OPINION 01P. THE COURT, SEPT. 9, 1863. OADWALADER,‘,T.—The provost marshal of the proper district returns to the habeas corpus that the petitioner was duly drafted and notified ; appeared before the Board of Enrolment asking exemption as the only son of a widow dependent on his labor for support ; was duly heard upon his allegation and evidence, and that his claim of exemption was finally disallowed ; that -he subsequently appeared and reported himself for duty, received hie uniform ; asked and obtained leave of absence for a time not quite expired when the return wee matte; and, though not in the respondent's actual custody, was still under his control. • No. - question as to the effect of the occurrences posterior to 'the disallowance of the claim of ex emption is;property raised by this return. These occurrences are nut so stated in it that a traverse of them is necessary, Whether proof of them will - ultimately be receivable against the petitioner, if proofs on Ma part of his alleged right shall have been admitted in the first Instance, may be a question to arise hereafter, In the meantime, the question of the sufficiency of such a statement of these occurrences in a return is difterent. Aspects of mere submission to military authority, where obedience would have been compellable, they can add nothing to the effect otherwise attributable to the decision of the board. His teihtforitry acquiescence in it was no waiver of right. But, it the occurrences are mentioned for the purpose of showing that, notwithstanding his previ- ' ous claim of exemption, he afterwards waived any right of exemption that he may have had, so as volun- • larilyito become a soldier under the draft, the voluntary waiver should have been directly averred. a re turn, a statement of occurrences merely tending, more or less, to prove such a fact, is not of equivalent effect. Sometimes, indeed, a fact consists of a series Of connected, or mutually dependent, occurrences. They may then be stated in detail. But such a epe cification of the details of a fact Is different from a mere specification of evidence, tending to prove it. The proposition, or fact, relied on, whether stated, in detail, or in that general form which is ordinarily more proper, should be set forth substantively, so that the statement, if true, shall absolutely suffice in law. The occurrences mentioned in this lattterpart of the return, under the most favorable view of it, may, or may not, independently of those previously' stated, suffice to establish a waiver of right, This part of the return, therefore, does not require a traverse. The objections to it might not apply to returns Uroperly.framed in order to meet cases of draftedthen who, after proper notice, have omitted to appear before the Board and claim exemption, or of those appearing and claiming it, but omitting to comply with proper regulations of the Board, of which sufficient information has been given. To cases of drafted men who, after the Board's disal lowance of their claims of exemption, have had fair time and opportunity to obtain elsewhere the judicial investigation ot their alleged rights of exemption, and have not availed themselves of such opportu nity, returns, might . perhaps be so adapted as to pre vent unnecessary judicial interference with con summated military organizations embracing such parties. ' The question upon the return is whether the Mili tary Board's disallowance of the claim of exemption Must be traversed; in other words, whether this Board's decision that there was nojight of exemp tion inquiry iniry here as to the existence of the right . This question depends upon the effect of the fourteenth section of the act of 3d March, 1863, eh. 76 which enacts "That all persons drafted and claiming exemption from military duty on account of disability, or any other cause, shalt present their claims to be exempted to the Board, whose decision shall be final." Cognizance of the application for exemption, if taken, mutt be judigial, however 'spe cial the jurisdiction or summary the proceeding. The point in -question is whether the decision is or is not conclusive elsewhere as to the right of exemption. This depends on the effect of the word final. It certainly- imports that the decision en the Board shall not undergo exe cutive or other revision. The decision is, rela tively to military jurisdiction, conclusive as well as final. Therefore a decision of the Board in favor of the claim of exemption, is necessarily conclusive as to the right of exemption. The question will be whether the effect of the word should be extended so as to' 'make a decision against the claim equally conclusive against the right. The consideration of this question will involve the inquiry whether an enactment that the decision of such a tribunal shall be thes conclusive, would be constitutional, The act of 3d March, 1863, has provided for the or ganization of an exclusively national military force by enrolment, draft, and, where necessary, impress ment ; that is to say, compulsion to serve. The words of this act, whioh might otherwise be of doubt ful import, must be interpreted so that usurpation Of power, beyond the legislative authority conferred by the Constitution, may not be unnecessarily ime puted to Congress, The cas e has been commendably argued on this point, upon the words of the Consti tution • and of the statute, without any such refe• renews to Congressional debates, or to debates of those who drafted the Constitution, or of those who proposed or discussed its early amendment, as, of late, nave, perhaps, been too frequent. Such references to extrinsic n,n trer, it is true, are hot always