, of tin- tiuall
Oeil electors residing therein, and to classify them
under the following heads:
First. Private householders.
Second. Private residents.
Third. Hotels, taverns, and restaurants. I'nder
the third designation the assessors are directed to
make alphabetical lists of the names of all uualilicd
electors residing in each division keeping hotels,
taverns, sailor boarding-houses, or restaurants in
the division, designating every such place by the
member of the house and the name of the street on
which it is located, and assess ou every such person
a tax of fifty cents.
The assessors are also commanded not to place on
the lists the name of any person boarding at any
hotel, tavern, sailor hoarding-house, or restaurant,
or the name of any person who is not a qualltlcd
elector, having a fixed residence in the division.
The meaning of these requirements, In the Jndg
ment of the majority of the Court, is very plain. The
assessors are commanded to make out a separate
list, to be headed hotels, taverns, and restaurants,
and on this list to place the name of no person ex
cept he be the keeper of a hotel, tavern, sailor boarding-house,
or restaurant. To make this intention
clear, they are enjoined not to place on such list the
name of any person boarding at either of the kind of
designated nouses mentioned in the section, with the
further restriction that the name of no person shall
be placed on said list unless he shall he a qualified
elector, and be possessed of a fixed residence in the
division. This last restriction has relation to tin
keepers of hotels, taverns, sailor hnarKng-houscs, or
restaurants, and js to be Interpreted as if it read,
"Nor shall the name of any keeper of a hotel, tavern,
sailor boarding-house, or restaurant be placed on the
list unless he Is a qualified elector, having a fixed
residence in the division."
It Is clear that the language tiere employed, as well
as by the spirit and Intention of the Legislature, the
name of no person can be lawfully placed on this
list by the assessor but the keepers of such houses
as are specifically mentioned, who possess the further
requisite of being qualified electors, and who reside
in the division.
I Boarders are expressly excluded ; nor do we think
the distinction well taken which was attempted to
be maintained in the argument, that this does not
exclude lodgers at such places. It is contended that
the Intention of the Legislature was to exclude per
sons who take meals merely at such hotels, taverns,
pallor boarding-houses, or restaurants, and not such
persons who might sleep or lodge at this kind of
house, but we find no warrant for this deduction.
The law docs not say that boarders shall not vote,
but that lodgers shall. Lodging is included in the
word or term boarding, in plain and common usage.
When we say of one that he is boarding at a particu
lar place, we mean that he lives at such a place, and
that he there sleeps as well as takes his meals; and
when it is plain to our mind that the purpose In pars
ing this portion of the law was to restrict the list to
Keepers of one or the other of the Mud of houses
named, we do not feel justified in setting this inten
tion aside to assume the functions of the
Legislature, and interpolate that which the law
makers Intended to exclude. We do not feel
under obligation to do this, because there
exists no necessity for our so doing. No oue is de
prived of any right by this requirement, for if there
be qualified electors boarding at these houses, ample
provision is made for their assessment ; time certain,
with abunduHt opportunity, is provided by the subse
quent provisions of the act, at which their names
can be placed on the list and a tax assessed agalust
them. We have nothing to do with the wisdom of
an act which provides for an assessment of one class
of voters at one time and in a given manner, and
another class at another time and In another man
ner. It is certainly competent for the Legislature to
establish a system provldiug for registration and as
sessment of voters ; and if they say that different
classes shall be assessed at different points of time,
what right have we by judicial construction to forbid
what they have commanded, and direct the assessors
to violate the clear and express directions of the
law ?
It will not be questioned that It would be within
the scope of legislative authority to require all per
sons to apply to the assessors to have their names
placed ou the lists, as has been the case with the
extra assessment, and if, instead of saying that all
shall in person apply to be assessed, that only those
who are living at particular places, not being private
householders, or private residents, or keepers of
particular kinds of houses, shall do so, what wrong
is there in this, or who say that the law shall be of
no effect? Certainly not a court, whose (buy it is to
try and give effect to every part of the act, if it can
be done without doing violence to the law as it has
leen enacted, or to the fundamental or constitu
tional rights of the qualified voters.
