Virlesque Troupe having nearly finished It day
tn this cut, and being about to relinquish
the occupancy of the Chesnut Htreot
Theatre, that building will soon be yielded np
to workmen for remodelling. And It really needs
ncn a reconstruction, as even ita most infatuated
champions and patrons are compelled to con fens.

JKflKOE8 ASSAl'l.TKD BY POUURMKN At nOOn
to-day Recorder Glvln heard the cases of John B.
"Noonan and John McLaughlin, both p !'.cemen of
the Third district, who werj charged
with breaking Into the house of. Miss 1'rls-t-Ilia
Emerson (colored), No. CIS Middle alley, and
committing assault and buttery on that lady and
Clement llarred (colored).
Frmcilla Kmerson swnrn -I live In tho roar of No. CIS
Middle alley; know dtifondiints; about 12'j o'clock on
Thnmdny they came to my floor; they burntcd it npnn;
McLaughlin came up and grabbed m liy tlif br.mst, mid
drew me flown stairs, and struck me on tho shoulder with
blackjack; he did not. arrest me; they did nut show any
wurrant; Noonun did not attoinpt tostriko mo.
Clement llarred, rustiling in the sauin vicinity, tostiMod
I was present, on tho occasion of the assault on Mrs.
Rmerson; MIjU(jhlin wns dressed in citizen's cloths-. I
saw him burst the floor open and make the assault, on Mrs.
km err on, during which he drauKed her down the stairs;
I remonstrated with him, when be strnck mo in tho bice
r with bis flat ; ho then caught me, and attempted to strike
me with a blackjack ; he bad no warrant ; Noonan luorely
obeyed McLaiiKhlin in catching bold of me; I was
arrested.
Several witnesses were examined and corrobo
rated the above witnesses. Noonan was discharged
and McLaughlin held In $1000 ball, Alderman White
going bail.
Another charge was preferred against McLaughlin
Of assaulting Alexander Martin, a colored lad.
Annie Owens, residing at No. 621 Middle alley,
testified that Bhe saw McLaughlin on Wednesday
enter that house and Jerk the lad down the stairs;
he dragged the lad Into the yard, where he was
knocked down and struck over the head twice with
a blackjack by the policeman.
A number of witnesses corroborated this testi
mony, and the prisoner was held for trial.
The Strkkts. As the public learned several days
since (on the 1st of the months the warrants of a
number of the street contractors were withheld be
cause their districts had not been properly cleaned,
the action of the Hoard of Health iu this matter,
while it secured the approbation of the citizens, of
course could not fail in awaking disappointment, If
nothing more, in the minds of the contractors. Evi
dently some of them imagined, us under the old sys
tem, they could do as thev chose, clean or not clean,
and still receive their pay. When the first of the
month cartle, and their final reports showed their
sections yet far behind, they asked but didn't re
ceive. The Board of Health couldn't see the matter
In the same light, and pay was minus. The derelict
contractors, at anv rate some of them, were rather
, vehement In the language they employed when re
fused, but to no avail. Spurred on by the fear that,
In ease their districts were not broomed and sho
relled hastily thev would lose both pay and contract,
w.thln the past two or three days they have been
making superhuman exertions. Several of them
will probably, in consideration of the efforts they are
now honestlv muking. get their warrants In a few
days, but others stand a verv poor chance of retain
ing their contracts at all. Other parties, more capa
ble, experienced, and honest, will have to take their
places.

This splendid struuture is rapidly npprouclilng com
pletion. When finished It will be found to ho the
largest, most complete, and convenient edlllce of
the kind in tho country. Hut little remains to do

the Oiling of this large order, anil his good taste and
judgment are clearly discernible throughout the
whole extent of it.