improper. They are meld Ire es of legal assistance in explain ing the me aide g of words which are to be interpreted. This meaning may depend upon some relation of the words to occurrences of which historical memorials aie pzeseived in the reports of cotemporaneous CUSBiOneri Where, moreover, the: meaning of p word is doubtful, or has undergone change since the date of its use, the language of such diacusaionso may - sometime serve, in some degree, the pur pose of a glossary. Such cases are, however, not exceptions from, but, onthe contrary, exemplify the rule that the intention is ascertainable from the lords only, Under this rule the proper inquiry is, not what may, from extrinsic _sources, appear to have been intended by the men whose words are in question, but what was the legal meaning and ap plication of the words when med. The rule applies whence single person has been the lawgiver, and with pester force ot reason where a numerous assembly has made a laws; and is applicable especially to the Constitution 01 the United States and the amend. musts. This Coneticlition was, when finished by its framers, as Ordei Justice Marshall said, a mere propsal, without- obligation or pretension to it,” (4 Wheaton, 404) We read in the subsequent proposal by the first Congress of amendments that the 4:lonventions of a number of the States had, in .adopting the Constitution, expressed( a desire for "declaratory and restrictive" additione (1 St. U. S. 97) ; and ()Mei . Justice Marshall has reminded us that almost every Convention had recommended-such amendments (7 Pet. 250). The omission to- specify which amendments were, declaratory and which re strictive enabled persons who differed most widely in opinion as to the effect of the original Constitution to concur in edopting ten of the _series - . of amend ments proposed. Otherwise they would not have been adopted. The hope of reconciling the differ enced of opinion was in future judicial decision upon the Constitution and amendments without any con aideration of extrinsic matters. The powers conferred by the Constitution upon Congress to raise and support armies, and make rule r for theit governMent, are distinct from the powers which are conferred in it as to the militia of the re- spective States. Until the act in question, the na tional armies bad been raised by voluntary enlist ment, The system of enrolment and draft had long been matured as to the militia of the States. But, until the summer 0f1862, the utmost penalty for not serv ing when drafted irom ouch militia for the service of the United States had been pecuniary, with a li mited imprisonment for non-payment. The act of Congress of 17th July, 1862, authorized impressment into the military service of the United States of those persona drafted from the militia under that act, who, when ordered to, - attend at the place of muster, disobeyed. The specific power of impressment had not been previously confer. red. But, under the former system, though the fine for not Eery ng had, when received, been con sidered an equivalent for service, the payment had nevertheless been enforced, or the penalty of impri sonment inflicted by courts martial, when the money was not otherwise collected. The constitutionality of this former jurisdiction of courts martial may be considered established (5 Wheaton 1.) It would not have peen constitutional if disobedience to attend at a place of muster had not been a military offence. Clore. grews, unless it had the power of absolutely sobjeot ing a'drafted person to military rule from the time of the draft, could not have thus made hie disobedi ence before he was mustered into service a military offence. The act of Congress of 1795, which fixed the time of arrival at the place of rendezVous as the period of the commencement of the military service, might, constitutionally, in the opinion of the Su preme Court, have made the time of draft the period, (5 Wheaton, 17, 18, 20, and see pp.,36, 37, 56, 64, 65.) ,The constitutionality of the act lathe Suly, 1862, when the question was considered here in March last, in McCall's case, appeared, therefore, to be established by authority. If the question had been thought an open one, the same view of the ef fect of the Conatitution would have been taken. • The act of 3d March, 1863, has adopted a like sys tem on an extended scale, for thepurpotte of raising national armies independently of the militi&of the States. Under the former laws which have been mentioned, a question such as that now under con sideration could not arise. The question under those laws could only have been that of a military court's exercise of jurisdiction over a person, who, having been lawfully drafted, already owed military service. There could not have been any dispute that the primary question whether he had been lawfully drafted, or was liable to serve, wine:yen to decision by the ordinary tribunals under a writ of habeas corpus. Here, however, the question is whether a military commission can so decide the original question of liability to serve, as absolutely to deprive all other tribunals of cognizance of it. The enetetmeun of the law in question are not so arranged that its provisions for the preparatory en rolment, and those for the draft, are always seen - rated. They must, however, be kept distinct when they are considered with reference to the Constitu tion. The moat unlimited system-of mere enrol ment could not be constitutionally objectionable;' but a system of drafting might be arbitrary and lati tudinarian to such- an extent as to encroach upon constitutional rights. That the framers of the Con • stitution had inherited the parent