Whether any other assessment is to be taken or
list made out by the assessors, for the purpose of
establishing a basis of apportionment for members
the legislature, State or national, or for city repre
sentation in Councils, we do not now decide, because
the question Is not now before us. The act under
consideration was passed for election purposes ; its
title recites its purpose; and whether the former
laws, looking to the assessment of all white free
men, for the objects above designated, are
or are not repealed, will lie considered
when the question is properly presented. Our
brother Ludlow thinks that all lodgers should be
assessed, If they are qualified electors, residing at
hotels, taverns, sailor boarding-houses, or restau
rants, or If this be not done, the assessor should make
out another list of all the white freemen residing in
the several election divisions. We have expressed a
different opinion upon the first point. I'pon the
second we do not say anything, because the question
has not been raised or argued.

HKLI.KKH lHAWN OVER THK COALS,
This morning the Grand Jury came into Court and
made the following special presentment:

to nav for a license can obtaiu one, without regard
to previous character of the applicant, or to the
miM,w.r of similar houses already established in the
Hut the Jury would fel themselves to bo derelict
in duty, and recreant to the solemn obligations which
they have assumed, did they hesitate to present, the
unreitrictrd mle of intoxicating drink, whether leoal or
illcaal, n the (treat mnirne of crime in our miiM.
Whenever the community shall bo thoroughly
aroused to the demoralization which Is steadily pro
gressing, and whenever the tax-payers shall be fully
convinced that a very large portion of the taxes
which they pay are virtually for the support of this
favored class, we may hope that, at least a partial
remedy In the form of astringent license law will be
applied. I'ntll that time we may build houses of
correction and extend our Jails to no purpose, as
crime must steadily Increase wlUi the Increase of its
cause.
In addition to the licensed houses, the Grand Jury
learn from oillclal sources that there are a very large
number of houses where liquor Is sold without a
license, unci In defiance of law. They are further
advised that it Is by law made the duty of the con
stables In the several wards to make returns under
oath to the Clerk of the Court of (Quarter Sessions
upon the first Monday of every month, giving the
number of places In their wards In which liquor is
sold by retail, with the names of the owners and the
location ; and also of all places where liquor Is sold
without a license, or In w hich the license is not hung
tip and exhlbted, as well of other matters specified
In the same law. For the making of these returns
the constables are to receive a fee of $1 foreacti
licensed house, to be collected and paid over by the
clerk of the court, and for failure to make such re
turn the officer Is liable to Indictment for perjury,
and upon presentment by the (irimd Jury the court
may impose a tine. From evidence given before
tlic'm the jury find that whilst the constables of the
various w arils have received the above-mentioned
fees, thev have not, upon the llrst. Monday of this
month, made the above returns as required bylaw,
and further, that, for many months back,
they have utterly failed and neglected
to perform their duty In this matter. And there
fore believing that, the sworn officers of the law are
especially bound to keep and observe the laws, and
being Impressed with their own obligations and duty,
the Grand Jury do hereby call the attention of the
court to the facts as herein stated, that the Honor
able Court may make such order as Is proper in the
case. T. C. Husky, Foreman.
In reply, Judge Ludlow said:
Gentlemen of the Grand Jury : Your presentment
I have read carefully and specially, and must say
that, your remarks are of a character to merit public
attention. My colleague whose terra it is to preside
in this court Is necessarily absent from the city, but
I mav say that in calling your attention to the fruitful
causes of crime in this community he has done
what Is frequently the practice, and the views con
tained lu his recent Instructions to you meet with
the approval of every Judge of this bench, and think
you state the law correctly In saying that those who
sell liquor by license have the sanction of the law,
and are therefore not presentable here; but there is
another aud very large class of dealers,
consisting of those who sell without
license, and against, these the law Is directed. I will
call the special attention of the District Attorney to
what von say, and he will no doubt take the proper
steps 'in the matter, and I will also direct this pre
sentment to be tiled of record in this Court.

From. Our Own Correspondent.
Nkw York, May 27, 18C0.
