Jury Fail 10 Agree ira Tweed,s Case.
NEW YORK, Jan. 80. The Tweed jury came
in at half past ten, and announced that it was
impossible to agree, and they were accordingly
discharged.
The court room was packed to hear the YER
dict. Tweed was present, buoyant, smiling
and chatting with his counsel, Sheriff Brennan
and Others. 1t is reported that the prosecution
became convinced last week that there would
be a disagreement, and Judge Davis has not
held the jury together any longer because he
believed it would be utterly useless to do So
After the foreman said they could not agree,
the Judge said: Il suppose you have exerted
all efforts to aeree, and 1 do not see that any
benefit can result flom keeping you out longer
At the same time, if any of the rest of the
jury would like to express any opinion on that
subject l should like to hear him, as to the
probability of their agreeing" A juror stood
up and said there was no prospect; they were
the same way since IL o'clock last night
Mr.. Peckham, for fine prosecution, moved a
new trial. The motion was opposed by Messrs.
Field and Bartlett, on the ground that they
were not physically able to attend, in such an
unfit place as the court room, to the interests
OF their client. Judge Davis said he would
decide the question tomorrow morning, and
the court adjourned.

NEW LAUNDRY. Yesterday afternoon a
PRESS reporter visited the new laundry of John
Spencer, on Bradbury Court which leads from
Fore street near India. For some time past
this laundry has done business for all the steam
boat lines, including the Allan line, that run
to this port. Recently it has been enlarged
with a view to the accommodation OF the gen.
eral public, and it has now all the appoint
ments of a modern first-class establishment of
the kind. The employees are experts, and the
overseer is a man very rigid, almost exacting,
in his requirements; so that no poor OF badly
finished work is allowed to be sent away. A
large quantity of the clothes which passed
through the Boston fire-about as unpromising
and dingy looking pieces of cloth as could well
be found-were subjected to cleansing pro-
cess at this laundry, and now look fully as
clean and nearly as good as new. Specimens
of these can be inspected at the laundry or at
Burleighs clothing establishment on Middle
street. The quality of fine work turned out,
such as skirts, ruffies &C., is indeed unrivalled
We take pleasure in calling the attention of
the public to this conveniently arranged and
thoroughly fitted up laundry.

be entertained by the council for moment, but
he claimed that it would benefit the whole pub

done, they should be entitled to consideration.