i tie special or dor lor inn morning ueing reacneu, are
port I mm the ?imiu.tOD on the Organisation
ot Particular hynods was icsd by the cuAiruiao, Rev. J.
M. V. Holmes
It concluded with a series of resolutions, which were
considered erriatini and ft' lop ted substantially as fol
lows: -
1. Kimlvit That tho Synod considers it desirable to
form a new particular Synod, and that the Manses of Her
on, (South hergnn. Munnnmt h, iNew Krunswick, 1'aramus.
I'liilaJrlol tin, nnd I- a'ilan, be and are dtsinied
from the particular Snod of Now York, to constitute A
new particular mnoa.
Rev. W. .1. R. Taylor, P. !., of the Classis of Now York,
made an address lavoring the proposition, nnd gave his
reasons why the action proposed by tho committee should
be adopted.
I he resolution was aonpt'Mi, una conMdnranm discussion
akins Din co as to tho naiup l-y which the new Synod should
be Ui'Mgnated, it whh tiou.ly dctcminod to cull it too
Sxnodot New ifrunswit-k
Tho other repolutioriM re. erred to the appointment of a
timo for the meeting nt the now Svnnd, and the appoint-
mi1 nt of a cert h in nu-nhi r ! m nistcrs and olden to attend
the same, which were ml ptod, together with tuetoilow
ing: -
The Clases of Kincston an.l Orange aro to be transfixel
fnnn the hynod of Albany to tho particular 8ynod of New
1 orK.
Heifafter delegations from the several Claescs shall con-
siiHt ot 4, ministers and 4 elders.
The narticular Svnods arc hereafter to meet at Jo clock
in tho evening, the pynn.iiral sermon preached in tho
event ug, and the duties tor tho several days oetiuiteiy pre-
strnieo.
Rev. Dr. Phelns nrotestod acainst the attempt to direct.
tho proceedings ot particular ryunds by specitied rules
irom tuis itenerai nyiioo. woai ine noioruiea nurcu
wanted was liberty and not fetters, and ho was free to say.
that he disliked the idea ot tho particular Synods being
bound up in this mannor by synodical resolut ions.
Dr. Vermilye thought that it, inntead of agreeing to have
a service of a prescribed character, sayiug certain prayers
at certain hours, and other services as set forth, some
thing could be uoue to bring trie churches togetnor in a
spirit and feeling of common brotherhood, it would tend
more diroctlv to the advancement of rclurion.
Rev. IsaacS. Hartley thought that while the hours for
certain services, sermons, etc., might be agreed on. the
subject chosen for those particular occasions should not
be designated by this General ISynod, but that each par
ticular , Synod have authority to dispose of the subject as
heretofore.
l Dr. Holmes, chairman of the committee, defended the
resolution, saying it nad cont the committee mucn confine
ration snd Axietv. It- had been air reed on as one of the
most important features to Uo conducement of synodical
S regress. He save the reasons which to a great extent in
ueaced the committee in selecting 3 o'clock in theatter
noon for the hour of meeting instead of 10 o'clock in the
morning, and urged that such a course would prove of ad
vantage.
In relation to the dedication exercises to be held. he con
tended that the spiritual good which would emenate trout
them would be very great, and he believed that if the
action of the committee were set aside and a Simula reso
lution adopted to the effect that religious services be hold,
without naming them, too whole object and purpose ot the
committee weuld be lost.
Dr. Hartley proposed an amendment to tL resolution
of the cemmittee, substantially recommending that such
dnvotional exercises shall be held, and discourses breached
as shall be consonant to the leelings and desires of th
ebpecial neighborhood, und churched in winch sucu par
ticular rynouH ure nem.
Dr. Phelps proposed an amendment to tho amendment,
in effect stating that thn General Synod recommend to
the particular fcynods certain devotional exercises, which
said particular Synods limy or urny not accept at pleasure.
jn this manner there wouiu uo no conuict oi nuinority, ana
the particular bynod would use due cure in moving in a
matter ot so much importance.
Klder Jeremiah, from New York, was of the opinion that
the Synod had full and complete authority to prescribe
the services, and he beUevcd their doiotf so would be fouud
of general advantage and heneht.
Rev. Mr. Raally (from the Classis of Holland) made a
spirited address, contending against any attempt of the
(General ISynod to curb the action of the particular Synod.
Ho thought it appeared too much like the government of
the Pope of Koine, which possible fact lie especially
deprecated.
Rev. John O. Johnson thought if there was to be such a
fear of encroaching on the libetty of members as was ap
prehended from the former speaker, the result would be
after awhile that the Synod could not meet at all, until
the several members wero "moved by the spirit.'
Dr. Khnendorff moved to ly the amendments offered on
the table, which was agreed to. He then ottered the fol
lowing as a subst itute tor the ritfinal resolution:
At every meeting of the pait cular Synod a sermon Bhall
be preached, by the retiring President on'the lirst day of
the session, and on the second day of the session the
Lord's Supper shall bo administered and a sermon be
preached. J he preacher and his alternate and a theme
shall be tixed at the brecedimr annual session.
Rev. Mr. Hermanns moved the previous question, which
was not agreed to.
Rev. Dr. Van Cleef moved an amendment to the fore-
iroint?. that it ahull road a follows:
lirfotveii. That it be enjoined on the particular Synods
to transact their hustaews with due deliberation. a.uu to
hold such devotional services during their sessions as may
conduce to the spiritual services of their members, and of
their (dinrehefl when thev assemble.
Dr. Phelps moved to recommit the resolution and the
balance ot the series to the committee.
Dr. suydum moved thafrwheu the Synod adjourn
it tie to meet on Aionuay morning at ii o ciuuk.
Dr. Demoreat nioveo to amend by iUKertinp; 8
o'clock in the afternoon, which was not agreed to,
and the motion of Dr. Suvdum was agreed to, after
which the Synod adjourned until Monday morning at
11 o'clock.
(The object of hanging the hour of meeting Is to
allow the members of the Syuod an opportunity of
paTing a visit ou Monday morning to the United
States Mint This afternoon they will visit the Phila
delphia Navy Yard, in accordance with an invitation
irom its commanding omcer.)
In uddition to the appointments to the several pulpits of
to-morrow, already announced, may be added the follow
ing ;
SfTf.-f A' formed Churrh, Seventh street, above J5rown.
Communion services on Sabbath morning, at half-past 10,
by Rev. Dr. Zachary Kddy, of Brooklyn.
In the afternoon the Rev J. McClelland Holmes, of
Hudson, N. Y., and Rev. David Kutphen, of Long Inland,
will address the Sabbath Schools. Services from J to 3
o'clock.
In the evening, at 8 o'clock, the Rev. J. K. Allen, of
Hoboken, will preach.
All the above are members of the General Svnod of the
Reformed Church, now in session in this city. Many of
its members are expected to be present at the services on
Sabbath.
COMPOUNDED.
The licnt-flrial KnvinN Fund Society Iteceive
UucU llicir Moleu .Securities.
It will be remembered by our readers that some
time since the office of the Beneficial Savings Fund,
at the southwest corner of Twelfth and Cljesuut
streets, was entered by burglars, who quietly and
systematically devoted the labors of an entire Sun
day to the task of opening and riding the safe.
The total value of the money, securities, and other
valuables secured by the thieves was over $soo,uoo,
Including $liyioo In greenbacks belonging to the
Society, and 110,000 lu diamonds and about $iso,0Hl
in securities belonging to outsl lo parties, placed In
the custody of the society lor saie Keeping.
As soon as the loss was discovered a large reward
was offered by the Society lor the recovery of the
stolen property. The directors also appointed a
committee from among tlicir number to make every
endeavor and all necetsury arraugemeuts for secur
ing the return of the property. We are not familiur,
oi course, Willi tne inrunures adopted oyims com
mittee for Hccomplishiiijr their task, but whatever
mey were lliey nave at lasi ueen crowned wun suc
cess. Last night the oilleers of tho Savings Fund
received by tlie Adams' Kxpress Company u pack
age which, on examination, proved to contain nearly
everything that had been ti'ken from tho safe. Ail
the seeiirltips belonging to tlie society, and tho
t'2M),ooo of this character which had been placed on
deposit for sate keeping by outside parties, were
found In good condition in tho package. The only
tlilugB that were lacking were the $lft,000 in green
backs ami tho io,(ioo worth of diamonds, which
some simple-hearted lady had thought entirely se
cure iu their safe.
The whole story of the restoration of theHe docu
ments presents a sad commentary on the looseness
and lncOlclency of our pivsuut police system, as well
as serving to illustrate the maimer In which these
tlrst-clusH high-handed, ami open-day burglaries'
are usually compounded, to the disgrace and Inse
curity of tho community. ! mm.