Wrecks, explosions, tires murders, suicides,
assaults drowning, run-overs, sudden deaths
robberies, defalcations, fraudulent transfers
behold the aspect of the kaleidoscope at
present. Writers like Don Tiatt, who have
been reeking In Washington for indefinite
terms, come here and call the city Sodom. They
re not complimentary, and they do not speak the
entire truth. We are not quite so bad as the clues
of the plain, and with all our wickedness we have
hough Lots to redeem us. Hut we are quite bad
enough. Counting all New York as our neighbor,
the motes in that neighbor s eye are exceedingly
many. Any statistician wishing to gather criminal
data will not often have a better chance here than
he has now. The hands of coroner, judge, jury,
detective, and police reporter are full. The pri
soners' box teems ; the courts overflow; the prisons
reek. The feeble Vidocqs of Mulberry street are
'working up" themselves more than they are capa
ble of working up the cases intrusted to them. If
anybody would be so good as to invent a new crime-
thrilling, blood-curdling, and yet altogether unpre
cedentedreaders of morning papers would feel
thankful. Anything but this plethora of old sensation.
n "muggy" weather the Decalogue is not extensive
enough, and the excitement-yearning reader vainly
wishes that there were more comman.lmeuts to
break.
In the first, place "Brickbat Jimmy," a notorious
rutllan of the Fourth ward and a member of "iieddy
the Blacksmith's" gang, has been arrested after as
saulting an officer on Chatham street, and seriously
damaging his scalp In a tomahawkish manner. In
the next place, the police Douglass has been bearded
in his very hall; Commissioner Brennan's private
office, at police headquarters, has been brokeu into
and robbed, and the thief has escaped. Next, a tier
man sailor, armed with a Japanese clasp-knife one
footjlong, made a murderous attack upon his confid
ing boarding house keeper, and the only cause alleged
was a long continuance of unmitigated hash. New
York hash, like Indian hasheesh, seems to
drive the eaters of it mad. Then, In
mc of the suburbs, a young man named
Starr shoots himself four times before he accom
plishes the feat of suicide that evolution upon the
flying trapeze of death which lands one upon the
pedestal of eternity ! Then a coroner's Jury hands
in a verdict to the effect that Alexander Llppman
was billeted to death by persons unknown. Next,
two men named Byrnes and Bradley are stabbed,
both dangerously, aud one mortally, by three Spanish
sailors, mooning about after midnight. Next, a long
standing feud between John Purcell and William
Kleruau is terminated by the latter being shot dead
by Purcell In Sheriff street. As a piquant finale,
two boys quarrel over a game of marbles, and one
of them stabs the other dangerously with a penknife.
Kemember that most of these cases occur wlthlu
twenty-four hours of each other; and add to them
the destruction of life by recent wrecks, tires, explo
sions (till occurring in and around New York
within the lust two days), and the amount of
remorse, agony, shame, aud distress of
every kind entailed by the numerous cases of defalca
tion, robbery, and casualty, all occurring within a
similar length of time, and you will have a revolting
picture of metropolitan suffering aud sin.
The loss of the steamer Norwalk In East river, the
explosion of the steam-tug William Parks and Injury
of three of her men, the running down and sinking
of the Austrian ship the Figlla Muggiore, the fire at
Bull's Ferry, lu which one hundred thousand dollars
worth of property was lost, the fire at Mr. Whitney's
livery stables, In Brooklyn, occasioning the loss of
seventy-five thousand dollars lu carriages aud veloci
pedes; the Hunter s Point petroleum lire, on the
premises of the Devoe Manufacturing Company,
Fulton street, In which hundreds of thou
sands of dollars worth of property
were sacrificed; the victimization ol
the president of the Greenwich Savings Bank to the
tune of thirty-live thousand dollars; the posthumous
defalcation to the amount of two hundred thousand
dollars of the late William Kushmore, president of
the Atlantic Bank (Brooklyn) ; and the absconding of
Scott amlMuuaou, Wall street brokers, with sixty.
fiYt) ;UQUuna dollars, ill Ult-giU jjuUls-tlieso coin.