nation's jealousy of the poWer to raise and support armies, ap • pears from the prohibition to appropriate money to that use for a longer term than two years., The constitutional authority to enact the law which is under consideration was derived ex clusively from this power to raise armies. It cannot be enlarged under the authority which the Constitution also confers to make all laws necessary and proper for carrying the powers delegated, this one included, into execution. This incidental au thority cannot extend beyond the limits of the • principal power. A government previously "re publican, whose armies are, upon executive requisi tion, to be, raised under a system of draft and im pressment administered Without any restriction as to persons Hale to serve, and without any limitatton of the time of service, may, at the will of the chief Executive Magistrate, become 'an established mili tary Government. The Constitution guarantees to every State a republican form of government. The Supreme Coert have said that a military govern ment, permanently established' in -.a State, would not be republican, and that "it would:be the duty of Congress to overthrow it," (7 How. 45) Con gress, of course, could not establish such a govern ment for the whole country. The general provisions of the act are not unconsti tutional. Those who are liable to do military duty under it are, In the first instance, described ae all able-bodied male citizens, and persons of foreign birth who have duly declared their intentions to be come citizens, between the ages of twenty and forty - five years, except persons rejected as physically or mentally unlit, and those exempted under seven other enumerated' heads; the first including desig nated magistrates and other principal officers of the United States, and the others including respectively the private potions, whose rignts of exemption are specified. One of them is the only son liable to military duty of a widow dependent upon his , labor for support. .No persona not thus excepted are to be exempt; but no person convicted of any felony can be enrolled, or permitted to serve. The preparatory enrolment is Meanie', to be made in the present year, and hereafter in each al ternate year, and to embrace those only whose ages will be, on the Ist of July in every year in which it is made, between twenty and forty-five years. They are to be enrolled in two separate clauses, the first comprising all between the ages of 'twenty and thirty-five year's, and all who areabove the age-of thirty-five and unmarried; the second class, com prising all other persons liable. to do mili tary duty t. and those in the second class are not, in any district, to be called into service until those of the first' class shall have been called. All persons thus - enrolled are subject for two years after the first of July succeeding the enrol ment, to be called into military service and to con tinue in it during the present rebellion, not how ever exceeding the term of three years. The Presi dent is authorized, whenever it may be necessary to call them out for such service, to assign to every en rolment district its quota of men to be furnished. In doing so, he is to take into consideration the number of volunteers and militia furnished by and from the respective States, and thepericid of their service since the commencement of the rebellion, and is teeequalize the respective quotas by allowing for the numbers thus already furnished and the time of their service. Upon ouch requisition of the President, a draft is to be made, under his direction, of the required number, and fifty per cent. in addition, A. roll of the names hus drawn, upon which they are to stand in the order in which drafted, is then to be made. The persons drafted are to be notified within ten days thereafter, and required to report at the rendezvous for duty. Provision is made for the acceptance of substitutes, and for the receipt of such commutation money as exempts those paying it, and enables the Secretary of War to procure substi tutes for them. Provision is also made for the hear ing and decision of claims of exemption; an I it is enacted " that as soon as the required number of able-bodied men liable to do military duty shall be obtained from the list of those drafted, the remain der shall be discharged." This review of the principal enactments of the law suffices to indicate ite general purposes. The orga nization of armies under it is to cease on the termi nation of the civil war for whose exigencies it pro video; and the term of service of those 'drafted under it cannot exceed three years,though the war should continue longer. Such limitations of the time would have prevented the compulsory requirement of mi litary service from being unconstitutional, though it had included every able-bodied male inhabitant. The administrative regulations of the law will next be considered. ' The commission appointed for every enrolment district to execute the provisions of the act is de signated in one section of it as the enrolling board, and, in other sections as the board of enrolment. Bielmtal primary rolls, made by subordinate officers in the respective districts and sub-dietricts, having been reported to the board, are biennially consoli dated into one list for eardi district. Of this list a copy is transmitted to the Provost Marshal Gene ral. The designation of the commission as the board of enrolment is referable not merely to these two stages of that preparatory enrolment, but also to the subsequent roll of the persons who have been drafted, This roll of drafted persons the board is required to melee. The word enrolment, when used