Before Judge Moore.
Peter Fox, a rough, dissipated fellow, was yes
terday tried for granddaughter, In having caused
the death of his son, lad Of about fourteen years.
Fox lived In the tenement house So Hopkins street.
and while drunk, on the evening OF the 4th Of
February last, he beat and kicked Ills son, because
the latter refused to go out and procure some beer
The blows and the cries Of the poor boy heard
other inmates OF the house. Lut none OF them inter-
fered. Young Fox weS SO badly injured that he
died on the following day, and an examination OF
his body revealed wounds about the head and alb
dOmen.
The defence gave out that the boy had died OF
smallpox some other fell disease but the prose-
cution proved plainly tho state OF facts related
above, and the Jury promptly convicted the pIis-
oner of manslaughter In the fourth degree. Judge
Moore thcreupon sentenced him to the Peniten-
nate In escaping with such light conviction.
Bigamcus COachman.
James Fox, c0achman, was convicted Of bigamy
yesterday. He was tried once before, but the jury
disagreed. Fox married Mary Ann Orgleton. q
cook, in $780, and, shortly after the honeymoon, he
sent his Mary Ann "0ver the sea- for the os-
tensible purpose OF having her return
with some of his folks. During her
named Maggie Scanlon. Father McElroy united
the pair IN the holy bonds. Maggie was not aware
that James had already been married. Whom Mary
Ann returned and discovered this piece Of
treachery she caused the husbands arrest, and

to commit suicide by severing an artery In his
arm.

couple or hours and then announced their verdict,
The prisoner was remanded.

gain, but when the time OF performance came the
defendant refused to comply with the contract.
The answer OF the defendant was:-Flrst-Fraud,
misrepresentation and deceit, in this that the as
signor or plaintiff was financially worthless and
his notes good for nothing. Second-That the
assignor OF the Brooklyn mortgages had
no color Of title, the mortgages having
been obtained by fraud from the mortgagor,
one Nine. Blygert, the owner In fee
oil the Brooklyn property. Judge Curtis charged
the jury that although contracts under seal were
to be construed strictly yet In legal contemplation
the defendant was entitled to have rendered to
her good marketable and negotiable paper and
valid mortgages; that the 0,aats prObendf was on
the plaintiff to snow that the assignor was able
and willing to perform his part OF the contract at
the time and in the manner specified In the con-
tract: that the notes should at the time have been
signed, the deed perfected and rendered to de-
fendant for her signature, and that the mort
cages should have been valid and OF such
nature could be enforced; that II they were
satisfied that the paintf had not established these
things anirmatively no right OF action accrued as
against defendant; that the assiguor OF the Brook
Ign mortgage acquired ne greater Lille than was
vested In the owner OF the fee, and 1t was con-
tended that her title was couded, and that eAcum-
brances OF record still existed against the prop
erty and that the Court was not Ousted OF juris-
dietlon as the question OF title TO real estate did
net arise from the statement and proofs OF plain
tiff's case, and defendant had failed TO conform to
the provisions of the law relative to the removal
OF the cause to court OF record.
The jury found for defendant.

BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS
SUPREME CovUT-clRculT 2.
A Small Mement0 or the Big Riot.


Suits for damages received by citizens during
the riots in this city In 1868 1t was supposed had
long ago reached their terminating point. trial
in this Court yesterday demonstrates, 1t appears,
the errsneousness Of this conclusion. Peter Sharf-
fer, shoemaker, sued the city to recover *92 and
interest. In his testimony he stated that during
the riots, or, accurately speaking, on the 18th
OF July 1853, four men came into his shoe store,
and, with the freedom of manner in vogue at that
time, demanded his money or his life. Preferring
to give up his money rather than give up the ghost
in this unceremonious way, he gave them $50,
which was all the money he had. But this did not
not satisfy his visitors it seems, as they helped
themselves In addition to $72 worth OF his boots
and shoes.
MIR. Dean, on behalf OF the city, moved dis
missal OF the complaint, on the ground That the
evidence did not show tina the parties robbng him
mad anything to do with the riot then In progress
In the city. -,
Judge Davis denied the motion to dismiss the
complaint, and when the time came to charge the
Jury gave ii as his opinion that, from all the sur
roundines Of the case, there could be but little If
any doubt that the parties tening Mr. shaeffer
and robbing him were part ana parcel OF the law
less gang who thus, by this act OF highandcd out
lawry, spread such terror throughout the city.
The jury took but a short time TO deliberate upon
the case and brought in verdict for $780, being
the full amount claimed with interest