plete such a list of disasters and scoiindrclisins m
Is not often made up even In New York. If the Devil
have a sense of the ridiculous, he must sntter gloom
ily in his sleeve at these dreadfully tragic fanvs
w hich are being enacted In the me'.rop )litan dis
trict Now does the realm of city life begin to droop and
fade. Country residences are gloated over by sub
urban seekers; those verdant-breathing advertise
ments which promise pure air, new milk, fresh eggs,
cheerful rooms, and easy access to the city, at mode
rate terms, are carefully scanned. The sidewalks of
Broadway are bright, clean, delicate, and vivid with
well-dressed men and women, attired with equal
taste and beauty in their several ways. Saratoga,
Niagara Falls, West, Point. Long Island, Staten
Island, Coney Island, have opened, or will open by
next Tuesday, their hotels, the board varying from
twelve to twenty dollars per week. I never envy the
enjoyments of past generations so long as, with
nothing to trouble me In mind or body, I am per
mitted to walk or ride along Broadway, admiring the
human panorama there endlessly spread out before
me, or to make a day's Junketimr to one of the green
hollowed suburbs that beautifully frill the city, like
lace on a pocket-handkerchief.
1 have It from the best authority that there is no
truth at all In the rumors started by sensational pa
pets here In regard to the Perlt or the Arago. The
Perlt has sailed for Kingston, Jamaica, and upon her
return will be placed on the St. Domingo line. I
might mention, by-the-by, that Messrs. Spoll'ord,
Tllcston .V Co., of this city, ar; about starting a new
West India line of steamers.'the pioneer vessel of
which, ttieTybee, is advertised to sail June 2. The
points embraced In the route are Samanu, Port-au-Phitte,
and, In fact, all the ports of any note in the
Dominican republic. The days of departure are not
as yet determined upon, but will be designated before
another week has elapsed.
The Central Park Garden open-air concerts, under
Theodore Thomas, are now In lull blast, the price of
admission having been advanced ten cents above
that of last slimmer. The extra ten cents, I pre
sume, go towards satisfying the demands of Mr.
Levy, the cornet soloist, A repressed spirit of can
can pervades these open-air concerts. Few women
are there. Some German femiuines sprinkle them
selves at the luger-beer tables. They dote on Mr.
Levy, and the Teutonle clement is satisfied with lis
tening to his "tot"-on-ic efforts on his Instrument.
Madame Tostee will permanently withdraw from the
Fifth Avenue Theatre, and from the United States,
after next Saturday. I am not posted as to the par
ticulars, and it would be unfair to hint my sus
picions. But I see that Irma is elaborately
announced in the advertisements as the French
nightingale, and considering that she has
assumed the directorship, I put this and that to
gether, aud deduce my own conclusions. No ac
tress on the New York stage can blink her eye and
toss her head with half the pretty impudence of
I.utlle Tostee, and her departure will be the loss of
the public aud Fisk. Mr. Booth read "Manfred" yes
terday afternoon at his theatre. The Philharmonic
Society assisted him with music, and an audience,
which was not composed mainly of the rfcmi-iiwn,
us too many matinee audiences are, assisted him
with very discriminative applause. Chilprric is going
to be produced at the French Theatre. The plot Is
travestied from medieval history. The Laurl troupe
Is underlined for Wallack's, and the public Is threat
ened that they unite the excellencies of the French
Kavel school with those of the English Grimaldi.
An extremely interesting paper, recounting the
history of the 78th Highlanders, was readbefore that
regiment last night at the hall of the Caledonian
Club, by Captain Dingwall. It may be remembered
that the T9th Highlanders was a three months' regi
ment, and that it mutinied near the city of Washing
ton in 1S01, because of the sudden and unexpected
revocation of an order for Its dlsbandment. It
served for three years, from 1801 to 1864, and per
formed so me of the best scrvicj seen during the
war.

THE ALLIANCE.
Yliat wns Said and Thought of the Kutior In
Knifbind-Some InterCHtiuH Facta llise to the
Surface.