About the sth or Kith of May some baiuN of insur
gents attacked the convoy of a train, defeated them,
und destroyed the bridges the Spaniards had built,
and captured forty-three oilleers und men, Including
a colonel. This is the only decided success of the
revolutionists that nas ncen recently reported.
The Admiral Is Informed that (icm-rat Lescas,
Governor of Puerto Principe, has been removed by
the Captain-General for cruelties in bombarding a
camp composed of women and children, and Gene
ral i.ciona is ordered w succeed nun. This action
has caused great discontent among the Havana
volunteers, who have placarded the streets with
satirical caricatures of lmlcc.
The Spanish authorities at Neuvltas. and In fact.
of every part of the island, excepting Carbaricn or
Heuiedios, have been exceedingly polite, oderlng
every facility to our officers, and manifesting a
friendly desire to please. There are rumors that
Trinidad Is environed by a large force of insurgents,
and there Is also a report that the place is in their
possession. At Geautamo, on the south side, near
the eastern end of the island, the insurrection is
said to be exceedingly strong in consequence
of the supposed landing of the expedition
in tnat district, and that in a
recent engagement with the Spaniards the latter
were ueicaiiMi. it is a fact that t ie ae tun or sup
posed successful landing of these expeditions has
iiniiseii new ine into int! insurrection, that to an ap
pearances was flying out some two weeks ago. The
Narrngausett is expected from Neuvitas, and the
Cam bean on the itfth of May, when Admiral Hon"
hopes to give the department some news of the pro
gress oi uuairs in ine vicinity oi cnose places.
I'nntal Arrnngcmrnti with China.
i ne l'ostmaster-General has concluded an ar
rangement with the General Post Oltlce of the colon v
of Hong Kong, China, for the reciprocal exchange of
oook pacKcts, including printiui papers or all kinds,
photographs, lithographs, sheets of music, etc.., in
the malls transmitted between the United States and
Hong Kong and dependent Chinese ports of Cevlon,
Ainoy. Swatow. and Foochow. by means of thai line
of United States mail packets running between San
rraucisco, loKonama, aim iioug Kong.
Heretofore letters, newspapers, and prices enrreut
oniy nave neen admitted into tue malls exchanged
by this line of steamers with Hong Kong and the
Chinese ports above-named, and hence the new ar