ton is brought against tho defendant as surety ON
lease for the payment Of the rent In case Of the
failure OF the tenant. The amount claimed is
$780, with interest. The lease was made out in the
names Of the plaintiff and PUan Aaron, and signed
p. Aaron d Son. which signature was erased and
'Pauline Aaron" written under 1t. The plaintiffs
agent testified that Aaron first signed the name
r. Aaron Son, and then upon his obecting to
that signature ne ran his pen through 1t an wrote
Pauline Aaron ana his own name that the lease
was afterwards taken to the defendant In that con-
ditOn, when he signed as surety.
On the part of the defence II was sought to be
tablished that the suretyship was for +. Aaron
Son, and that the erasure and substitution of the
signature "Pauine Aaron took place after the de-
fendants signing 1t. And the further objection was
taken that 'tpaune Aaron" Is the name OF a woman,
and not that OF the party to whom the lease was
made-"Paulin.r
The Court found that the signature r. Aaron 4
Son was erased and the other name substituted be-
fore the defendants signature and that the evil
dence showed that the defendant became surety
for Paulin Aaron, man, and not for q woman,
dering Judgment ia favor OF the plaintiff for S2l4 80.

THE WIFE MURDER TRIAL.

Second Day Of the Trial Of George Shelf
nin-AIl tho Testimony Submitted for
the osecutiOn-Thc Details of tho
Horrible Crimc-PrObable Completion
OF the Trial To-day.
The second day OF the trial Of George Sheflin, on
charge Of having murdered his wife on the 18th
Of last January, In the rear tenement house Ala
East Eleventh street. attracted yesterday, in the
Court OF Oyer ana Terminer, Judge Brady on the
bench, as large and curiously eager throng as on
the opening day Of the trial. Shefnn was brought
promptly into Court by the Deputy Shcrifrs having
him In charge, and presented the same stolid APP
pearance as on his first arrangement. He was
given his seat as before behind his counsel, Mr..
William r. Howe and Abe H. Hummel. District
Attorney Phelps, who adds to his many other viz
tues that OF punctuality, was early on hand, as
likewise was his able and indefatlgable assistant,
Mr.. Lyons.
COMPLETING THE JURY.
The ten Jurors previously obtained were also
early In their places 1t took nearly two hours to
oil the two remaining vacancies In the jury box,
owing to the fact Of large number OF those exam
lned nom the FIRST panel being opposed to capital
punishment. The jury as finally obtained consists
Of the following gentlemen Marvin Briggs, Rob
ert F. Cooke, Francis A. Murdoch, Hugh Corcoran,
Henry o. Wentworth, Frederick r. w. Hahn, Henry
v. Ryder, Emil F. scharG, Henry Klenen, Joseph
Ewing, John G. Valentine and Abraham w. Mas
Having reached this progressive stage In the case,
though the time by no means dragged slowly,
owing to the varied amusing but searching inter-
rogatOries Of Mr.. Howe whose fund Of wit seems to
be as exhaustess as II Is fresh and pungent, re-
cess was taken for an hour.
OPENING THE CASE.
On the Resembling or the Court Mr.. Phelps
opened the case on behalf Of the people. He said

nict this community II was one OF those crimes

the prisoner was an English professional thief and
that he would show no mercy to any Of this class
brought before him. 1t was to be regretted that
he had wife and children who would suffer for his
eTence, but the prisoner should have thought OF