Says the Tribune' London correspondent on the
l:sth instant:
The fact which at this moment dwarfs all other
facts Is the beginning of negotiations for an alliance,
offensive and defensive, between England, France,
and Spain against, the United Status. This I tele
graphed to you two days ago. It is still a secret in
Loudon. I shall say nothing of the sources of my
information, nor can I add much to the original
statement. I do not kuow who set this project ou
foot whether it was started in England or
France; whether conceived in the brain of a
usurper responsible already for so many
mischiefs, or by some British tool of his who fancies
he has Inherited the mantle of Pulmerston, and can
add another link to the many the old Premier forged
in the chain which binds England to Napoleon. But
it seems to have sprung up suddenly. It was hatched
by the heat of English passion glowing red-hot
against America these last fourteen days. Of course
It grew out of the Alabama. It matters little whether
uu English Minister, alarmed by the sudden fear of
meeting just such demands, turned for refuge
to the old enemy of England; or whether
Napoleon, In his alert way, volunteered the
stiKKcstion of a new alliance. It is the
fashion just now in European circles to resent
w hat is called the diplomatic arrogance of America.
Napoleon nurses his anger over the expulsion from
Mexico. Spain trembles for Cuba. England sees
her future daikeued by the shadow that has hung
over her and tuiralyzed her ever since the American
w ar ended. Lulled to sleep by Mr. Keverdy Johnson,
tdie has been rudely awakened by Mr. Sumner. She
dreads to lose Canada and her West India posses
sions. More than one public man has expressed his
regret that England rejected the offer of Napoleon to
recognize the Confederacy. They think It still possi
ble to retrieve, at least partly, that mistake.
France has possessions also in danger if Canada
falls to the Kepubllc.
But 1 believe they are In progress, and that if the
Alabama claims were to take the shape of a demand
or a menace, the resistance of England, which has
become certain, Is likely to be supported by France.
Whether a crisis would be precipitated by interven
tion in Cuba may be a more doubtful point. It is
known here that the Spanish Government feel them
selves strong .mougli to repel aggression in that
quarter. They have one, or it may Im two iron-clads,
built lu England, equal to the best ships atloat in
European waters, and able to sink a fleet of monitors
with their shingled sides of soft iron add their rickety
turrets. Probably our naval olllcers kuow well
enough w hut the fact Is.
I cuHiiot see that the popular feeling Is less strong
against what are now supposed to be the American
demands. Nor is it less strong in official circles,
a though one journal announces, as if by authority,
that no serious trouble is expected. I don't suppose
war is generally expected, in the Cabinet or out, nor
desired except by the party I have before called the
war party. But every trouble short of tuat is
dreaded. I know the feeling in the Cabinet has been,
and continues to be, one of great anxiety as thu
mere existence of a scheme for a triple alliance
would sufficiently prove. We have a report It wai
Sent to the iiidrjieiidniiee llehie. Olio of the most
trustworthy and best informed Journals in
Europe that Lord Clarendon responded to Mr.
Sumner's speech by notifying the American Govern
ment that England would adhere to the principle of
arbitration for all claims. You have better means
than 1 of knowing whether that bo true. I only
know it has been discussed. A great many things
have been discussed. One suggestion is at least
novel that an International Congress of the Euro
pean powers should bo held at Washington, Ame
rica, of course, to be represented, and an effort made
for a general adjustment of all matters outstand
ing. The plan of sending an English ambassa
dor t Washington with full powers to treat
is stiff viewed w ith favor by some leading men. A
good many names have been suggested, aud latterly,
with some emphasis, that of the Duke of Argyll.
Uilil Stanley lias been mentioned ; but Lord Stanley
wus the joint author of the first Johnson treaty, and
It Is by no means sure that the Government would
go outside Its own party for an envoy. Luckily,
Parliament adjourns this'week for a fortnight's holi
day, and nothing will be settled meantime. Before
there can be any debate there will have been time
lor sober thoughts.

A SENSATION.
Ml Kate CUhrr, the "Star," U ArrrMrd for
I.RrceuT -Jlnw th Kamnu .Mtti'upn Came
by a IJold YVatrh.
The New York Herald publishes this morning the
following:
'1 here was a theatrical sensation enacted yester
day afternoon at Essex Market Police Court. Under
the management of Justice Shandley, the old drama
Crmitfatnanf nnj liefnuiant was produced, with
Miss Kate Fisher (as the star) In the latter charac
ter, Mrs. Eliza J. Kevins appearing Ih the rule of
"Complainant." The east of characters supporting
these leading actresses was large, Mr. Howe appear
ingas the "Lawyer," Mr. N. B. Clarke as the 'BoniH
nian," Mr. Frellgh as "General Sympathizer," Mr.