enlarged facilities of postal communication with
China. The rate of postage established for book
packets, includlngprlnted matter or all kinds, posted
in the United States and addressed to Hong Kong.
Canton, Amoy, Swatow, and Foochow Is ten cent
lor each weight of four ounces, or traction prepay

charges to destination. .
This arrangement goes Into operation Immediately.
A Patent Allowed.
The Commissioner of Patents has decided to allow
a patent to J. H. Kd wards, of North Greenbush, New
York, for his process of distilling hydro carbon oils.
The application was resisted by the owners of
CnarleB W. Keguas' patent, Albany, gruuted In
April, iMiN, lor substantially the same thing. Com
missioner Fisher decides that Kequas hud claimed
the introduction of steam generally, and being too
broad, failed as against a claim for a particular pro
cess of distillation. The case was well argued on
ooin sines.

The Alabama Treaty.
London, June ft. The temperate speech of Cla
rendon lu the House o! Lords last evening, on the
subject of tin1 Alabama treaty, has ellclteil the fol
lowing comments in the London Journals of this
morning:
The titututant says the negotiations for the Alaoama
treaty fulled because America never intended them
to succeed. If Kugland now admits it her duty to
renew her efforts for a peaceful settlement, it is
without hope that an honest desire for such settle
ment will be appreciated but by a small section
or the American people. In the meantime, until the
details or Mr. Motley's mission is known, we should
roiti our hands, and limit our compliments to uun as
a great historian.
The Tunes savs: For our part, considering rim
demands of Ann rica and the ready concessions or
Knglaiid, we wonder that the latter got olf so well.
The rejection of the treaty was more a lucky chance
than the result of anybody engaged in behalf or
Great Britain.
The Star savs Americans no longer doubt our
willingness to do them right in our determination to
preserve our national character and credit.