without any qualification, is, however,- ordinarily understood as applicable only to the preparatory enrolment which must precede any draft. The provisions of the 14th section, requiring the presentation of all claims of exemption to the board, and making its decision final, have been quoted. They do not apply to such a case of a per son improperly drafted as depends neither, upon a question of disability, nor upon one of exemption for any other specified cause. This opinion was acted upon in the eases of Stingle and of .Robinson. Silo gle was drafted as enrolled in the first class. He al leged that he belonged to the second, which is com posed of persons not exempt, but not as yet liable to be called into service. Robinson was a person liable to enrolment in the first class. But on the en rolinent from which he was dratted, his name and occupation were entered incorrectly. The decisions of theo respective boards of enrolment had been that these parties were liable to serve. Both cases were very fully argued, as the present - case has also been. Stingle has been allowed to adduce proofs in sup port of his allegation that he was improperly en rolled in the first class. Robinson has been dis charged from military restraint. The same decision was made in Tilghman's case, where a resident of one subdistrict, when sojourning in another, had been enrolled and drafted in the latter. These'deci sions do not affect the present question otherwise than as they may circumscribe it within ascertained limits. Executive instructions and regulations have been greatly multiplied under authorities conferred by this act, and under assumed authorities which it has not conferred. These executive mandates, where authorized, have doubtless promoted various useful purposes, including that of securing a desira ble uniformity throughout the United States, in the course and modes of proceeding under the act. The sixth section requires "the Provost Marshal Gene. I al, with the approval of the Secretary of War, to make rules and regulations for the government of his subordinates," and perform other specified acts; among theiff, "to furnish proper blanks and insfrue lions for enrolling and drafting." Under these two heads of enrolling and drafting, including their ad ministrative incidents, executive instructions con formable to the purposes of the set, and to the pro visions of the sixth section, are not less binding than if they had been contained in the act. Bat come of- the Executive instructions have, with out any warrant in the aot, assumed to regu late the exercise of the board of enrol-. mends duties as to applications for exemp tion under the fourteenth section. The exercise of this jurisdiction should be independent of regulation, or other interference or supervision by any Execu tive Department of the Government. Instructions of the latter kind, therefore, can have no imperative effect,` This remark applies to the instructions which assume to regulate the practical course of pro ceeding of the board ; and applies with greater force to those which assume to furnish rules . for its dec . ', sion upon questions of exemption. Some, or all, of those instructions - Which apply merely to the course of proceeding may, nevertheless, have been reasona bly and properly adopted by the respective boards of - enrolment as theirown rule of their procedure ; and, through such adoption, may, after proper notice to parties appearing to claim exemption, have become regulations ormervable by such parties. This independence of executive supervision or In terference is neither less nor greater than that of an ordinary court, martial after its organization, and before its finding or sentence. Such independence does not prevent the bosrd ; of enrolment,-even .when administering its jurisdiction, under the 14th section, from being - a mere military commission. Its president is the provost marshal of the district,. whim rank, pay, and emoluments are those of a captain of cavalry, and who may, under the act,be an officer of this rank specially detailed. That-such an officer may be thus detailed, as a member, is con clusive as to , the military character of the .commission. The other members are the erirgeon,i who is' also required by the act to inspect the drafted men at the rendezvous, and re port on.their physical condition ; and a third' person who, in another set of Congress, passed on the same day (chapter 19, section 9), is called a " citizen at large." - - Under the latter act, the compensation of these two members of the board is that of an assist ant surgeon of the army. Under a subsequent Exe cutive regulation, all the members of the board re ceive their dues through the pay department of the, army. The powers conferred on the board would have been exerciseable with precisely the same legal effect if Congress had conferred them upon any offi cer of the army who might be from time to time specially detailed as a sole commissioner. The requirement in the 14th section that all claims of exemption should be made , before such a poll military commission is reasonable and convenient. Dion- compliance with such a statutory provision, and with seasonable regulations made by such com missioners for carrying it into execution, might per haps preclude such an inquiry as the petitioner now asks. But he has fulfilled the statutory condition; and the question recurs whether the additional en actment in the 14th section-that the decision of the military commission shall be - final has precluded in quiry here as to his right whicn was in question be fore the board. To the board's iwlepentlence of supervision, ivhich rerembles that of ordinary