J. J. Jones as Interested "Spectator," and ,a languid
looking youth named Najrle, elegantly dressed in a
light suit, acting as bodyguard to the star. Mrs.
hli.aJ. Kevins, who acted us complainant, was sup
ported by Mr. Stuart, Jr. as counsellor, and Mr.
James Kevins in the mle or husband. Mr. James
Steers acted as stage manager. The drama com
menced about a o'clock tind only ran about ten
minutes, and at the close of that lime the actors and
actresses left the court room. A little farce which
was not upon the papers was enacted outside the
building in which liustiand, complainant, lawyer,
defendant, and bodyguard took part, and which win
principally made up of delimit and somewhat un
complimentary lumiuage by the first two characters,
and defiant looks and contemptuous smiles by the
latter. The first act only of the drama was played
yesterday, but it is announced that the perform
ance will be continued at two o'clock ou Friday
altertioon.
'I he sensation arose from the following circum
stance : Mrs. Eliza J. Kevins appeared before Jus
tice Shandley, at Essex Market Police Court, on
Tuesday morning last, and asked for a warrant
against Miss Kate Usher, who was at that time, lu
company with her horse. Wonder, playing an en
gagement at. the Bowery Theatre. Mrs. Kevins
stale d that Miss Fisher had stolen from her a gold
watch and chain of the value of f-Aiti. The Justice
asked several questions and then instructed thu
clerk to take the lady's affidavit, which was of course
done. 1 his document reads as follows:
Kll7.ii J. Hnins, of the Contrevillu Hotal, long Inland,
bpinu ilnly sworn, di-pcnum nnd iiv : That on thu 16th day
of November, Iki, at. the city of Now York, in the county
of New York, the following artioleM, vi. : A gold watch
and chain ot tliu tuIiik ot ifjim, the properly of .1 anion he
vinn, wore telonimn-lj- taken, stolen, and carried away from
deponent's pimmHKion, and that the deponent has probable
cuumo to Mixpuct and does siixpect that the said articles
were so taken and stolen by Kate 1' intier. The said w.itoh
anil chain were stolen from deponent on the said day at
No. bt Kant Fourth street, while deponent was lying sick in
her boute. Deponent was informed by Delia Kevins, de
ponent's daughter, that, said Kato had taken the waicti
and chain, and the said Kat-e has since acknowledged to
deponent that she took the said watah and chain and
pledged them. The ticket for said wath and chain was
given to deponent by one Hemming, said to be an agent
lor said Kate Finher.
On the strength of this affidavit a warrant was
Issued aud placed by Justice Miaudley In the hands

AFIUCA.
Considerable Interest must lie felt by all English
men (says the London Daily Xe.tcn) in the new enter
prise upon which Sir Samuel Baker has already
started. No authoritative statement has been made
of the objects of the expedition which our great tra
veller Is to command ; but It is known that he intends
to traverse the district watered by the White
Nile, and that he will endeavor, by such means
as may lie afforded him, to bring the people of that
region more within the influence of civilization. He
goes at the head of a small army, admirably equipped,
which will no doubt be fitted in all ways to serve Us
master, the Viceroy of Egypt, lie will also have a
small flotilla of well-armed river vessels. It seems
quite certain that the Viceroy means to annex the
w hole of the White Nile territory, and that in doing
so he intends to abolish the truffle in slaves, which
is at present the great curse of that region so highly
favored by nature.
To accomplish his purposes he has secured the
services of Sir Samuel Baker, w ho has accepted the
command In an earnest and humane spirit. It is
probable that his mission w ill not be accomplished
without the necessity of severe lighting with some of
the tribes to whose homes he will penetrate; but, if
that should occur, we may lake for granted that the
English commander will have reason ou his side,
and that war will cease us soon as the object which
made it necessary has been attained. As he pro
ceeds on his route, Sir Samuel Baker will establish
stations at certain points, the better to secure the
subjection of the several tribes, and or peace be
tween tribe and tribe.
