MUNICIPAL MATTERS.
THE s1HEouRIsrs OF THE COURTS.

Another Pack I'm Fun Cry ora tho
Public Treasury.
The claims OF an additional lot Of Court onicers
have been lately brought before the Courts on .
mandamus others having been disposed OF pre-
viously.
II has been the practice to surround the
Court or Oyer and Terminer with q gang OF men
who were appointed temporarily to attend at its
sessions and act as C0nstables or Deputy
Sherifrs. These ofsicers were compensated by the
Board OF Supervisors at Q per diem allowance,
and very large expense In the aggregate had to
be borne by the county for these services.
One OF these officers recently brought his case
before the Supreme Court to compel, by mandamus,
the Board Of Audit to allow his claim. 1t was con-
tended on the part Of the county that this was not
q Unsuitable claim. The Supreme Court, OF which
the Oyer and Terminer Is part had q large
number Of Court attendants which should have per-
formed oil OF the duty required by the Court OF
these Offcers and no additional ones can be
needed. and the appointments OF Others to do this
nNmna nor %stSs y oHy spssaas presexMs IT. to enlist
ers Of some local leader by procuring these gratui
ties from the city and county treasury Much dissat
course pursued by Comptroller Green on his access
sion to oi1ce IN reducing the number OF Court at
tenaants from more than two hundred to about
one-half OF that number and thus throwing out Of
employment largo number OF worthy persons
who were very valuable at the local primaries. At
the very time in 1871 when these services are
alleged to have been rendered. the extraordinary
number OF 210 persons besides were drawing sala.
ries as Court attendants.
Another crowd of claimants who claim for SER
wees performed In 1870, under appointment Of
Sheriff OBrien are awaiting the issue of the pres.
ent case to press their claims to take money from
the public treasury.
Some OF the very men at present making this ex-
tra0rdinary demand held other appointments
under the county and were receiving paw for such
service. This question OF dual salaries has been
long since exploded and 1t Is hoped that an active
resistance will be made to these claims before they
are disposed Of

ANOTHER GERMAN SHOOTS HIMSELF.

Some months ago Antonio Henning German,
twenty-one years Of age, opened butchers shop
In First avenue, near Eghty-irst street. but, hav.
ing active competition IN the business, made dis
astrOus failure, which SO dsheartened him as to
cause excessive depression OF spirits On Tuesday
night, armed with 1ve-barreled revolver, he pro-
ceeded to an open lot near his residence and
placing the muzzle of the weapon in his mouth
discharged It, probably causing death almost In
stantly. Shortly before eight O'Clock yesterday
morning Officer MCGUIRE, OF the Twenty third pre-.
cinct, found the dead body OF Henning, with blood
oozirg nom his mouth, with the pistol firmly in his
right hand. The body was removed ana Coroner
Schirmer notified to hold an inquest. Deceased
left a widow much older than himself and numerous
other relatives.

PAYMENT TO THE CITY LABoRERs.

Comptroller Green paid yesterday along the line
Of the work, through his Paymaster Mr.. Moor Falls
the wages due up to August 1a to the laborers on
the small pipes and those engaged on the cobble-
stone pavement. Upon the completion Of this
payment, which amounts to almost twenty
thousand dollars all the aborers in the en-
ploy OF the city will have received the
wages due them to the 18th inst. In thus
facilitating the audit and payment of the pay rolls
OF the workmen Comptroller Green has pleased
them exceedingly, for during many years they
have been obliged to wait a longer time before get
ting paid During his long experience with public
works, while he has been always rigid In requiring
proper authority for the employment Of men, he
workmen In procuring prompt payment Of their
well earned wages.
