New YoRK, January l5.-Ths pro
ceedings in Tweed's trial to-day were
uniuteresting. The defence opened the
proceedings by entering two new objec
tions to the admission Of evidense,
based principally on the question oi
constitutionality of the law regarding
the Board OF Audit. Richard Storrs

troller, when defendant was President
of the Board of Supervisors. Witness
produced papers and vouchers for vari-
GUS amounts all bearing signatures Of

An officer proceeded to the rooms in

length on the floor, with terrible cash
across her forehead, which had laid
bare the brain. The body Of the woman
was also terribly hacked, there being
five stab wounds in the breast ind
arms. Near the corpse lay the mother
ia.law and sister'in-l Jaw Of deceased,
both beastly intoxicated. The drunken
women could not be brought ont OF their

When Stokes was convicted OF the

A most dastardly act OF robbery was
committed on last Christmas Day 10 .
church in this city, which, although
known TO n the day after ito commits
sisn. We have abstaiued from publishing
until now, - there had been Q faint
hops Of detection Of the guilty party.
Al that hope has been dissipated and as
there 10 now only the remotsst clue 10
the perpetrator Of the theft, We do not
deem il necessary to withhold the facts
from our readers:
Some time since Q merchant on East
Water street. Who 10 justly proud oil his
wife, . most charming lady. sought to
surprise her with . present that should
not only be delight 10 the lady, but
which really became the envy OF .
number OF ladies on account OF its
msgniHcsnce. The gentleman bougn,
while East IN exceedingly handsome
cloak; the garment itself was OF the
most costly character, being not only
made Of the finest kind OF material.
but WAS from the hahds OF the most
fashionable dressmsker in New York.
In addition 70 the perfection OF its
make, il was trimmed in . gorgeous
manner with . very costly lace, the lace
alone costing nearly 600. The garment
was not only the admiration OF many.
but was even an object Of envy TO .
great number on account Of ito beauty.
On Christmas day the lady. In com.
psny with her husband, went 70 church.
and after returning home. she had d.
vested herself OF her cloak. and on
laying it down. noticed that il hsi =
different look TO its usual appearance
An examination revealed the as
tonishing fact that some one hai
with = sharp knife cut OF the lace
around. the lower part OF the cloak,
and that nearly al had been taken OF
evidently in the manner We have men,
toned. As before stated no certain
clue has yet been obtained 10 the per.
pstrator. The value Of the lace stolen
10 about $50. We understand that the
lady states that she ielt what she at one
time fancied was . pulling At her dress.
but thought nothing Of it at the time.
She now feels certain that II WAS at that
moment when the man WAS cutting the
lace from her cloak. The police are Ia
possession OF the above facts aud are on
the lookout for the thiei, with hope Of
successful arrest before long.