WhatUKalo offal Anticipated Ketnra to thin

The Liberal Christian, announcing the speedy re
turn of George Pcabody to spend the remainder of
his days In Ms native land, forcibly adds;
"We sincerely hope that he will ba spared tho
necessity of living under Uwk and key to protect
himself from beggars, an! of keeping a private
secretary to burn the appeals to his generosity sent
through the malls. Having given away seven mil
lions two hundred and five thousand dollars In
money, at a gold valuation, for public and charitable
purposes, he has certainly earned the privilege f
spending tho remainder of his useful life as he
choeses without disturbance, ami of giving the rest
ot his fortune to whom anil what he will. He has
set a noble example to our rich men, and has done
morn than any one to make public, splrlfedness and
hctiHIeenco popular. We arc largely indebted to
him ror the public sentiment in lavor or charity a
sentiment which grows with what It feeds upon, and
already is so strong that few men of wealth can
resist Ita demands. We hope our pitple will not.
punish him for his inunllloeiice by teasing him for
more and greater gifts, thus doing what they can to
neutralize the force of his example.
"Many rich men are deterred from acts of gene
rosity tiy the fact that no sooner Is It known that, a
man is generous than he is besieged with an army of
mendicants, and his door-bell Is rung to pieces, his
counting-room is tilled with unscrupulous applicants,
and his steps are dogged by men who make up in
impertinence what they lack lu everything else. Tho
few rich men who are generous, notwithstanding the
evil it exposes them to and the trouble it incurs, are
all the more deserving or respect ami gratitude, ir
we would have a elas or generous, public-spirited
rich men, we must see to It that the path of benell
ci nee Is not hedged about with too many thorns, ami
made Impassable with unnecessary obstruction.
Hut. the worst beccars are not minncr who ask
lor a few pennies to buv a break fust or a loaf
of bread. Thev are 'men and women who
solicit endowments for impecunious Institutions
and miike appeals for all sorts of 'causes.' They
are respectable people who have a 'mission,' und
saerllli e till tlicir ow n modeslv ami nlake everybody
else miserable lu Its behalf. Tilt vine the religious
beggars w ho have a sectarian axe to grind or an ec
cIcKiiiFtlcal object to further. When men beg on
their own account they are somewhat reticent and
humble; but the respectable solicitor for a sectarian
enterprise throws awiuy all suc.n weaknesses, nun.
when once fairly hold of a rich man of known gene'
rnslty, sticks to his victim like a blister to the skin.
Such people do more to make rich men uncharitable.
and to drv un the curings of generous giving, than Is
generally imagined. Kvery dollar thev wring out of
unwilling purses foi their special purposes sub.

world."

The Baltimore Ken of this morning says of the re
turn or r.x-Minister Johnson:
The North German steamslp Ohio, Captain Bosse,
having on board the lion. Keveroy .loiinson. late
Minister to Kngland, his wile und son, arrived at this
port yesterday morning. The cordial satisfaction
with which the people of his own State and city wel
come Mr. Johnson on his return to this country is
Increased by the pleasure of seeing the
veteran jurist and statesman looking
hale and vigorous alter the ordeal of a si
voyage and the more trying political bulVetlngs
to w hich he has been subjected iu his efforts to pro
mote an amicable adjustment of the questions ut
Issue between Great untaln and tne l nited Mate.
Mr. Johnson looks as if he niiaht live long enough
yet to seethe establishment or a perpetual bond or
peace nerween tne two countries on tue junuaineniai
elements or his own action. Indeed, the friendly
response with which the hnglish Journals acknow
ledge the conciliatory tone of our new minister's
addresses is In Itself an Indication of tna result o
Mr. JolniFon'R labors to cultivate a frleudly
feeling in Great Britain for the I'nited States, on
the eve of his departure from Southampton, Mr,
Johnson. In reply to an invitation to the banquet
said, in a letter to the Mayor, "I shall return to my
home with the assa ranee that the amicable relations
tietween the two nations are not to be seriously dis.
turned." And he nnd. on nis arrival, that tne tern
porary excitement on both sides of the Atlantic has
siiiisided under the lntmence oi tne adoption oy Mr.
Motley of the same as inspired, or course, at wash
liigton rational and pacific spirit towards a kindred
nation wnicn was maniieated oy nr. .ioiiiihoii.