courts.martial, this en actment adds an independence of such executive re vision,: as the proceedings of courts-martial and of other military commissions ordinarily undergo. Their findings and sentences do not ordinarily take effect, even - provisionally, till after such revision. The exigency of a legal application for the word final is fulfilled when it is understood as meaning not subject to such Executive revision. This makes 'it conclusive so far as military jurisdiction can proper ly extend. But even the word conclusive, if it had been superadded in the act, would, perhaps, not have made a decision against the claim conclusive against the right. (6 Binney,ll2B ; see 5 Binney, 387; 9 Barr, 102.) Upon the word final the queation is mare simple. There is no doubt that a decision may, relatively to the proceeding in which it was made, be final, and yet not conclusive elsewhere as to the right which was in question. (See 2 Peters, ' 463; 4-Serg i & Raw., 211 x -212.)' This remark is appli-' cable especially to such summary proCeedinge under a special - jurisdiction as are those of this Board.._ The meaning of the word final in this enactment must, of course, be thus qualified, if its effect would otherwise be unconstitutional. The argument that it would have been constitutional is that it would have been so 3f no exemption from military service had been specified in the act; that the exemptions specified were therefore not of right'; that an army might constitutionally have been raised, not by draft or lot s but by selection ; that a power of absolute selection might therefore have been directly con ferred upon commissioners, or a commissioner; and that the exemption in question, being consequently_ of mere grace, can be claimed only in the mode and under the conditions imposed. This argument, if analyzed, will appear not to meet the constitutional difficulty. The privilege of exemption is not the less of right because it has been legislatively conferred, or be cause it might have been altogether withheld. The mere form of the legislative enactment through which the immunity was obtained is, in this respect, immaterial. The right is conferred in the law by way of exception from a general enactment. This form of legislation, whatever opinion the law givers may. possibly have entertained, .cannot affect the aubstantive character of the right, and therefore cannotafiect the question'of constitutional power. As to privileges pr immunities enjoyed through powerg of government must be adminis tered,constitutionally, and their execution must be regulated in due subservience to judicial authority, exercisable through the proper organs. No power, otherwise unconstitutional, can, as qualifying rights, privileges, or immunities, legislatively conferred or vested, acquire validity through any legislative en- nexation, express or implied, of a condition to their enjoyment. Such a condition as would abrogate, or abridge, the effect of a constitutional provision as to the judicial power cannot be implied from any "phraseology of the act in question. If armies may constitutionally be raised by selec tion, as distinguished from lot, the proposition is - beeause, under such a system, the power of selection would. be executive, and not, like that in question, which is judicial. If such a power should ever be conferred by Congress, its definite character, the prescribed methods of its exercise, the official character of those exercising it, and the method of their appointment, might become subjects of jtidicial consideration. . Congress cannot constitutionally delegate its own powers; but -may confer executive and judicial 'powers upon those reepectively who are, accord ing to the Constitution, qualified for - their ex erciee. Those qualified, except a single elan, must be such - officers as are nominated to the Senate, and - appointed with its consent. Those of the excepted class are designated as inferior officeri.: Their capacities must necessarily be tested and limit; ed in every case, with' special relation to autho cities which are, -according to the distribution of the powers of government, superior. In the dis tribution- of the judicial power, Congress may establish inferior-Courte. But judges of aructecourts - are not in the class of those inferior officarirwho can be appointed or designated without reference to the Senate. Therefore, independent judicial powers could not be vested by Congrees- in such a commis sion as this Board of Enrolment unless it itiregard ed as a tribunal simply military. Thus regarded, it can have no jurisdiction except over persons who are already under military rule. Whether a person' is or is not under such rule is a question which a military tribunal may often have occasion to con eider, and, so far as may concern its own pro ceedings, •to decide. The tribunal may, or, may not, be so organized that its decision, of such s ques. tion is, relatively to military jurisdiction, final. put; an act of Congress making such decision as to the status of a citizen final, in such a sense as to pre clude altogether judicial cognizance elsewhere of the question, would not be constitutional. Such a law, '`if thus'executed, would confer a judicial power not warranted by the Constitution. Congress cannot give to such a mere military commission, or to a simple court-martial, any jurisdiction over a person who is neither in military service, nor locally amena ble to the military police of a territorial space pro perly occupied for military purposes. Nor can (ion— grebe confer upon ouch a special tribunal the power of conclusive adjudication, whether a case is within its own jurisdiction. An