The SUNDAY THEATRE Casa CoSyIcTioS.--
The jury in the case Of Lindermuller, charged
with giving theatrical performance On Sunday,
brought in verdict Of guilty yesterday morn
ing, after elaboration Of nearly twelve hours
The facts alleged in the indictment having been
proven as to the character Of the performance,
the question Of course rested upon the constitu-
tionality OF the Sunday law, and from the
charge Of the Judge there could be little doubt
that its consttudonality was not questioned by
the Court. This, we believe, is the first convic.
ton obtained under the puritanical Law OF the
Sabbatarians upon this charge, and it will pro-
badly have the effect Of shutting up those places
of amusement which so many Of our German
citizens were accustomed to resort to for recrea.
ton, sitter the manner of the fatherland.
The case viii very likely be taken on appeal
to higher tribunal; and in this connection 1t
may be remarked that Judge Hoffman, Of the
Superior Court, decided the Sunday law to be
constitutional in the case Of Hoym X Hartman,
proprietors Of the Stadt theatre, when brought
before him on demurrer on Monday, the
charge in that case being PRECISELY the same as
that upon which Underwater was convicted
SO much for the despotic legislation Of the
last pure and pious assembly Of lawmakers
of Albany.

HoRsETLEsH IN CENTRAL PAIx.-When the
Central Park was nrst designed, we predicted
that II would impart q wonderful stimulus to
our cultivation Of horseaesh and our love for
fine equipages, and already, before it is half
completed, that prediction Is verified every
agreeable afternoon. There Is no city in the
world, perhaps, at the present time, that can
make better display Of horses, whether we re-
gard their leetness or their symmetry of proper.
ton, than New York Ten years hence, when
the drives on the Park are completed, this me-
tropols will excel the world in the number
and quality Of its horses and the splendor Of it's
equipages.
1t is not uncommon TO and from three to four
thousand people driving over the Central
Park in costly equipages of all shapes in
one day at this delightful autumnal
season, and "a many as four hundred
finely mounted equestrians Of both sexes. Every
quality Of animal, from the snowy and steady
roadster to the fastest blood horse, can be seen
there, and every build OF vehicle, from the
sulkey to the dashlng fourth hand carriage
II would not be too much to say that the cash
value OF one days turnout In the Park and on
Bloomipgdale road, both in animals aud equi.
pages, Ia not far from quarter Of . million Of
dollars.
Every class Of society, too-moneyed society,
we mean--s represented there: for to have
money and not own fast horses in these days
IL to be nobody Commodores, lawyers, edi'
tors importers, butchers, shipping merchants,
bakers, hotel keepers, bankers, politicians and
aldermen sweep the drives Of the Central Park
every afternoon with their fast teams, whose
value ranges from two thousand to twelve
thousand dollars; and the other and fairer
halves Of all these individuals are verv often 10
be seen handling the reins rs skilfully as their
lords and masters. This augurs well for the
taste Of the upper crust Of society, aud prom
ises fairly for the cultivation OF that most desira
bic and healthy exercise, horse riding. The
price in the purchase Of horse seems 70 be no
matter Of consideration with our horse fanciers
80 that the animal be swift and we'll blooded, aud
can outrun bis neighbor, money i no object
The turf has been largely put under contribu.
ton for fast horses, and now many an animal
that made an enviable reputation upon the
course can be seen showing bis mettie n the
Central Park before some private equipage.
By.andby If the country Is preserved from
the disasters Of political revolution, and panic
does not impoverish all our fast men. New
York will be quoted all over the world for its
supremacy In splendid horses and magnificent.
eouipages.

Wire POISONING N New JERsEr.-ft has
been frequently observed that the commission
Of one notorious crime, even when summary
punishment follows II, is generally succeeded
by other crimes Of the same class; aud this
seems peculiarly the case with regard to wife
poisoning in New Jersey. The remarkable trial
and execution OF the Rev. Mr.. Harden are fresh
In The public mind, and now we have another
case Of the same kind 10 the mysterious death
OF Mrs. Absom at Communipaw, which the Co.
roners jury pronounced on Monday to have
been brought about By her husband. While
commenting upon the frequency Of this kind Of
crime in our neighbor State, however, Il would
be unfair not TO give the juries and authorities
there the credit OF promptly ferreting out the
truth, and bringing the criminals to justice.
In this respec, they set an example to the au-
thorities Of this city which II would be no harm
to follow.

Ma. LFsDsAY's COMMERCIAL ML5Sr0s-EsPosf-
TIos or HIS vEws BEFORE THE CHAMBER OF
CoaMxgcE.-In another column will be found .
report Of Nh. Lindsay's speech, in explanation
Of The objects Of his mission, before the Cham
Der Of Commerce yesterday. The points which
he proposes to have carried out By conven-
ton between the two governments may be
thus briefly s.ated:-The same rule Of the road
for vessels meeting at sea, and. the same sys.
TEN Of Lights or marine siguals to be adopted
by both countries Reciprocal jurisdiction over
offences committed on the high seas. Disputes
between masters and crews to be heard, tried
and dealt with in summary way by the
coCrts of either country where the ship at the
time may be. Magistrates in both countries to
have power to arrest and send back TO their
ships deserving seamen, and in case Of refusal
to iDAici such punishment as the local laws
would have awarded for such offence. The two
governments to extend to shipowners the privi-
lege Of shipping crews for their vessels in their
respective ports on the came conditions 40
the crews Of British vessels are now engaged
upon, shipping Offices to be established for car
rying oct this clause in all the principal ports
of the Union.
In regard to the coasting trade proper, Mr.
Lindsay admitted that, with the exception OF the
Western States, there was pretty general feel
ing On the part Of the people and the press
against opening it to British commerce. As
to the lake trade, be says that at almost
every place that he visited the parties in
terested confessed that the increase Of the
traffic was 30 rapid that necessity would
econ compel them to remove all barriers,
and in regard to the trade between the Eastern
and Western ports Of the United States he did
not find single intelligent man who did not
frankly own that the trade between India and
England was as much q coasting trade as the
trade between New York and California. The
honorable gentleman added that the President
and his Cabinet regarded the settlement Of the
rule Of the road and lights at sea as complete;
but on the other points he did not state how
far they concurred with him. 1t may safely be
assumed, however, that in respect to the coast
ing trade there is but little accordance in their
views. He did not succeed in eiciting any
expression Of opinion from the Chamber Of
Commerce, as II contented itself with simply
passing q vote Of thanks to him for his efforts.
Mr. Lindsay sails to-day for Europe, carry
ing with him the good wishes and cordial es-
TEEN of all those with whom he has come in
contact since his arrival in this country.
Although he may not succeed in accomplishing
all that he has proposed to himself by his visit
here, we doubt not that his exertions will be
productive Of important benefits to the maritime
interests Of both countries.