It was understood that Sir Samuel would not leave
England until after the anniversary dinner of the
Hoy al Geographical Society on the 24th of May, and
ut which he intended to make some statements re
specting the object of his new visit to Africa. That
intention, however, has been frustrated, for early
last week he received a telegram from the Viceroy
of Egypt which led to his immediate departure. He
left London on Thursday, the Olh Instant, without
being able to complete all his contemplated arrange
ments. Iu his new work, the only connecting link
between the explorer and this country will be the
Koval Geographical Society, to which ho will from
time to time transmit reports and letters on mutters
of geographical and other scientific Interest. In
order that he may be thoroughly equipped for the
work, the Uoyal Geographical Society is gathering
together and will forward to hlin a complete set of
such Instruments as are of use to an explorer.
DELAWARE.
She Ih not Kid of Slavery Yet The Fifteenth
Amendment.
Says the Wilmington Commercial of yesterday:
At the session of court for this county, at New
Custle, on Monday, the case of Khoda Handy vs.
Thomas Jefferson Clark, came up fur trial.
The plaintiff is an old colored woman, who was
bought by the defendant, living In the lower end of
New Castle county, as a slave, some thirty-six years
ugo. She and her daughter (who brings a similar
suit us this) remained In servitude up to last Sep
tember, Ignorant of the fact that the "Year of
Jubilee" hail long before arrived. They were em
ployed in severe larin labor, as well as household
service, and upon accidentally learning that they
liiol been Illegally held, since the ratiticatlon of the
lMh uuicndnient to the National Constitution, com
menced these suits on a claim for 142 weeks' wages.
The counsel in the case were Wlllium C. Spruauce,
K:-q., for plaintiff, and Hon. Thomas F. Bayard for
defendiiiit. The testimony of the daughter was
offered iu the mother's case, ivhen Senator llityard
promptly objected that by the law of Delaware the
evidence of colored persona in this case was Inad
missible. The Court, however, ordered the evi
dence to be taken, Chief Justice Gilpin (who wua not
trying the case) Informally suggesting that the pas
sage of the fourteenth amendment conclusively set
tled the point us to the right of colored persons to
testily. It was left to the counsel for the defense to
take exceptions If he saw proper, aud urguo the
question In the Court of Errors and Appeals.
The argument In the case consumed ull of Monday
uiteriioou, and the Jury was out when the Court
adjourned. They returned yesterday a verdict for
plaintiff for f'.'iu. lu the case of the daughter a
judgment for her claim was then obtained.
More Hydrophobia.
The same Journal also says: A cow belonging to
a Mr. Lynch, who works for Jessup A Moore, ami
resides ut Uockluud, went mad day before yesterday,
aud became very violent. She was immediately
killed. She Is said to have been bitten by Mr. Elliott's
dog. on Monday last a dog lu the Sixth ward
(llrandywine), belonging to Samuel Smith, Jr., who
was known to have been bitten by Moore's dog (the
oue who bit the three children) began to behave In a
singular manner. Yesterday morning he again com
menced to act strangely, ami started ou a run down
Market street, his tongue swollen, aud he frothing at
the mouth. Mr. Edmund Gruhh saw him, stepped
oiit Into the street, and shot him, killing him
Instantly. This dog is said to have bitten one or
two others before he was killed. The people are con
siderably excited, aud not a little exasperated, over
the fact that several other dogs known to have been
bitten by Moore's dog are still at large. One of them,
a bull-dog belonging to Stephen Lewis, is a largo and
powerful brute, and he belongs In a neighborhood

The New F.iiKlnud Women's .Suffrntte Con
vein Ion
which was held here last night adopted the fol
lowing: liesoloeil. That the Executive Committee of
the New England Woman's Suffrage Association
be authorl.cd to correspond with the friends of
the cause throughout the country, and to take
such steps as they may deem best for the
organization of a National Woman's Suffrage
Association during the coming year, in which all
parts of the country shall be fully and fairly
represented.
Mrs. Julia Ward Howe read an elaborate essay
upon the question of woman's position in the
social and political world.
After some remarks of a general character she
referred to the fact that, in England, the admis
sion of women to suffrage seemed open to less
objection than here ou tho part of the powers
that be, since the vote there was conditioned
upon tho possession of a certain amount of pro
perty, nnd the possession of property by woman
seemed to make legitimate her claim to vote.
