iaring man, was plaintiff, and Henry Inhan, store.

yesterday before Judge Joachimsen. Plaintiff
brings the action for alleged Illegal conversion OF
his goods. Damages were laid at $780, 1t appeared
that the plaintiff, having at heart the tenn
poral welfare Of his emancpated brethren

most practical way to accomplish that OBJ
ject would be to disseminate what Horace
Greeley knows about farming undertook the
mission OF Greeleys agent to Dixie in 1867, where
he acted as cOlporteur In circulating that enter
prising journal. Before leaving for the South

then proceeded on his mission South, and was alb
sent about three years. During his absence he
authorized his wife to pay the storage and carriage,
which she did, by paying the carriage to the defend
ant and the storage TO the silent partner OF the
defendant. II appeared that the defendant, at the
time the plantln stored the goods, December, 1867
had partner named Finch, who, in 1868, bought
out his right and title TO the storehouse,
and carried on the business in hts own
storage money, for which she received recepts-the
bill heads OF the defendant being used, but
tho name OF the defendant erased and the
name OF Finch inserted instead. After Finch be-
the property OF the plaintln to his own use. on
the return Of the plaintiff from the South he ap-
piled TO the defendant for his goods but was told
by him that he knew nothing about them At the
close OF the plaintrs testimony, Mr.. David
McAdam, counsel for defendant, moved for a dis.
illegal conversion was proved against the defend
ant. Motion granted.

Piling Pelion on Ossa In the Way OF
Charges-A Case Brought to the Notice
OF Judge Robinson, or the Court OF
Common Pleas-He Gives the Law on
the Subject and the Bill Fits.
Very few people probably have any idea OF the
extorti0nate exact0ns OF sheriffs' officers In this
city. Those having had the misfortune OF falling
into their clutches, which Is really the mildest
way OF putting it, have had realizing experience OF
the fact, but beyond this very little is known. Occa-
sonally these excessive charges are resisted few
days since case was brought to the attention Of
Judge Robinson, holding Special Term OF the
Court OF Common Pleas, which unquestionably may
be taken as fair sample OF the way business, in
the way Of fees is managed by most OF the under
shcrifs OF New York. This was suit OF one Crofut
against Mr. Brandt. In due course oil law prop.
erty OF the latter was levied on by deputy sheriff
to satisfy warrant for $3.50 81 and for while held
in his custody. There was sale, but for all this
at the close OF the matter the deputy sheriff put in
bill amounting TO s4l9 IL. This was too much
for the unfortunate debtor and motion was made on
his behalf TO have the sherln's fees taxed as on an
execution settled before the sale OF the property
levied on. Judge Robinson rendered his decision
yesterday In the case. We give below, in full,
JUDGE RoBISsoS's DECISION.
The execution in this case was issued out OF this
court to the Sheriff against the property of the
defendant upon judgment Of the Marine Court,
which, by virtue OF the filing OF transcript in the
Office OF the Clerk OF the city and county OF New
York, under the provisions OF section "a OF the
Code, became Judgment OF this Court. 1t directed
the levy and collection Of the amount Of the judg-
ment, $3.50 81, with interest from Juys. 1872 and
on the next day the Sheriff levied
upon SUFFICIENT property OF the defendant,
consisting OF straw and other kinds OF hats and
olice furniture, situate at 50 Spring street, to
satisfy the execution, which was at once advertised