argument in support of the return has been that, as to persons drafted under this act, the 14th section may, at a time like this, of rebellion, take effect constitutionally by suspending- the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus. If this had been the intention of Congress, it might have been simply, and would doubtless have been directly, expressed. An intention to frustrate aright by indirectly suspending a remedy is not imputable to Congress. Moreover, - such legislation would not well comport with ano -1 ther act passed on the same day, authorizing, dur ing the rebellion, the suspension of-this privilege by the President, but requiring a sworn return of a detention in custody under hie authority. The question of right is dependent more, perhaps, upon the amendments to the Constitution than upon that provision of the original instrument which restricts the power to suspend this privilege. If the point were attended with any difficulty, the amendments might, in this respect, require full consideration. But Ido not think it necessary. The return does not require a traverse. THE POLICE. The Central Station Therewere several cases brought up yesterday af ternoon, at the Central Station, of parties who were put under bail to await a hearing on the charges preferred against them. It seems to be a hard case that such a course is entirely legal. In many in stances its practice may be all right, but to put it into effect in abases weighs heavily on parties who May be innocent. Yesterday afternoon a wOnloan was arraigned for keeping a disorderly house in the vicinity of Ninth and Lombard streets. The officer arrested ail he could find in the house, consisting of four other persons. The complainant. who had gone to the mayor, and upon whose affidavit the warrant was issued, was not present to prosecute. The.parties were then ordered to enter bail to await a hearing to take place this afternoon. Ball not be— ing ready, a commitment was made out, which is simply a passport to prison. Here we have an in stance of a legal application of the law to do .a wrong that should make the wise men who frame laws blush. Though not a word was said against the parties, yet all were cent to prison. They were, of course, deprived of their liberty: It is more than likely that at least, four of the five prisoners will be discharged this afternoon. Some amend. ment should be made to the law, that persona shall not be sent to prison upon unsuitatned 'charges. Of course, under the present system, the magistracy of the city have a very simple duty to perform. It was not the fault of the committing magistrate that the parties above alluded to were sent to prison yesterday. It is the fault of the laws. [Before Mr. Recorder Enee..l A Nen' Haven Fugitive front Allstate A young man, named Starr Sperry, was arraigned yesterday before the Recorder on the charge of being a fugitive front judtice from New Haven, Connecticut, where he stands charged with prae• tieing deception upon a young lady of poor and re spectable parents. His family are said to be rich. A legal process was issued for his arrest in Con necticut-; but he fled that State, and took refuge in Maryland, Where he worked at the blacksmith busi ness. The authorities, however, traced him, and he, getting wind of the fact, came to Philadelphia, and here he married a young lady. The authorities having traced him to this city, the proper State pa pers were obtained, and a warrant was issued by the Recorder. Officers Trefts and' Barker, in com pany with Deputy Sheriff David. Tucker, of New Haven, and a brother of the yourr , lady, started in company to arrest the fugitive. b They discovered him coming out of an iron-railing manufactory on the Ridge road yeaterday morning. He was con- ducted to the Recorder's office, and admitted that he was the party named, in the - official document. In company with Deputy Sheriff Tucker he started in the two o'clock train„ yesterday. afternoon for New Haven. The crime alleged against him is a felony in Oat State, the same as in Pennsylvania, and, upon conviction, the prinoner may receive five years imprisonment. - - [Before Mr. Alderman Pateliall..l Juvenile Offenders,. Four boys—one white, the others colored—were arraigned,- yesterday, on the charge of entering nu merous housed, in different - parts of the city, and stealing therefrom many articles of value. The smaller things, such as pocket-knives, pocketbooks, &c , they disposed of at the colored camp, at 'Mel ton Hill. The young beginners in a life of crime were sent to the House of Refuge. [Before Mr. Alderman McMullin. ] A Soldier Fleeced, Three young women were arraigned, yesterday morning, on the charge of robbing a soldier of $3l. The victim paid a visit to Pine alley, now dignified by the high-sounding name of Trout street, on Wed nesday night, and when he came away found him- Self minus all his money. The defendants were sent below. tv—m- [Wore Mr. Alderman Devlin.] Larceny of Chinaware. A man, giving the name of Robert Gilbreth, was arraigned yesterday on the charge of stealing a lot of chinaware from a hogshead on Delaware avenue, below Tine - street. It seems the defendant was walking along the avenue about six o'clock in the morning. He had on his shoulder a basket contain ing, twenty-two pieties. Officer Greene accosted him, and the fellow gave equivocal answers as to the possession of the goods. He was, therefore, taken into custody. The prisoner was committed. An owner is wanted at the Eleventh-ward station house for the stolen articles. PHILkDELIMIA. BOARD OP TEADO. lAMESIL-CAMPBELL,/ 5. W. DE OODESEY. Comxirroz OP pm Morro JAMES C. RA.ED.