Here, however, the claim was based upon the
fact of womanhood simply, and therefore in
volved considerations of a broader character and
would meet with greater opposition.
She alluded to the condition of those ladies
who had no husbands, or a prospect of them, as
seeming to live upon sufferance, and their live
generally are considered to go to the side rather
of loss than of profit. From this point she
branched off to the topic of the expensiveness of
women on account of prevailing fashions and
social usages. This condition of things made
many women to be merely sources of expense,
consuming much and producing nothing. She
did not, therefore, immediately urge upon women
to be "belles" no more, but would rather rost
upon men the responsibility of this condition of
things. The dependent condition of women,
and the lack of any other sphere of action and
ambition than that of ball room aud parlor, was
her excuse.
Brief addresses followed by William Lloyd
Garrison, Lucy Stoue, Mrs. Llvermore, and
Whiting Griswold, the chuirmnu of the legis
lative committee who reported In favor of
female suffrage. The convention then ad
journed. Xbe New York money Market.

'The features of Interest In Wall street to-day were
a fall in gold to 139 aud a very determined 'bear'
attack upon the stock market. The opening price
of gold w as In the vicinity of I40i. From this point
there was a steady decline to the point first indi
cated. The cliques, with one or two exceptions, have
sold their gold, and the market Is settling to lower
figures as a consequence of this influence, as well as
through the natural reaction from the recent excited
advance. There is no action without reaction. Values
In Wall street aud in the world generally seek to pre
serve their equilibrium. When gold went up It set
free a vast quantity of produce and exportable
goods which were lying in the lofts of our
commission shipping houses. These have made ex
change bills plentiful, and specie payments seem
more remote by several weeks, while it is not a very
long time to tho 1st or July, when the Government
will disburse another heavy instalment of gold In
terest on the five-twenties. tSome shrewd statisti
cians have also discovered that the balance or trade
for the fiscal year ending June ao, if not in our favor,
will not be very lurgely against us. Then, agaiu, the
attitude of Oeneral Grant In the matter of the Ala
bama claims is one which dissipates every chance
of trouble with (ireat Britain. The 'street' is talk
ing lower gold. They re-echo what the cliques say,
and, continuing each other by their mutual doubts
ol a higher premium, sell their 'long' gold and go
'short' a little also to make up any losses which thev
sutlered In the decline. The fact is Wall street is In
fluenced by the cliques. The latter have the capital
to force the smaller operators into their ranks or to
ruin them If they rebel. The recent somersault lu
the market was beautifully performed. It mav be
that the change was dictated by a reutlv sagacious
foresight ol present events. If not, then the luck
which attends their operations is something curious,
for how else can we regard the fortuitous coinci
dence with their schemes of General Oram's policy
and like circumstances inimical to an advance In tho
premium? The report that Secretary Boutwell
would cancel three per cents was also used, trifling
as wus, or might be, its Influence In depressing tlio
price.
"The loan market was heavy, and borrowers of
gold wishing balances curried over for them were
toinpciicii 10 allow seven and eight per cenu m" '
on the currency collateral. This was the average
range of rates, 'but business was done as low as six
and exceptionally at three per cent. .

reflective of the lower price of gold. The follow

The monotony of the money market is still nnrc
llcvcd by any new developments. There Is a story
in circulation that Secretary Boutwell will cancel
three percent, certificates with a portion of the pro
ceeds of his weekly sales of gold. As there Is no
way of ascertaining the real Intentions of the Secre
tary on the subject, the effect on the market was to
depress gold as well us the Government stocks.
Whatever course he may think fit to pursue on the
subject, the people may rest assured that the public
Interests will be paramount, and that no step will
be token on so Important a matter without mature
consideration.
Loans reniHined unchanged at Ntf7 percent., ac
cording to collateral, and discounts at percent,
for prime paper well endorsed.
Government bonds are on the decline again, and
prices have dropped fully one-half per cent, from
opening prices. Gold is decidedly weak. The mar
ket opened Bt H9V., fell to ss'i,, atid rallied again to
HVi at which price it was selling ou Third street
